Hrutul is a 28-year-old storyteller from Ahmedabad, India, working across film direction, lyric writing and composition. His latest work, YOUFORIA: Chapter पाथ, is a HEXAIMMERSIVE visual concert billed as the first of its kind, blending spiritual stories from Indian history and mythology with a critical lens on capitalism.

The concert brings together 17 songs from his #100weeks100songsChallenge, a two-year project (2022–24) to write and release 100 original songs across 100 weeks, spanning genres and languages while exploring mythology, capitalism, spirituality, history, physics, science fiction and human psychology.

A 2018 Whistling Woods International graduate, Hrutul directed his debut Gujarati feature in 2019, becoming Gujarat’s youngest film director at 21. As a composer, he has worked with Sonu Nigam, Mohit Chauhan, Aditya Gadhvi, Kirtidan Gadhvi, Jigardan Gadhvi, Tushar Joshi and Parthiv Gohil. His work finds human stories within ideas too vast to hold.
