Jackie Shroff
Rishabh Dudhedia is a cinematographer currently residing in LA. He has worked on multiple projects across the United States as well as a few passion projects in India. His most recent collaboration was with Bollywood veteran Jackie Shroff.
He worked as the director of photography for Zameer, a short film by 7 Marble Productions, starring Jackie Shroff in the lead role. Shroff, a veteran Indian actor with a career spanning over four decades, has appeared in 250 films across 13 languages. He has received several accolades, including four Filmfare Awards, and has starred in critically acclaimed Bollywood movies such as Parinda, Devdas, Border, and numerous other box-office hits.
Zameer was shot over the course of one week, requiring intense collaborative effort from a multidisciplinary team of avid filmmakers. The filmmaking team included a diverse ensemble of people from Colombia, the United States, the UK, and India. Rishabh has had the privilege of training under some remarkable mentors in cinematography. One of his cherished mentors was Anthony Richmond, BSC, ASC, an esteemed English cinematographer, film producer, and director. Richmond, known for his work on films like The Beatles, recently received a lifetime achievement award from the British Society of Cinematographers (BSC), celebrating his vast contributions to the field. Rishabh was also trained by Pascal Lebegue, a talented cinematographer, and David Armstrong, who famously shot six installments of the renowned Saw film series. Their expertise guided Rishabh in becoming the kind of cinematographer he always dreamed of being. His work on Zameer was met with great admiration from his mentors and his parents.
Rishabh's hard work and excellent mentorship from his idols led to an incredible work of art in the form of Zameer, which is currently on a festival run and has already been selected for renowned festivals, including Europe's largest Indian film festival: the 21st Indian Film Festival Stuttgart.
These successes have fueled Rishabh's desire to hone his craft and elevate his skills further. His achievements have created a buzz in the industry, and he has multiple projects lined up in the coming months. He is currently gearing up to work on a short series titled Drummer Girl, which is set to go into production in 2025.
