Saurav Vishnu moved from Jamshedpur, India to New York City in 2003. A graduate of engineering it was of no surprise that he immediately fell in love with the aesthetic beauty of his new city. He pursed an MBA in finance and risk management at St. John's University. He began his professional career as an entrepreneur in the field of telecommunications. His success in the industry however could not overshadow the constant tug his hometown had on his heart. Saurav came to Jamshedpur in 2015 to make a film on lives of people of Jadugora which is 20 kms from Jamshedpur. Upon re-acquaintance with the people of his childhood he found his passion- to tell their stories. The medium by which he chose to tell their stories is film. Tailing Pond is the first of many stories he has yet to tell.
