Julian Karikalan

The Storyteller

Julian Karikalan is an award-winning, Indian-born Australian filmmaker, screenwriter, and storyteller based in Sydney, Australia. His first filmmaking expedition, "Love and Love Only", completed on a microbudget, has been well-received by audiences and marks the storyteller’s entry into the film Industry. It created a strong impact and unique appeal to a global audience who formed a deep connection with its characters. The movie is available worldwide on various platforms, including Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Tubi, and Plex. 

​

"Let's Go Below The Rainbow" is his second filmmaking expedition on a microbudget. The film was inspired by the storyteller's quest in delving deeper into the conversation of the intersection of sexual orientation, religiosity, and societal reactions as well as highlighting a few under-catered yet pressing social issues. The entire project was completed with Julian Karikalan as a 'One-Person Crew' taking care of every aspect of the filmmaking process from script to screen.
