SPECIAL INVITATION : "VISHVAGURU" FILM SERIES

PM Modi’s Global Message: Operation Sindoor (War Without War)

"विश्व शांति के लिए भारतीय नेतृत्व का आगे आना एक जरूरत एक आवश्यकता।"
– Inspired by the Mahabharata and modern diplomacy.

  • INR 500 Crore Budget (~$60M)
  • Format: Multi-language Film + Docu-series
  • Theme: Peace, Leadership & Global Harmony
  • Crowdfunding Campaign: Launching Soon
  • A global co-production initiative on India’s contemporary leaders
गीता के अनुसार महाभारत का युद्ध शांति की स्थापना के लिए शक्ति का प्रयोग था। परंतु आज के दौर में ‘युद्ध के बिना युद्ध’ का संदेश ही अधिक प्रासंगिक है। भारत को यह संदेश पूरे विश्व तक पहुँचाना होगा। जनमानस को जागृत करना होगा। इसके लिए भारतीय नेतृत्व को आगे बढ़ना होगा। 'पहले नहीं' (No First Use) जैसे विकल्प अब विश्व शांति की दिशा में अनुपयोगी सिद्ध हो रहे हैं।

✅ Call for Collaboration: Open to international producers & OTTs

Leaders Featured * :

Sh. Narendra Modi, Sh. Amit Shah, Sh. Rajnath Singh, Sh. Nitin Gadkari, Mrs. Nirmala Sitharaman, Sh. Ashwini Vaishnaw, Sh. Shivraj Singh Chouhan & Sh. Gajendra Singh Shekhawat.

A VISIONARY STEP - ESTABLISHING GLOBAL HEADQUARTERS IN INDIA


For decades, the headquarters of global organizations across various sectors have been based in the USA and Europe. It is time for India to take the lead on the world stage and become the new epicenter of global cultural leadership.

🌍 Global Heritage Organization (GHO)
🌍 Global Culture Organization (GCO)
🎬 Global Cinema Organization (GCO)

At the Global Cine Confluence 2026, we proudly propose and initiate the establishment of the following three landmark international bodies with their Global Headquarters in India

India, with its unmatched heritage, deep-rooted culture, and vibrant cinema, is best positioned to host these institutions. These headquarters will not only strengthen India's global soft power but also inspire a new cultural and cinematic dialogue rooted in diversity, tradition, and innovation.

Official announcement to be made in May 2026 during the Global Cine Confluence – Delhi Film Convention & Summit 2026.

जितने भी बड़े संगठन हैं, उनकी स्थापना और मुख्यालय यूरोप या अमेरिका में हैं। लेकिन इन तीन संगठनों (GHO, GCO & GCO) की आत्मा भारत से जुड़ी है। आज तक जितने भी सर्वे, विश्लेषण और रिपोर्ट्स आती हैं, वे यूरोप या अमेरिका से आती हैं। अब समय आ गया है कि हम दुनिया का नेतृत्व करें। सिनेमा, संस्कृति और धरोहर के क्षेत्र में सभी आँकड़े, सर्वे और विश्लेषण भारत से निकलकर पूरी दुनिया तक पहुँचें। यह एक आवश्यक कदम है, जिसे ग्लोबल सिने कॉन्फ्लुएंस में घोषित किया जाएगा ।

AGRI-CULTURE, CINEMA & THE SOUL OF INDIA


Changing the Narrative – “Soch Badlegi, Jamana Badlega”

🌍 A Global Co-Production Call to Film Producers Worldwide

    Why it matters for the cinema industry:

  • It opens a vast, untapped audience base.
  • It creates meaningful, solution-driven narratives.
  • It strengthens rural outreach and cinematic inclusiveness.

Many global leaders will initiate a transformative dialogue at the summit — one that deeply connects cinema with the very soul and soil of India.

“Dangal” (Aamir Khan Starar) is a story rooted in rural culture, and while it is based on sports, it touches the deeper layers of society. It delivered remarkable results in rural China, as countries like India and China share a similar emotional connection with stories of girls, mothers, and sports.

🌾 India is a Krishi-Pradhan Desh – a country where over 80% of the population is directly or indirectly linked with agriculture. Yet, agriculture has rarely been the central theme in mainstream cinema.

We propose to introduce and promote agriculture-based films that reflect the real-life challenges, resilience, innovations, and aspirations of the farming community. This is not just about representation—it’s about impact.
