All their messages, cut into a film worth watching — and a book worth keeping.
Send us the clips you already collected on WhatsApp. We cut them the way a funny friend would — the best bits first, everyone's answers to the same question side by side, Hindi and English captions — and print a book with a page for every person.
Trailer within a day. Film within three. You see the trailer before you pay.
You already did the hard part. You collected the clips.

Get the film, the trailers and the book
The 5–8 minute film, trailers with Hindi and English captions, and — if you chose it — a printed book with a page and a QR code for every person.
Three things, made from the same clips.
5–8 minutes they will watch twice
Not thirty clips stitched end to end. An opening that lands, the funniest lines up front, everyone answering the same question cut together, the songs and dances kept whole, and a close that gets a tear.
Captions in the language you choose, so the grandparents follow the English and the kids follow the Hindi.
60 seconds, in two languages
One trailer with English captions, one with Hindi. Short enough to send on WhatsApp the morning of, and the thing most families end up sharing the most.
The English trailer arrives first, free, before you decide on anything.
A page for every person
A5, printed and bound. Each person gets their best still from their clip, the line that sums them up, the original Hindi where they spoke it, and a QR code that plays their full, uncut message.
The film is for the evening. The book is for the shelf.
Simple. The trailer is free either way.
No payment until you have seen the trailer and decided you want the rest.

Ask about conciergeA real edit, not a template.
Most group-video services put your clips in a row and add a title card. The ones that offer a real edit charge for an editor's afternoon and take a week. We do the edit — on every order, in a day — and it is the kind a friend with good timing would make.
- The funny bits come first.We find the line that makes the room laugh and open with it, not with whoever happened to record first.
- Callbacks.When three people mention the same story, the film knows, and brings it back at the right moment.
- Everyone answering the same question, cut together."What's the one thing she always says?" — twelve answers in forty seconds. That is the sequence people rewind.
- Hindi, English and Hinglish captions.Transcribed in the language it was spoken, captioned in the language it will be watched. Mixed-language clips stay mixed-language.
- Songs and dances stay whole.A performance is never trimmed for silence or talked over. It gets its own moment and the music ducks under it.
- Nothing is a template.No stock intro, no royalty-free piano under everything. The structure comes from what your people actually said.
These are your family's faces. We treat them that way.
- Every link is private. Nothing is listed, searchable or public.
- Nobody sees your videos except the editing pipeline and one reviewer who checks the cut.
- Your clips and our working files are deleted 30 days after delivery.
- Your videos are never used to train anything, and never shown to anyone as an example.
- You own the film, the trailers and the book. Use them however you like.

The practical bits.
How many clips do you need?
Anything from 8 to 60. Around 20–30 makes the best film. Fewer than 8 still works, but the film will be shorter. Each clip can be any length; a 4-minute ramble is fine, we will find the good 20 seconds.
What formats work?
Whatever WhatsApp, iPhone or Android give you: MP4, MOV, 3GP, WebM, and voice notes (M4A, MP3, OPUS, AAC). Vertical, horizontal, dark, noisy — all fine. Up to 2 GB per file, 8 GB per order.
How long does it take?
The trailer within a day of you submitting. The film within 3 days. The printed book ships after you approve the film and usually arrives within a week in the US. If the birthday is sooner than that, write the date in the order and email us; we will tell you honestly what is possible.
Can we use our own song?
Yes, if you have the rights to it — a song someone in the family recorded, or music you have licensed. Upload it with your clips and tick the box. Otherwise we pick from a licensed library by the mood you choose (warm, fun, cinematic or lo-fi).
Which languages?
Hindi, English and Hinglish are what we do best, and the captions are checked by someone who speaks both. Punjabi, Gujarati, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu and Bengali clips are welcome; tell us the language per clip and we caption them in English.
What if someone sends their clip late?
Before you submit, just add it. After the film is delivered, email us the clip and we will cut it in and send a new version; small additions are free within the first week.
Can I change the edit?
Yes. Tell us what to move, drop or keep whole and we will re-cut once at no charge. If you would rather pick everything yourself, we are probably not the right service, and we will say so.
Do you do workplace farewells?
Yes. Same process: collect the clips on Teams, Slack or WhatsApp, send them to us, and the book becomes the thing everyone signs.
