Pankaj Narayan - a man of talent and creativity

He began as a poet, turned towards writing, then became a journalist and now we see him as a film director. Pankaj Narayan - a man of talent and creativity. A small town boy who became an inspiration for all. A self made man. 

He was born and brought up in Muzaffarpur a district of Bihar and completed his basic education from there.  But as destiny would have it, he moved to Delhi in search a better future.  Searching for work in an absolute strange city and struggle to make a living was not quite easy, but who can stop a star that is born to shine.  Soon he started writing for Outlook magazine as a freelance writer.  One things lead to another and he became a freelance journalist. Finally fate was smiling.

When he wrote about political and social issues, it made people think.  His writings had the power to make you smile, laugh and even cry. From politics to education, from society to culture, nothing remained untouched for Pankaj Narayan. It may come as a surprise, but he never took up any post or job in any firm. He remained a freelancer through his entire writing career. “I could never work under someone…taking orders is not   my thing…I work freely, without pressure” , he once said in an interview  .

Along with writing he also joined anchoring and event business. He coordinated  for many world class events, such as “7th Antrashtriya Hindi Utsav”, organized by Aksharam and first pravasi film festival organized by pravasi today group.  

Life took another turn when he decided to try his hand in film business.  He joined the industry as a scriptwriter and learnt minute details of production. “You must learn before you start up a new thing…that’s why I decided to know the film Industry before actually try my hand” he said.

Year 2012, he joined Ath Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. as a writer- director. It was the beginning of a new age. Soon after the joining, he directed some ad films and documentaries. He is currently working on a multistarer feature film as writer-director, which will get on the floor next year. 

He is quite active on the social networking sites such as facebook and twitter. He is popular for his satirist one-liners. He has fan following, mostly youngsters, who love his work.

He has achieved great many things in such short period. And is determined to excel in all his works ahead.  “I am young, and I have much left to do...” he said. For such a man of enthusiasm and talent, sky has to be the only limit. This is just the beginning.
