Ashvin Kumar is an independent Indian filmmaker who has produced and directed several films and documentaries, including Inshallah, football (2010); Dazed in Doon (2010) and the Oscar nominated movie - Little Terrorist (2005). His recent films have attracted controversy as the Indian censor board has denied him the certifications necessary for the films to be shown publicly in Indian cinemas. His latest film, Inshallah, football, is a feature documentary about an aspiring footballer who was denied the right to travel abroad on the pretext that his father was a militant in the 1990s. It premiered at the Pusan International Film Festival and bagged a Special Mention award at the recently concluded Dubai International Film Festival.
