From Faridabad to Filmmaking: The Journey of Aman Bhatia, the Indian Harry Potter Guy
Imagine growing up in Faridabad with dreams as big as making movies like Harry Potter – sounds wild, right? Meet Aman Bhatia, a young creative genius from Haryana, born on October 7, 1997. But how did this small-town boy turn his everyday life into a launchpad for his extraordinary filmmaking dreams?
Aman’s childhood was filled with typical middle-class adventures, but there was something different about him. He was that naughty kid who ignored his mom’s calls to come inside, played all night before exams, and sketched behind textbooks. His creativity was always bubbling under the surface. But what was the spark that turned his curiosity into a full-blown passion for filmmaking? The answer lies in an unexpected discovery.
One fateful day in 8th grade, Aman stumbled upon Harry Potter. Hogwarts wasn’t just a fantasy for him; it was a revelation. “How do they make those moving steps?” he wondered. This question ignited a fire within him. With curiosity as his wand and YouTube tutorials as his spellbook, Aman began creating his own videos in secret 8 years back, dodging parental stress.
The journey wasn’t without its challenges. Balancing his dual pursuits of learning Japanese (due to his parents’ insistence) and mastering filmmaking (driven by his passion) was another challenging chapter in his life. Aman’s days were a blend of confusion and creativity, but his dedication paid off. His Indian Harry Potter parody went viral, earning him the nickname “Indian Harry Potter guy.” With over 650K subscribers on YouTube and a shiny Silver Play Button, Aman was officially on the map. But what was the turning point that truly set his career in motion?
Turning Solitude into Strength: Aman’s Creative Process
A major breakthrough came with an international sponsorship from Storybooks. They offered him $4000. Initially thinking it was in rupees, imagine Aman’s surprise when it turned out to be dollars! This sponsorship allowed him to buy his first professional camera, propelling his dreams forward. And just like that, the Faridabad boy was on his way to achieving the success he had always dreamt of. But what challenges did he face next?
Turning solitude into a strength is a rare and challenging feat, one that often goes unspoken. Aman, too, faced this loneliness, spending countless hours editing videos alone. But gradually, he began to enjoy the process, finding solace and bursts of creativity in the quiet moments. Recognition on social media further fueled his passion, transforming his solitary efforts into a powerful force.
Aman’s vision doesn’t stop at YouTube fame. He dreams of directing a feature film and bringing high-quality VFX movies to India. “I want to direct a feature film and create a stunning VFX movie here in India. I believe I can create something truly extraordinary,” he says with conviction. How does he plan to achieve this dream?
