Royal Stag Barrel Select Shorts has long championed a distinct vision for cinema – one that brings powerful storytelling to audiences in impactful, bite-sized formats. In a fast-moving world, our films invite viewers to pause, reflect, and engage with narratives that linger.
Over the years, we have released some of India’s most compelling short films – ‘Ahalya’, ‘Chutney’, ‘Ouch’, ‘Devi’, ‘The Relationship Manager’, and ‘Manoranjan’, among others. These films feature acclaimed performances by Radhika Apte, Kajol, Naseeruddin Shah, Shefali Shah, Tisca Chopra, Jackie Shroff, Manoj Bajpayee, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Rajkummar Rao, Jim Sarbh, and more – each bringing depth and nuance to every frame.
We have consistently collaborated with India’s finest filmmakers – Sujoy Ghosh, Neeraj Ghaywan, Tigmanshu Dhulia, Dibakar Banerjee, Imtiaz Ali, Priyanka Banerjee, and Chintan Sarda — each known for their distinct cinematic lens and commitment to storytelling.
We have expanded our cinematic footprint through collaborations with prestigious festivals like MAMI Mumbai Film Festival, India Film Project, and Brahmaputra Valley Film Festival, championing unconventional stories and elevating the craft.
While our growing audience is a testament to the quality and creativity of our films, industry recognition has further reinforced our position. Royal Stag Barrel Select Shorts has been honoured with 6 Filmfare Awards, 7 Kyoorius Creativity Awards, and most recently, ‘The Broken Table’ was shortlisted for the Oscars 2025 — a milestone that reflects our storytelling prowess on a global stage.
Every film by Royal Stag Barrel Select Shorts embodies the ‘select’ spirit: crafted with care, told with conviction, and made to move.
