History

Riverbank Studios was set up in 1973 by Mike Pandey in New Delhi and was one of the first film studios in North India at the time. Many feature films, Ad films and Television series were both shot on the premises of the studio and post produced as well. Over the years the studio has leaned towards making conservation driven wildlife films and has been committed to creating awareness generating content.

The studio produces television series, wildlife films and has recently ventured to online content, producing their first 360-degree film on a Nature Reserve in India. In 2017, they produced two films which were broadcast on Animal Planet India - Looking for Sultan and Gyamo - Queen of the Mountains.[2][3] Both films received strong positive review and were aired on both Animal Planet and Discovery India.
