Born in Mumbai, India on 8 April 1977, Sameer was raised in the city until aged 7, when his family shifted base to The Netherlands. Growing up in The Hague exposed him to art, architecture and photography. Combined with a native interest in philosophy, theosophy and history, Sameer realised modes of expression for individual thought and style.
Alongside his study in economics and marketing, a passion for films encouraged Sameer to pursue a strong sense of visual identity, drama and characterisation. It was in his early 20s that Sameer aligned artistic and commercial skills to develop projects for clients such as Veronica and Red Bull in The Hague.
At 27, having moved to London years earlier, Sameer commenced pre-production on his debut feature film Delhi Boom! which he wrote, shot, directed, and edited. The road to completion would be 2 years long and folllowing its first screening at the Cannes Film Festival 2007, Delhi Boom! was appreciated for its unique and experimental quality.
Sameer is currently developing feature film projects under GAP2000 Films' banner in Mumbai till December 2011 and pursuing his passion for commercial and artistic photography. Renowned for his unique lighting style and concept shoots, he continues to build a devoted fan following. Sameer's next feature film, Retardation, begins principal photography in July 2010.
