About The India House

The Ïndia House is directed by Ram Vamsi Krishna and produced by Ram and Abhishek Agarwal. Talking to Hindustan Times in August last year after his film Karthikeya 2 won Best Telugu Film at the National Film Awards, Nikhil spoke about The India House and said, “Despite what people think, The India House isn’t about Veer Savarkar. It’s actually about a bunch of Indian students in 1905 India who…I can’t reveal more. (laughs) Let’s just say this will also be something to watch out for because I want to continue telling great stories.”
