Top reel


From J.J. School of Art to 46 crore views
Ninad Sawant is a Mumbai creator who trained as an artist at Sir J.J. Institute of Applied Art. In 2020 he picked up a phone camera to make short, relatable reels with his friends. Within two months, one of them reached 47 lakh people.
Six years and 700 posts later, his work spans Marathi and Hindi comedy, Ganeshotsav and Mumbai culture, weekend escapes across Konkan and the Sahyadris, and paintings he still makes by hand.
His audience trusts him because what they see on screen is how he lives: Bappa at home every year, monsoon treks on weekends, and a sketchbook that never stopped.
