Dr.Mandeep Singh Chhatwal
Entrepreneur and Film Distributor
Co Founder and CEO – Intellectual Punjabi Chamber of Commerce
Mandeep started his career in the year 2010 in the hitherto relatively scantily known and barely publicized Punjabi Cinema. His first movie was Yaar Anmule which he marketed and promoted in the New Delhi/NCR region. Incidentally, Yaar Anumule turned out to be a blockbuster and found its niche among the youngsters. Very soon thereafter, in 2013, Mandeep ventured in film production and produced artistes such as Diljit Dosanjh, Jimmy Shergill, Harish Verma, Ravinder Gerwal, Mukul Dev, Binnu Dhillon…and the list goes on.
Once Mandeep found his calling in the Punjabi film industry, and the industry got its well-deserved recognition, he took his endeavors and efforts a step further and in 2015 entering the film distribution business. So far, their banner (mention name) has distributed more than 50 films. This is in addition to what he considers his current major role as Co-Founder and CEO of IPCC.
Apart and separate from that, Mandeep has also been A.Director (India) of Asian-African Chamber of Commerce & Industry (AACCI) since 2017. AACCI organizes summits, conclaves, and other business networking and social activities at India and international level. As part of his role as a director, Mandeep was responsible to organize a fusion event where the international chambers event was amalgamated with the first-of-its-kind award ceremony – the Passion Vista Awards Punjabi – where more than 40 Punjabi artists, singers, devotional performers were honored. The highlight of this event was the achievement that it was for the first time that the ambassadors from 15 African countries were witnesses to live performance of Gatka – the famous yet rare Sikh martial art form.
Being born in a Sikh family, Mandeep has naturally imbibed the tenets of Sikh religion, including the belief in the spirit of sharing and giving.
Apart from the above achievements and endeavors, which he humbly considers an opportunity to give back to the community, he has held the following roles and positions:
1. Member, Delhi Minorities Commission (Advisory Committee), Government of NCT, Delhi.
2. Chief Nodal Officer, Government of NCT Delhi.
3. Advisory Member, Ministry of commerce & Industry, Government of India.
4. Secretary, International Human Rights Organization.
5. Mandeep works with 50+ political and social entities as well as NGOs at State/National level.
On a more personal front, Mandeep has been a true son of Delhi, having been born and raised in here. He is currently living here with his parents, his wife and son.
