The ringleader of imaginary circuses and silent conversations

"Hello, cinephiles and story enthusiasts! I'm Hamid Baig, the multi-hyphenate author-turned-filmmaker who believes in the power of coffee, creativity, and occasional chaos. My journey in storytelling began with the novel 'Little Maryam', a tale that captivated hearts and imaginations. Not one to rest on my laurels, I'm soon unveiling 'Elephant in the Soul', a collection where short stories, poems, and anecdotes dance in a masquerade of words.
By education, I'm a hotelier, graduated from IHM Bhopal, and yes, I can whip up a mean cappuccino! But life had other plans, and I found myself helming a successful market research agency, unravelling the mysteries of consumer minds – think Sherlock Holmes but with more graphs and less deerstalker.
In my 'spare' time, I made short films with friends and family, capturing life's little quirks. This hobby took a serious turn when I packed my bags for NYFA, trading anecdotes for aperture, and tales for takes. The result? A thrilling trilogy of horror movies titled 'Jinn'. As I pen down this bio, 'Jinn Part One' is already sending shivers down the spines at festivals.
So, here I am, a storyteller by heart, a hotelier by training, and a filmmaker by passion, inviting you to join me on this cinematic odyssey. Let's make magic, one frame at a time!"
