Bauddhayan Mukherji aka. Buddy is the Co-founder and Director of Little Lamb Films, a Mumbai-based production company.
Raised in Kolkata, his formative years were deeply influenced by Satyajit Ray, a fact reflected in his storytelling style where performance takes center stage.
In 2007, he co-founded Little Lamb Films with his wife, Monalisa. Since then, he has directed over 450 commercials for leading brands including Unilever, Google, PepsiCo, Coca-Cola, Honda, Hyundai, Colgate Palmolive, Nokia, and more. His contributions have been recognised by Impact Magazine, which named him one of the ten trailblazers in Indian advertising filmmaking.
In 2010, he directed the “Ring the Bell” campaign for Breakthrough, which won a Silver Lion at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. He went on to become the first Indian filmmaker to consecutively win two One Show merits in New York and Spikes Asia Golds in Singapore. In 2015, his “Filaria Free India” campaign for the Sabin Vaccine Institute earned him another Silver Lion.
Among his known works is “The Shower” for Unilever, which won him the National Award at the 67th National Film Awards in 2021. Other notable works include Bin Boy, Breakthrough’s Ring the Bell, and Tide’s Dhobhighat.
His directorial debut feature, Teenkahon (2014), earned him the Aravindan Puraskaram for Best Debut Director in 2015. His second feature, The Violin Player (2015), won Best Feature Film at the Durban International Film Festival.
