Faisal Hashmi is an Indian film director and screenwriter best known for pushing the boundaries of Gujarati cinema through innovative storytelling and cutting-edge technology. He made a remarkable debut with ''Vitamin She'', a romantic comedy that turned into a box-office sensation, running housefull for six straight weeks and becoming one of the biggest hits of 2017.
Following this, Faisal broke new ground with ''Short Circuit'', Gujarat's first-ever science fiction feature film. The movie not only introduced a new genre to the regional industry but also raised the bar technically, employing a top-tier crew from Bollywood and South India. Short Circuit was both a critical and commercial success, enjoying a successful four-week theatrical run and earning praise for its direction, story, visual effects, and performances.
Faisal's third outing, the horror-comedy ''Faati Ne?'', became a runaway hit, running in theaters for over 23 weeks (150+ Days). The film created history as the first Gujarati movie to feature Dolby Atmos sound and to utilize motion capture technology — a bold leap in regional filmmaking.
