Ep 6: Swati Shetty: The Courageous Producer

Ep 6: Swati Shetty: The Courageous Producer

Swati Shetty is a producer based in Los Angeles and the Founder & Director of Samosa Stories. She is a Pharmacist and MBA by education.

Swati began her entertainment career at StarTV, followed by Disney. Earlier, as President of Balaji Motion Pictures, Swati put together a successful slate of films, starting with The Dirty Picture, the first-ever female-driven film that had extraordinary success at the box office. She also produced Umrika, a drama that won India's first Sundance award (2015).

Prior to launching her own company, Samosa stories, Swati was Executive Vice President at Imagine Entertainment and moved to the US in 2016 as Netflix's first employee from India. Her most recent success is the release of the much-loved Netflix Original movie, The Wedding Season.

In this episode, Swati shares her courageous leadership journey as a film producer, her experience working and living in the US, and how she creates a brave and beautiful life for herself.

Some insights from this episode:

  • People with a wrong sense of power love it when others are afraid. They love to make people afraid. Don't fall for that because life doesn't begin and end with one episode.
  • We are all global citizens. We could be anywhere, the environment around us could change, we just need to be open to adapt.
  • It is not necessary that because somebody is older they have more wisdom, or because we are older than someone we are wiser than them.
  • Everything doesn't need to be hard. If you know that something's worth it and you wanna go after it, definitely do it , but not everything needs to be that hard.
  • Hire people smarter and better than you only then will you learn and grow.
