Background

Yoodlee Films was set up by Saregama India Limited, the recorded music company that is part of the RP–Sanjiv Goenka Group, as a vehicle to enter the feature film business. Saregama, one of the oldest music labels in India with origins in The Gramophone Company of India, expanded into video and film content with Yoodlee as a dedicated label for original cinema.

The label positions itself around tightly budgeted, content-led films rather than star-driven productions, with an emphasis on screenplays adapted from books, short fiction and real-life material. Several of its projects have been released directly on streaming platforms, while others have had theatrical runs.

Operations

Yoodlee Films develops, finances and produces feature-length projects across genres, including drama, thriller and social-issue films, in Hindi and other Indian languages. The banner has worked with both established and first-time directors, and has partnered with streaming services such as Netflix and ZEE5 for distribution of its titles.

Significance

As a studio-backed independent label, Yoodlee Films is often cited as part of the broader shift in Indian cinema towards mid-budget, content-driven productions made for hybrid theatrical and digital release. Its model also represents Saregama's diversification from music publishing and licensing into original audiovisual content.
