    MovieVerse Studios and Beacon Media forge new alliance

    MUMBAI: MovieVerse Studios, the mainstream content arm of IN10 Media Network, has partnered with Beacon Media to launch a first-of-its-kind global content alliance aimed at amplifying narratives from the Global South. Targeting over 3 billion viewers, this collaboration is designed to connect emerging cultural powerhouses—spanning Hollywood, India, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America—through borderless storytelling.

    IN10 Media Network managing director, Aditya Pittie said, “In today’s connected world, the future of storytelling depends on meaningful collaborations that bring together creativity, technology, and reach. This partnership encourages the industry to work more closely, fostering a diverse and inclusive content ecosystem that resonates with global audiences,”.

    “We are entering an era where collaboration, not competition, is the key to success,” said Beacon Media chairman Manoj Narender Madnani. “This alliance is not just about creating content—it’s about reshaping the global entertainment landscape, ensuring that diverse stories reach audiences across all formats and are made accessible worldwide. It’s 1+1=11 in action—where strategic partnerships, such as this one with IN10 Media, backed by visionary entrepreneurs like Aditya Pittie and Anand Mahindra, multiply impact.”

    The partnership will develop feature films, premium series, and bite-sized micro-series for platforms such as Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. The alliance’s first slate includes a Malayalam-language feature film for global release, adaptations of Dr Deepak Chopra’s bestselling fiction, and a range of digital-first projects built for next-generation audiences.

    MovieVerse Studios CEO Vivek Krishnani said, ‘’The Global South is home to some of the most dynamic and culturally rich stories waiting to be told. With this partnership, we are ensuring these culturally rooted narratives reach the global stage in the most impactful way possible. We are excited to develop content that resonates across geographies and platforms, whether it is through compelling cinematic storytelling or strategic digital-first initiatives.”

    With Saudi Arabia and the UAE emerging as major investors in India’s entertainment and technology sectors, the partnership aims to deepen economic and creative collaboration between the regions.

    To lead its ambitious slate, Beacon Media has named author and screenwriter Manini Priyan as head of content. The company also has a production alliance with Fadi Ismail, former director of drama at MBC Group, to create Arabic-language digital content at scale.
