YRF recruits Ketan-O-Rana as sr manager production & post-prod supervisor
MUMBAI: He’s an alumnus of Amity University where he graduated in journalism, and Whistling Woods where he completed his film production and direction diploma. 14 years later Ketan-O-Rana recently joined YRF – Yash Raj Films as senior manager production and post production supervisor.
Along the way he worked in various capacities in companies such as Equinox Films, Balaji Telefilms, Ramesh Sippy Entertainment either in production or creative. NFDC beckoned and he joined it as a creative director for a couple of years until he was called by Dar Motion Pictures as a writer director – once again for a couple of years.
Bambai Dreams was his next stop, followed by B62 studios where he rose to become post- production supervisor. He had a six month stint working at Mukta Arts where he worked as an associate on Subhash Ghai’s film. He finally went independent founding his own banner Postman Pictures which he ran for 12 years. He then decided may be it would be good to be employed someplace and joined YRF.
“I’ve spent years on sets where chaos meets creativity, navigating the showdown between vision and reality. Now, as post production supervisor at Yash Raj Films, I leverage my background as an associate director, producer, and screenwriter. I thrive on the details and those fleeting moments that elevate a story—whether it’s crafting explosive action sequences or executing the cut that just hits right. The reel never stops rolling, and I’m committed to making every frame count,” Ketan said on Linkedin while announcing his appointment at YRF.
