Inderveer Sodhi

Biography: Inderveer Sodhi is a Canadian filmmaker, composer, and actor known for intimate, character-driven stories that explore identity and the emotional legacies we carry, woven into a canvas of magical realism. As studio head and creative director of Sodhi Productions Inc., devoted to soul-stirring cinema and music, he has released two globally distributed theatrical feature films and three studio albums. At 19, he began production on his debut feature Monster (2019), a coming-of-age drama set against the backdrop of gang violence among South Asian youth in Surrey. Written, directed, scored, and starring Sodhi, the film premiered to sold-out audiences, became an unsolicited official selection of the International South Asian Film Festival (2019), received national coverage from CBC and Global News, and now streams on Prime Video. His second feature, Confessions of a Superhero (2022), follows an anonymous therapist in the fictional town of Maddenville, saving kids who never had the chance to grow up. The vigilante drama earned Sodhi Productions Inc. its first global distribution deal, leading to a worldwide release on AppleTV. For the role of Samar Khan, Sodhi underwent a dramatic physical transformation, losing 25 pounds after previously gaining 15 for Monster. Sodhi’s next feature, God Power (2027), is a psychological drama about violence that repairs a broken family, casting out their messiah and his dharma. It marks the director’s most emotionally raw and provocative work to date.
