Dhruv Vyas
Biography
Dhruv Vyas is a self-taught filmmaker from India. With a background in conceptual photography, he has always been drawn to visual storytelling as a way to express abstract emotions. Though he studied engineering in college, Dhruv spent most of his time self-learning through YouTube, teaching himself cinematography, CGI, and music composition.
Before making his debut feature, Deaf to Happiness, Dhruv spent two years as a solo backpacker across India. This journey deepened his understanding of isolation, self-discovery, and human emotions, key themes in his work.
Inspired by artists like David Lynch, Brit Marling, and Sam Lake, Dhruv creates puzzle-like films where metaphors hold deeper meanings and each viewing offers new layers of understanding.
At a time when AI is reshaping creative industries, Dhruv remains committed to pure, handcrafted cinema. Deaf to Happiness was made entirely without AI.
With his debut, Dhruv seeks to carve out his own genre of metaphysical storytelling and is already researching his next film, an expansion of the themes introduced in Deaf to Happiness.
Dhruv's current goal is to create a world with ethics controlled by the audience. An extremely interconnected universe of multiple worlds where the audience chooses what is right or wrong. Depending on their beliefs, they can choose which worlds to be a part of but are unable to escape the choices taken by others. A choose-your-own-adventure in the world of films, where the audience decides the ethics the world is built/evolved upon.
