Yugam Vinayak Executive Producer
Yugam Vinayak – Redefining Punjabi Cinema With a Global Vision
In recent years, Punjabi cinema has undergone a remarkable transformation, stepping beyond regional boundaries and earning recognition on international platforms. At the heart of this evolution is Yugam Vinayak, an executive producer whose work continues to redefine the scope and scale of storytelling in both Punjabi and Bollywood industries. Known for his sharp eye for content and his ability to turn stories into cultural events, Vinayak’s influence is now inseparable from the changing identity of regional cinema.
From Carry On Jatta 3’s roaring box office success to horror thrillers like 1920: Horrors of the Heart, Vinayak has shown that diversity in cinema is not just possible but essential for sustained growth. His steady hand as an executive producer has ensured that films remain both entertaining and professionally executed—a trait that marks him as one of the most reliable figures in the industry.
Now, as anticipation builds for the upcoming Punjabi film Dulla – The Robinhood, Vinayak’s name is being increasingly linked with the broader narrative of Punjabi cinema’s global rise. Though not officially part of its production, his influence in shaping the ecosystem where such films thrive cannot be overlooked.
Elevating Punjabi Cinema
Punjabi cinema once relied heavily on slapstick humor and formula-driven storytelling. But producers like Yugam Vinayak have helped usher in a more nuanced era, where films balance entertainment with cultural representation. His projects have consistently showcased variety:
Mithiye (2025), a film that dives into complex human emotions.
Surrender (2024), reflecting Vinayak’s penchant for suspense-driven storytelling.
Jatt Nuu Chudail Takri (2024), which blends humor with cultural identity.
Carry On Jatta 3 (2023), an iconic comedy blockbuster.
1920: Horrors of the Heart (2023), an example of his Bollywood outreach.
S.H.O. Sher Singh (2022), an action-packed entertainer.
Kade Haan Kade Naa (2021) and Yaar Anmulle Returns (2021), both youth-centric stories.
U Turn (2018), his early contribution to thriller storytelling.
This spectrum demonstrates his versatility and his refusal to be confined to a single genre.
The Buzz Surrounding Dulla – The Robinhood
Punjabi cinema is increasingly looking at international strategies to market its films, and Dulla – The Robinhood is a prime example. Produced under Starmoon Film Production and King B Productions, the film introduces King B Chouhan as a Robin Hood-like character who fights for justice and equality. Its poster launch in Sydney signaled its intent to appeal to overseas Punjabi audiences—a move that mirrors the kind of global marketing vision Vinayak has always championed.
Although Vinayak is not directly part of the film’s crew, industry chatter often ties his name to the new wave of Punjabi films that embrace global narratives. His career, built on international appeal and domestic strength, naturally aligns with what Dulla – The Robinhood represents.
A Producer With Vision
Vinayak’s talent lies not just in production management but also in understanding cinema as a cultural product. He knows that films today are not just about ticket sales in Punjab or Delhi—they’re about streaming deals, international premieres, and cross-border collaborations. His work on Carry On Jatta 3, for instance, tapped into the diaspora audience in Canada and the UK, a demographic that forms a crucial market for Punjabi cinema.
In this context, Dulla – The Robinhood’s international promotions resonate with Vinayak’s larger philosophy: take Punjabi cinema global without losing its cultural roots.
Future Directions
With Mithiye and Surrender on the horizon, Yugam Vinayak’s portfolio continues to expand. As Punjabi cinema edges toward a golden era, his role as a visionary executive producer ensures that the industry remains competitive with Bollywood while carving out its own global identity.
The conversations linking him to projects like Dulla – The Robinhood reflect more than speculation—they signify his status as a thought leader in the industry. Even when not directly involved, his style of execution and influence set benchmarks for others to follow.
