Some collaborations are strategic. Some are creative. And then there
are those rare unions that feel inevitable.
Like when National Award–winning vision meets legacy, scale, and
destiny.
Acclaimed filmmaker Mansore, one of India’s most respected voices in
contemporary cinema, now steps into Hindi cinema with Juliet — a film that
marks his Hindi debut and the beginning of an exclusive creative collaboration
with Neeraj Tiwari, the visionary producer and founder of Aagaaz Entertainment
Pvt. Ltd.
The unveiling of Juliet’s teaser poster signals more than a film
announcement. It announces a meeting of two cinematic philosophies — Mansore’s
uncompromising storytelling integrity and Neeraj Tiwari’s legacy-backed,
future-facing vision.
Mansore’s journey is already etched into Indian cinema history. A
filmmaker celebrated for his emotional honesty and social depth, he is the
recipient of three National Film Awards, two Filmfare Awards, an International
NETPAC Award, and a State Gold Medal. His cinema has never chased applause — it
has earned it. With Juliet, Mansore brings his rare, rooted voice into Hindi
cinema, promising a film driven by soul, substance, and quiet power.
At the heart of Juliet stands Neeraj Tiwari — producer, distributor,
entrepreneur, and a man whose understanding of cinema spans generations.
Carrying forward a family legacy in film and entertainment since the 1960s,
Neeraj’s early years in distribution helped shape the success of some of Indian
cinema’s most iconic and commercially defining films, including Kabhi Khushi
Kabhie Gham, Rang De Basanti, Apaharan, Aashiq Banaya Aapne, Jai Veeru, Shaadi
Mein Zaroor Aana, and Patel Ki Punjabi Shaadi.
That instinct for scale and storytelling naturally evolved into
production under Aagaaz Entertainment, where Neeraj backed films such as Ek
Jhalak, Saath Tareekh (Filmfare-nominated), Iccha: The Lust, Tibba, and
Postman. His creative universe expanded further with Aagaaz Music,
collaborating with leading playback singers and delivering chart-worthy tracks.
Yet Neeraj Tiwari’s stature goes far beyond cinema. A formidable
entrepreneur, he is the owner of Ace Ship Navigation Pvt. Ltd., operating
across India and Dubai with a fleet that includes five oil tankers, and the
founder of a maritime college, bridging industry, education, and global trade.
It is this rare synthesis of creativity and command that defines Neeraj — a
producer who understands both emotion and enterprise, art and ambition.
Juliet is produced by Neeraj Tiwari, Mukesh Gupta, and Rohit K, with
Chitra Vakil Sharma and Kavita Sshibag Kapoor as co-producers. Discussions are
currently underway with well-known actors to lead the film, with announcements
expected soon.
The project also aligns with Aagaaz Entertainment’s rapidly expanding
global footprint. Recently, the banner announced a global action-comedy
starring Sanya Malhotra, co-produced with Ratpack Stories and Travelin’ Bone
Entertainment (USA) — reaffirming Aagaaz’s commitment to internationally
resonant, story-first cinema.
With a power-packed slate of five films planned for 2026, Juliet
stands tall as Aagaaz Entertainment’s flagship statement — a film that reflects
intent, integrity, and imagination.
When Mansore’s cinema of conscience meets Neeraj Tiwari’s cinema of
legacy and scale, the result is not just a film — it is a moment.
And Juliet is only the beginning….
