2 Feb
Summary
- Sippy Films restructures to become a character IP-led studio.
- Kuberans Tech Ventures Private Limited provides strategic investment.
- Focus on evolving legacy IPs like Sholay and developing new content.
Sippy Films, an Indian production house renowned for cultural landmarks like "Sholay," is undergoing a significant restructuring to operate as a character intellectual property (IP)-led studio. This strategic transformation is supported by a new investment from Kuberans Tech Ventures Private Limited, led by co-founder Jeet Wagh.
The company, under the leadership of Shehzad Sippy, will focus on thoughtfully evolving its catalog of legacy IPs, which includes "Sholay," "Seeta Aur Geeta," and "Shaan." Simultaneously, Sippy Films is committed to developing new original projects, with a current emphasis on film and animation formats.
This move represents a notable institutional investment in a legacy Indian entertainment entity during a period of rapid market evolution across platforms and formats. Kuberans Tech Ventures views this as an opportunity to leverage the long-term value and untapped potential of iconic intellectual property while building a balanced and future-ready creative pipeline with new IP development.
