Ancient Indian Billionaires is not just a story universe for me.

It is a live blueprint of how I think about worldbuilding, mythology, cinema, AI, civilization, trade, memory, and the future.

I’ve always felt Indian mythology was visualized too narrowly, either as fantasy, devotion, or nostalgia.

Trilokya is one part of that exploration.

A city between all 14 Lokas.
Sometimes the visa to get there is your life.

What you’re seeing here is not “content.”
It’s me slowly building a transmedia universe in public using AI, cinema, design, research, and storytelling together.

Part myth.
Part sci-fi.
Part civilizational archive.
Part experiment.

This is the world of Ancient Indian Billionaires.

In the last episode, we descended into Mahatal…
A realm where fear created walls, guards, and endless preparation.
But deeper below lies a world where fear was replaced by something even more powerful…
Desire.
Welcome to Talatal Lok.

Created by Maya Danava, the greatest architect of the ancient worlds…

The goal is simple:
To bring the scale, philosophy, mythology, and imagination of Indian civilization back into modern storytelling through cinema, AI, and worldbuilding.

Not mythology as fantasy.
But as lost memory.

14 Worlds. One Cosmos.

Ever wondered who really financed the rise of the British Empire in India?

I spent weeks recreating one of the most fascinating stories in Indian history using AI filmmaking, from cinematic world-building to character design, historical environments, and visual storytelling.

This isn’t just another AI showcase.
It’s the story of the bankers whose financial power changed the course of history.

Watch the full breakdown on my YouTube channel (link in bio) and let me know what story I should recreate next.

EPISODE 02 — RASATALA LOK

In the last episode, we went to rhe deepest trench of the cosmos - Patal (in linked reel)

Now,
Rasatala — the hidden realm beneath the worlds of men.
A civilization of wealth, illusion, power, and the ancient Demon merchants who believed everything could be bought.

This is Episode 2 of the “14 Lokas” series.
A cinematic exploration of the forgotten worlds described in Indian cosmology.

Another transmission received. Origin: somewhere across the cosmos. 📡

This time, the signal comes from Maharlok—a realm above heaven, where sages live through cosmic ages. Yet even they must leave when the fire of Pralaya rises below.

We’ve travelled through seven worlds below Earth. Now, we rise.

Welcome to Bhuvarlok—where celestial musicians shape light, and countless paths can make you forget where you’re going.

Are you moving forward… or just moving?

An exclusive first look inside my conversation with @merrittmoore

Quantum physics. Professional ballet. Dancing with robots. And one question that connects it all: “Why not both?”

We also explore a harder question: if technology was meant to bring us closer, why are so many people lonely?

Swipe through for a few thoughts from Episode 5 of The Narrative Room: **Choreographing the Future.**

Started from the bottom, now we are here..
Quite literally started from the lower Loka Patala and now finally beginning the journey to the upper lokas. These are few scenes from the airport before I begin the journey above..

Shot an Ad for a couple on the swarga airport.. They had just come from Earth (South Mumbai to be precise) and they seemed to like my work .. Their baby reminded me of my son :)

This family was superfun, they were from Janaloka.. more details on the loka soon..

Snuck in some CCTV footage..This guy was allowed to carry his gada.. I want that privilege on earth

This is my Amaravati collection.. You do not find this on earth as I sell it exclusively in Swarga duty free..

Now this was an AIRBUS, they call it AIRAVAT here.

Met this distressed couple from earth.. they lived a good life for helping others and are now moving up.. i wish them all the happiness of heavens.

Here they also screen for good karma. Please take note earthlings..

The drip game of flight crew here was fop notch.. They made emirates look third world.

No idea where this unc was from.. I suspect he was from Atala.

The swarga airport was bussier than hearthrow..

This is Indra loka crew..

They let me in the cockpit coz of my good karma.

Apparently swarga has their version of @instagram called Shaligram.

Got a swarga-fluencer to advertise Amaravati.

Food is free here unlike Mumbai airport where 1 samosa costs a kidney.

Saw this guy.. You might know him from Talatal.. he has had own Vimana and an airport.. I am sure this was Mayadanav.

These are Panis, the gamblers from Rastala. Wonder what they were doing up here..

The Lokas dock.. Apparently, this here is a neutral ground where no one is allowed to commit any crime. One who is caught is punished in all lokas below before being sent back to hell.

Finally, reached the elevator.. I will keep you guys posted once I reach the next loka.. Follow to watch my journey.. by @shantanu.tungare

On 19 September, two Class 10 students returning from coaching in Jamui, Bihar, were surrounded and assaulted. The girl was molested while people filmed. Police registered a case under POCSO and arrests followed.

Justice after violence matters.
But safety cannot begin only after violence.

India once possessed living martial traditions: Kalaripayattu, Gatka, Silambam, Thang-Ta, Mallakhamb, archery, wrestling and shastra vidya. Strength, discipline and the protection of society were part of education.

Then came the colonial Indian Arms Act of 1878, created after the uprising of 1857 and used to place weapons under British control. Independent India repealed it and enacted the Arms Act, 1959. Today, civilian firearm ownership remains legal under licence and is governed by the 1959 Act and the Arms Rules, 2016. (mha.gov.in, ndal-alis.gov.in, mha.gov.in)

The conversation must go beyond simply putting more guns on the street.

India needs:

• Martial training in schools and communities
• Practical self-defence for women and men
• Legal awareness and emergency response training
• Responsible weapons education
• Transparent, time-bound licensing for eligible citizens
• Severe consequences for mobs and sexual predators

A weapon without discipline creates fear.
Discipline without the ability to defend creates helplessness.

Our gods carry weapons because dharma was never portrayed as passive. The weapon represented preparedness, responsibility and the power to protect.

The journey to @rebrandingbharat 🇮🇳 must begin with recovering its martial traditions.

We deserve the knowledge, discipline and lawful means to defend ourselves.
