About Red Chillies VFX
Red Chillies VFX is a Mumbai-based visual effects and post-production studio established in 2006. Operating as an autonomous visual effects division of Red Chillies Entertainments Private Limited, it works on theatrical features, streaming productions, commercials and music videos. Its production work spans Hindi cinema, South Indian films and international productions.
The studio provides visual effects support from early planning through finished imagery. Its capabilities include pre-visualization, concept design, CGI asset creation, character animation, digital environments, matte painting and complex compositing. On-set supervision and sequence supervision support its work on effects-heavy productions, alongside crowd multiplication and simulations involving fire, water, explosions and destruction.
Character and effects work
Digital humans, facial de-aging and photorealistic character replication form a significant part of the studio's work. On Fan, it contributed to the visual differentiation of Shah Rukh Khan's dual roles through facial transformation and character replication. For Zero, its work included complex alterations to character proportions. Its earlier superhero work on Ra.One involved more than 2,800 visual effects shots.
The studio's subsequent film work includes visual effects and action enhancement for Jawan and Dunki, alongside contributions to Animal. Its broader filmography includes productions such as Krrish 3, Chennai Express, Phillauri, Bulbbul and Shershaah.
Integrated post-production
Alongside visual effects, the studio offers digital imaging technician services covering data management, on-set live grading and digital workflow support. Its integrated Redchillies.color division provides digital intermediate color grading and mastering for theatrical and streaming releases. These capabilities sit within a production pipeline that also includes CG animation, compositing and visual effects research and development.
The studio serves both Red Chillies productions and external clients. Its business extends to other film banners, streaming platforms including Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, and international co-productions.
