About Us - A Glass Of Whisky

According to Anand Karir, Founder Director, whether you are an artist, a technician, a producer or a director; at the end of the day, the only thing you are answerable to, is that glass of Whisky.

Were you happy with what you did today?

Was this the best you could have done?

Did you put in your best or get the best out of others?

There are so many questions that arise, and each one of them needs to be answered. Not for others, not for the world but for yourself, so you can pat your back with pride and say, “oh boy, you have truly earned yourself this glass of Whisky!”

The Team

Anand Karir

Director/ Producer

DIRECTOR/ PRODUCER/ WRITER
MEMBER OF ‘GRAND JURY – FILM CRAFT, THE NEW YORK FESTIVAL ADVERTISING, 2019
ON GOA-FEST JURY PANEL (ABBY AWARDS – 2010, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015)
THE NEW YORK FESTIVAL ADVERTISING AWARDS 2019 FILM CRAFT: BEST DIRECTOR (FINALIST)
IN 2022, ANAND HAS ENTERED THE LONG-FORMAT FILM MAKING WITH HIS MAIDEN FEATURE FILM AAPDI THAAPDI (MARATHI)

After spending over 15 years in advertising, in 2014, Anand stepped out of his full time advertising job. Having dabbled in directing commercials, while he was still in advertising, he tried his hand at taking it further. With every subsequent commercial he directed, Anand honed his skill. His stellar experience with some of country’s biggest brands in top advertising agencies helped him big, especially when it came to telling brand stories via films.
He has directed films for some of India’s best brands like ICICI, Paisabazaar.com, Policybazaar.com, Rin, Pril, Red Label Tea, Maruti Suzuki, Benadryl, Nirma Advance, Finolex Fans…and not to forget, the famous ‘Mutual Fund Sahi Hai’ campaign for AMFI which took the mutual fund industry to newer heights because of its exemplary and direct story telling which appealed to the core consumer who was, up till now, ignorant about this financial tool.
With A Glass of Whisky Production, Anand hopes to bring to the table some cutting edge brand story-telling coupled with his advertising experience.
