Family background and upbringing
Siddharth Kumar Tewary was born on 23 January 1978 and brought up in Kolkata, India, in a joint middle-class Brahmin household.[6][7] His family came from a non-industry background, providing a grounded environment away from the glamour of entertainment.[8] Tewary was raised in a deeply orthodox and religious family, where his father, a professor, instilled strong cultural and spiritual values through daily rituals and traditions.[8] This devout household emphasized devotion and moral teachings, shaping his early worldview in the vibrant cultural milieu of Kolkata.[8] The city's rich heritage, combined with familial storytelling sessions, exposed him to Indian epics like the Mahabharata and Ramayana from a young age, fostering a profound connection to mythological narratives.[8] From childhood, Tewary harbored aspirations to become a storyteller, inspired by the timeless tales of gods, heroes, and moral dilemmas shared within his family and community.[8] These influences laid the groundwork for his lifelong passion for narrating epic stories, rooted in the spiritual and traditional fabric of his upbringing.[8]Academic pursuits
Siddharth Kumar Tewary completed his schooling at the prestigious St. Xavier's Collegiate School in Kolkata, where he received a strong foundation in academics within a disciplined environment.[6][9] He then pursued undergraduate studies at St. Xavier's College, affiliated with the University of Calcutta, also in Kolkata.[6][9] To deepen his engagement with creative fields, Tewary relocated to Pune for postgraduate studies in Mass Communication at the Symbiosis Institute of Media and Communication, a program that ignited his passion for media production and narrative storytelling.[6][9] Coming from a middle-class academic family with no ties to the entertainment sector, Tewary's deliberate choice of media studies marked a pivotal shift influenced by his growing fascination with epic tales and cultural narratives.[6][9] After graduation, he moved to Mumbai, the hub of India's media landscape, where the vibrant industry ecosystem further shaped his aspirations in television storytelling.[10]Professional career
Entry into the industry
Following his education, Siddharth Kumar Tewary entered the media industry in the early 2000s through advertising, joining the agency Euro RSCG where he handled prominent brands including Sony.[11] Over the next two years, he transitioned to JWT, honing skills in short-form creative writing and campaign development, such as a notable brand campaign for Sony Max that earned recognition at the EMVIES awards.[11][12] Dissatisfied with the constraints of advertising and aspiring to direct and craft long-form narratives, Tewary quit his job around 2005 to pursue opportunities in television production.[11][10] However, as a newcomer without connections in the entertainment sector, he struggled to secure an assistant director position, prompting him to join the marketing department at Sony Max.[11] There, he contributed to promotional initiatives, including the event series Gully Cricket featuring cricket legend Kapil Dev.[11] Tewary's passion for storytelling soon led to a shift within Sony Entertainment Television to the programming team, specifically new content development, where he began ideating original concepts.[11][10] This move marked his "accidental" entry into production, as he later described it, stemming from encouragement by Sony executives like CEO NP Singh to pitch ideas rather than formal training.[13][10] Lacking prior production experience, he faced significant challenges, including navigating funding constraints and learning aspects of creativity, team management, and financials through trial and error in a competitive industry.[13][11]Founding and growth of Swastik Productions
Swastik Productions was established in 2007 by Siddharth Kumar Tewary as a solo venture dedicated to delivering high-quality storytelling in Indian television.[14] Drawing from his prior experience in the media industry, Tewary aimed to create content that resonated deeply with audiences through authentic narratives rooted in Indian culture.[11] Over the years, the company experienced significant growth, marking 18 years of operation by 2025 and solidifying its position as a leading production house in the Indian entertainment sector.[2] This expansion included a strategic focus on mythological content, which became a cornerstone of its portfolio, enabling broader reach and cultural impact across domestic and international markets.[1] In 2017, Tewary founded One Life Studios as a complementary entity to Swastik Productions, broadening the scope to encompass diverse projects beyond traditional television formats.[15] One Life Studios facilitated explorations in international distribution and varied content creation, supporting Swastik's overarching mission while allowing for innovative storytelling approaches.[16] At its core, Swastik Productions' business philosophy centers on crafting epic Indian narratives designed for global audiences, emphasizing cultural authenticity and emotional depth.[17] This vision extends to transmedia strategies, as highlighted by Tewary during a panel on "Transmedia Storytelling: Blurring Boundaries Across Films and Books" at FICCI FRAMES 2024, where he discussed integrating narratives across platforms to enhance accessibility and engagement.[18]Notable television productions
Mahabharat (2013)
Mahabharat, produced by Swastik Productions as its flagship project, premiered on Star Plus on September 16, 2013, and ran until August 16, 2014, marking a significant milestone in Indian television storytelling.[19] Created and with screenplay contributions from Siddharth Kumar Tewary, the series reimagined the ancient epic as a narrative rooted in historical events rather than pure mythology, aiming to educate modern audiences about India's ancient rulers and their legacies.[20][8] Tewary's vision emphasized authenticity in depicting the socio-political dynamics of the era, drawing from the epic's portrayal of governance and dharma to bridge generational understanding.[21] Key creative decisions included meticulous casting to embody the characters' depth, with Saurabh Raj Jain selected for the role of Lord Krishna, bringing a charismatic and philosophical presence that resonated widely with viewers.[22] Tewary's screenplay focused on layered character arcs and moral complexities, prioritizing narrative fidelity to the source material while adapting it for television pacing, which helped differentiate the series from earlier adaptations.[23] The production's scale was ambitious, spanning 267 episodes with a reported budget exceeding 100 crores, featuring expansive sets in locations like Morna near Noida and advanced visual effects to recreate epic battles and divine elements.[24][25][26] These elements, including never-before-seen VFX for sequences like the Kurukshetra war, elevated the show's cinematic quality, making it one of the most technically sophisticated mythological series of its time.[27] The series achieved remarkable reception, securing high TRP ratings that peaked at 9.801 TVTs in December 2013 and an opening week of 6.3 TVTs, the highest for any Star Plus launch in three years, drawing over 6 million viewers weekly.[28] It sparked a cultural revival of the Mahabharata, engaging younger audiences with its blend of education and entertainment, and solidified Tewary's reputation for crafting grand, impactful narratives in Indian television.[29][20]Porus (2017–2018)
Porus is a historical drama television series created, written, and directed by Siddharth Kumar Tewary under his production banner Swastik Productions. It aired on Sony Entertainment Television from November 27, 2017, to November 13, 2018, spanning 299 episodes and chronicling the life of the ancient Indian king Porus and his confrontation with Alexander the Great during the Battle of the Hydaspes in 326 BCE. The series draws from historical accounts of Alexander's invasion of India, portraying the Paurava kingdom's resistance and emphasizing themes of valor, strategy, and cultural pride. Building on the epic storytelling success of Tewary's earlier Mahabharat, Porus represented his venture into historical narratives, aiming to depict pre-invasion India as a prosperous, advanced civilization.[30][31][32][33] Tewary's direction focused on blending historical accuracy with dramatic flair to engage modern audiences, incorporating extensive research into 4th-century BCE India through Greek, Persian, and Indian sources to authenticate elements like warfare tactics, royal attire, and societal structures. The narrative centers on Porus, portrayed by Lakshya Lalwani, as a young warrior rising to defend his kingdom against the invading Alexander, played by Rohit Purohit, whose ambition and tactical genius drive the conflict. Supporting roles, such as King Bamni (Porus's father) by Aditya Redij, highlight familial dynamics and political intrigue, with Tewary emphasizing character-driven storytelling to humanize historical figures while amplifying epic confrontations. This approach allowed the series to explore themes of destiny and empire-building without strict adherence to myth, distinguishing it as a period drama rather than a mythological tale.[30][34][35] Production faced significant challenges, including orchestrating large-scale battle sequences involving hundreds of extras, horse-riding, and combat choreography across expansive sets built on 9 acres at Vrindavan Studio in Umbergaon, Gujarat. Filming extended to international locations in Thailand to capture diverse terrains for invasion scenes, while actors underwent specialized training for period-specific skills like archery and dialect delivery to maintain authenticity over the grueling schedule. The overall production spanned more than 30 months, from initial research and scripting (which took two years) to on-location shoots, culminating in one of Indian television's most ambitious endeavors with a budget exceeding Rs 500 crore. These hurdles tested Tewary's vision, requiring innovative VFX integration for realistic depictions of ancient battles and sieges.[30][35][32][36] The series elevated the standards for historical epics on Indian television, influencing subsequent period dramas by prioritizing high production values and global appeal—it was showcased at the 2017 Cannes TV Festival and later distributed internationally, including in Macedonia. Despite moderate TRP ratings, Porus garnered acclaim for its visual spectacle, boosting interest in warrior-centric narratives and contributing to the genre's expansion beyond mythology. It received several awards, including the Indian Television Academy Award for Best Director (Drama) for Tewary, the Indian Telly Technical Award for Best Costumes, and the FICCI-BAF Award for Best VFX, recognizing its technical achievements in costumes and effects.[37][38][39][40][41]Chandragupta Maurya (2018–2019)
Chandragupta Maurya is an Indian historical drama television series produced by Swastik Productions and created by Siddharth Kumar Tewary. It aired on Sony Entertainment Television from October 15, 2018, to August 30, 2019, spanning 230 episodes and depicting the rise of Emperor Chandragupta Maurya under the guidance of Chanakya to unify ancient India against invaders.)[42] The series draws from historical texts like the Arthashastra, emphasizing themes of strategy, patriotism, and empire-building in 4th-century BCE Magadha. Tewary's vision focused on portraying Chandragupta's transformation from a young orphan to a legendary ruler, with Kartikey Malviya as young Chandragupta and Saurabh Raj Jain as adult Chandragupta, alongside Manish Wadhwa as Chanakya. The narrative highlights political intrigue, battles, and mentorship, blending historical accuracy with dramatic elements to educate on India's unification.[43][44] Produced with high-scale sets and VFX for war sequences, the series featured expansive filming at Film City, Mumbai, and locations in Rajasthan. It received praise for its portrayal of Chanakya's intellect and Chandragupta's valor, achieving solid TRPs and contributing to the historical genre's popularity, though it faced competition from mythological shows.[45] The show solidified Tewary's expertise in period dramas following Porus.RadhaKrishn (2018–2023)
RadhaKrishn is an Indian mythological television series that aired on Star Bharat from October 1, 2018, to January 21, 2023, chronicling the divine lives and eternal love story of Radha and Krishna as central figures in Hindu mythology.[46] Produced by Swastik Productions, the series was created and helmed by Siddharth Kumar Tewary, who crafted a narrative that emphasized the spiritual and romantic bond between the protagonists.[47] The show featured Sumedh Mudgalkar in the lead role of Lord Krishna and Mallika Singh as Radha, whose performances captured the essence of devotion and transcendence, drawing audiences through their portrayal of the couple's journey from childhood to divine union.[46] Tewary's creative vision integrated elements from traditional Hindu scriptures, focusing on the philosophical underpinnings of Radha and Krishna's relationship as a metaphor for selfless love and bhakti (devotion).[48] Unlike his earlier historical epic Porus, which emphasized action and conquest, RadhaKrishn delved deeper into thematic exploration of emotional and spiritual intimacy. The screenplay highlighted key episodes from Krishna's life, such as his childhood exploits in Vrindavan and the rasa leela, while underscoring Radha's role as the epitome of unwavering faith.[49] The production adopted a multi-arc format spanning over five years, evolving through distinct phases like the Vrindavan leelas, Dwarka establishment, and cosmic battles, allowing for expansive storytelling across 1,145 episodes.[50] A pioneering aspect was its incorporation of musical elements, marking it as television's first full-fledged mythological musical with original compositions by Surya Raj Kamal and Jitesh Panchal, including the opening theme "RadhaKrishn" and devotional tracks that enhanced the philosophical themes of dharma, karma, and divine surrender.[51] These songs, often performed during key rituals and dances, blended classical Indian music with contemporary orchestration to evoke the ethereal quality of Vaishnava traditions.[46] The series left a lasting legacy through its sustained popularity, achieving milestones like a success party for 1,000 episodes and consistent TRP rankings that solidified its position as one of Star Bharat's flagship shows.[52] By portraying the Radha-Krishna narrative, it promoted core tenets of Vaishnavism, such as prem bhakti (loving devotion) and the soul's quest for union with the divine, resonating with viewers and contributing to a renewed interest in mythological storytelling on Indian television.Shiv Shakti – Tap Tyaag Tandav (2023–2025)

Shrimad Ramayan is an Indian Hindi-language mythological television series produced by Siddharth Kumar Tewary under Swastik Productions, premiering on January 1, 2024, on Sony Entertainment Television, airing Monday to Friday at 9:00 PM, with the original run concluding in 2025 and re-runs continuing on channels like Sony SAB and Udaya TV.[56][57] The series is an adaptation of the ancient Hindu epic Ramayana, drawing directly from Valmiki's Ramayana and Tulsidas's Ramcharitmanas to ensure fidelity to the original narratives of Lord Rama's life, exile, and victory over evil.[58] This project builds on Tewary's established expertise in mythological storytelling, as seen in prior works like RadhaKrishn.[59] Tewary envisioned Shrimad Ramayan as an authentic retelling of the epic, emphasizing emotional depth, cultural values, and human elements from the source texts to resonate with contemporary audiences while preserving devotional essence.[59] Key casting choices reflect this commitment, with Sujay Reu portraying Lord Rama (Shriram), Prachi Bansal as Sita, and Basant Bhatt as Lakshmana, alongside Nirbhay Wadhwa as Hanuman, selected for their ability to embody the characters' virtues of righteousness, devotion, and loyalty.[60] The production highlights Tewary's dedication to detailed research into scriptures and historical contexts, aiming to present a visually and narratively immersive experience.
