Dilip Ghosh is the director of Commando. He is an Indian film director and producer. After completing his post graduate diploma in Film Direction and Screenplay Writing he decided to make advertising films in spite of his cult status as a subversive filmmaker in the film school. During his period in advertising he had the opportunity to work with many child actors. He had observed them closely and was inspired to tell their story. This was expressed through his docu-feature film titled ‘Children of the Silver Screen’ (Hindi: Aadhi Haqueeqat Aadha Fasana), for which he won the National Film Award (Special Mention). After making advertising and documentary films for over 25 years, he made his mainstream directorial debut through Commando (2013), which was a box office success.
