Over the past three decades, Namit Malhotra has been a trailblazer in both Hollywood and Bollywood. He has become a leading force in Hollywood, with a significant share in some of the biggest movies in the past. It’s a feat for any Indian to have his production’s name on the opening slate of a Hollywood production. Now, Namit is gearing up for his big production, “Ramayana,” as a co-producer.
Regarding his recent success with The Garfield Movie, Namit Malhotra exclusively shared with News18, It’s varying degrees of involvement with every project. Garfield is out already and doing pretty well. With that movie, we actually created the whole film with the animation studio, so every frame in Garfield is our work.
Malhotra acknowledged the success of The Garfield Movie and hinted at the possibility of a sequel. “It’s early to confirm a sequel, but if the numbers continue to stay strong, why wouldn’t we? We’re all excited about seeing Garfield become a new character in people’s lives. Now that I’ve said it to you, I’ll make sure that everybody else on our partnership team understands that I want to make that point without question – it must be better and different than the first so we give audiences a reason to feel enthused about it again.
In addition to producer credits on Ramayana and The Garfield Movie, there are more high-profile projects in the pipeline, including the upcoming feature film Animal Friends for Legendary Entertainment. Whether he’s securing financing, collaborating with directors, or building a brand new VFX studio to accommodate production, as he did for Furiosa in Australia, Malhotra is also the ultimate storyteller committed to creating content for a global audience and the most important Indian paving an unprecedented path for India, globally.
