The Legend of Tatya Vinchu

This character is a cornerstone of my family's legacy in Marathi cinema. From the original concept to the upcoming sequel, see the craftsmanship and evolution of the iconic villain Tatya Vinchu from the 'Zapatlela' films.

Hyper-Realistic Creature & Practical Effects

I specialize in creating lifelike creatures that bring a tangible reality to the screen, something CGI alone cannot replicate. This includes detailed fabrication and on-set puppeteering for film promotions and cinematic sequences.

Brand Mascots & Advertising Campaigns

I design and perform with brand mascots that give companies a memorable voice. From national healthcare campaigns with stars like Anil Kapoor to fun ads with cricketers like Rohit Sharma, my puppets help brands connect with their audience.

Stage, TV & Live Performances

My work extends beyond film sets to live television shows, large-scale concerts, and award ceremonies. I create custom puppets and perform acts for a variety of formats, from talent competitions to grand stage productions.

A Family Legacy in Puppetry

Puppetry is in my blood, passed down through generations. I am proud to continue the work started by my grandfather and popularized by my father, Ramdas Padhye, blending our family's traditional art with modern innovation.

Additional Work & Fun Projects

Beyond major films and ad campaigns, I love using puppetry for all kinds of creative expression. This includes creating fun social media content, contributing to social causes, and exploring different characters.
