Mumbai will be home to Netflix's first global post-production unit

Five years ago, Netflix started its journey in India, bringing stories of the world to India and taking Indian stories to the world. India’s vast diversity and cultural heritage presents a spectacular window of storytelling, from books and songs to plays and folktales.

Taking a step forward in its journey, Mumbai will be home to Netflix’s first fully owned, live-action, full-service post-production facility globally.

To be fully operational by June 2022, the facility will have 40 offline editing rooms designed as a flexible, collaborative and inspiring environment for showrunners, directors, editors and sound designers to create their best work.

With innovation and collaboration as the key focus, the facility will pioneer advanced media management workflows that will allow a seamless partnership with India’s post-production community.

Indian audiences love diverse stories, whether it is the preschool hit series Mighty Little Bheem, International Emmy winning series Delhi Crime, or films such as Guilty, Ludo, Pagglait and Paava Kadhaigal.

Committed to India, Netflix invested Rs 3,000 crore in local programming over 2019 and 2020 to build a universe of Indian stories. This March, it announced a line-up of 41 titles featuring more variety and diversity — from the biggest films and series to gripping documentaries and reality, and ingenious comedy formats. It launched NetFX last year, a platform that enables multiple Indian artists to work on VFX for titles globally. It is investing in the latest technologies and skill development through multiple certifications and training workshops in post-production, script writing and other aspects of creative production.
