Indian-mythology focused entertainment startup Mythik raises $5-M at $50-M valuation
Bengaluru-based entertainment startup Mythik has raised USD 5 million in a funding round from Harsh Jain (Dream11), Blume Founder's Fund, Rajat Gupta (ex-McKinsey & Co), Zubin Bharti Mittal (Bharti Mittal Family Office), Ishan Sinha (Point 72), and Rooshabh Shah (SVAR Projects). Existing investors Sakal Media Group, Patni Family Office, and Parekh Family Office also participated in the round, alongside Mythik founder and CEO Jason Kothari. Mythik's valuation has surpassed USD 50 million post this fundraise. Founded in 2025 by Jason Kothari, Mythik uses artificial intelligence (AI) to recreate Indian mythology, history, and folklore into high-quality, short-form videos. The new funds will be used to build a global entertainment company focused on Eastern storytelling, while further scaling its content production and technology stack.
In May 2025, Mythik had attracted about $15-M from Bitkraft, Visceral Capital and others. For FY25, Mythik had reported about INR 17 Cr in Operating Income and about INR 2 Cr in PAT. (Subscribers to the database can login to view the detailed financials. )
