About The Filmmaker
Writer, Director, and Producer. Mike Ahuja has been considered by many
Hollywood heavyweights to be not just an innovative filmmaker in the
vanguard of American filmmaking but a true DIY figure and bad boy of the film
world. Michael "Kumar" Ahuja has spent many years studying the surrealist movement
and it's impact on present day media, with this knowledge he manifests an inventive
style yet to be attempted by the American filmmakers of our time.
After analyzing Andre Breton's "Surrealist Manifesto" as well as other
key literary works of the movement, Kumar took time to learn and understand the
psychological aspects of surrealism, as created by Sigmund Freud.
The seeds were planted and Kumar decided to approach surrealism from
the visual coin by breaking down artists such as Salvador Dali, Man Ray, and Rene
Magritte.
Kumar's first feature film, "Love Sick Diaries" follows an internationally renowned
documentary on the world of electronic music (One Last Adventure), as
well as various political shorts produced while completing a Film degree at the
University of California.
