Director Statement

"Mandala" reflects my own struggles with pride and the desire to prove myself. Making this film was my way of addressing those struggles, finding redemption, and embracing art for love, not ego. It’s more than a film, it’s my introduction to the world as a storyteller, creating from a place of authenticity and self-awareness.
