Mumbai: Few names in the Indian entertainment business carry the depth of experience that Sajid Qureshi does. A veteran of the film trade for over 20 years, Qureshi has built a multi-vertical empire spanning film rights trading, digital media, film production, restaurants, and digital out-of-home advertising. As founder of Inbox Pictures, T3 Streaming Private Limited, and the fast-rising digital network Buzzzooka, Qureshi today stands at the intersection of cinema, streaming, and new-age media.
The Rise of Buzzzooka
Drawing on his deep industry access, Qureshi launched Buzzzooka in 2024 as a next-generation entertainment network covering Bollywood, OTT, television, celebrity culture, fashion, fitness, and lifestyle. In just over two years, the platform has scaled rapidly, running multiple dedicated channels with its flagship Buzzzooka Prime, Scrolls and Spotlight command strong engagement.
What sets Buzzzooka apart is its insider access. The platform delivers exclusive celebrity interviews, behind-the-scenes footage, real-time paparazzi updates, and film promotions directly from industry sources. With an in-house production team and category-focused content, Buzzzooka emphasizes originality over recycled news, building genuine audience loyalty and carving its own space in India's digital entertainment landscape.
The Trading Powerhouse
20 Years, 2000+ Films: The backbone of Qureshi's empire is his film rights trading business, a two-decade journey through which he has purchased and traded more than 2,000 films across Hindi and South Indian cinema. Through T3 Streaming, Qureshi has built one of the most trusted rights facilitation operations in the country, dealing in OTT and satellite rights with all major streaming platforms and broadcast networks in India.
His trading portfolio reads like a who's who of Indian blockbusters — RRR, Kantara Chapter 2, Don No 1, Lal Salaam, Vettaiyan, Aranmanai 4, and Akhanda, among hundreds of other prominent titles across Bollywood, Tamil, Telugu, and Kannada cinema. This scale of transactions has made Qureshi a key bridge between producers and platforms, giving him unmatched visibility into content valuation and audience demand across languages.
Inbox Pictures — The Production Banner
Founded in 2016, Inbox Pictures has produced commercially engaging films across genres. Nanu Ki Jaanu, starring Abhay Deol, mixed horror and comedy, while FryDay, with Govinda and Varun Sharma, focused on family entertainment. Other projects include, Bad Boy with Namashi, Amrin and legend director Rajkumar Santoshi_Incar_ with Ritika Singh (National Award Winner for Salaa Kadoos) and an upcoming untitled film with Ayush Sharma. The banner continues to develop new projects alongside Qureshi's trading and media operations.
Beyond Entertainment: Restaurants and Digital Screens
Qureshi's ambitions now extend well beyond the screen. He has entered the restaurant business in year 2016 with brand like Sin City and now is set to open 10 QSR (Quick Service Restaurant) outlets with brand name FryDum in Delhi this year, a bold expansion into India's fast-growing food services market. In parallel, he successfully build a brand Fodxpert as digital screen promotion network placing high-impact advertising displays at restaurants and high-footfall lifestyle venues — merging his media expertise with out-of-home advertising to create a new touchpoint for brands and film promotions alike.
Vision for the Future
Speaking on Buzzzooka's two-year milestone, Qureshi outlined a larger vision — expanding T3 Streaming into joint-venture film production, strengthening distribution, and taking his brands global.
"We are not just building another entertainment platform; we are creating a structured, original, and audience-centric media ecosystem that will redefine digital storytelling in India and beyond," Qureshi said. "Our goal is to move from rapid growth to industry leadership by focusing on quality, innovation, and meaningful connections that endure far beyond viral moments."
