Short film · Corporate revenge thriller · Made with ShowMaker Studio

The Empire of Ash (Raakh Ka Samrajya)

The daughter of one of his victims uses a ruthless tycoon's own sons as the keys to his downfall.

The story

Anand Malhotra built his empire by being ruthless, and his downfall has been ten years in the making. In a single stormy Mumbai night, Maya walks into the Malhotra penthouse as a fiancée and walks out owning everything the family built.

Anand spent decades destroying anyone in his way. He never pictured the daughter of one of his victims using his own sons to bring him down. Kabir thought he was the cold one. Aryan thought he was the free one. Both were just pieces on her board.

Don't expect a love story. This one is about revenge.

How it was made

The Empire of Ash was made in ShowMaker Studio.

The cast has four people: Maya, Anand, Kabir and Aryan. That makes the studio's @references important. Each character has a character sheet and a fixed voice, so every face and voice holds across the penthouse scenes.

What to take from it

Give each brother one label, like the cold one and the free one. Then the audience can follow a power game between four people in two minutes.
