Saurabh Monga is a New Delhi–born cinematographer whose work seamlessly bridges advertising and narrative cinema.
In advertising, Saurabh has brought a distinct visual style to some campaigns, lensing films for Innoviti - Shubh Laabh, Facebook’s “Nayi Shuruaat,” Google’s “Search Pe Shopping,” Nescafe’s “Sabor Del Cambio,” as well as brands such as Moov, Campa Cola, Polycab Fans, Hero MotoCorp, and Samsung. His ability to craft visuals that are both cinematic and brand-forward has made him a trusted collaborator for agencies and directors alike.
Alongside advertising, Saurabh has also carved a strong presence in narrative storytelling. He has served as Director of Photography on acclaimed feature films such as The Gold-Laden Sheep & the Sacred Mountain, Candela, Agra, and most recently on the Netflix Original Series Kohrra. His short films—including La Carga, El Destetado, and Tiznao—have further showcased his versatility across formats and geographies.
His work has travelled to Cannes, IDFA, Toronto, Rotterdam, Málaga, MAMI, Havana, and Viña del Mar, and in 2019 he was one of just five Asian cinematographers nominated for Achievement in Cinematography at the Asia Pacific Screen Awards. An alumnus of Berlinale Talents (2017), he continues to split his time between India and Latin America, bringing a truly global lens to every project he undertakes.
