Kuku has launched India’s first slate of AI-generated microdramas at the India AI Impact Summit 2026 in New Delhi, marking its formal entry into AI-powered microdrama production at scale. The launch has taken place at the WAVES Creators Corner during the summit.
The slate has spanned mytho-inspired storytelling, futuristic fiction and superhero narratives rooted in Indian themes and designed for global audiences. The initiative has reflected Kuku’s strategy of combining locally resonant storytelling with AI-enabled production systems aimed at improving speed, scale, quality and personalisation.
At the summit, Lal Chand Bisu, CEO, Kuku, has stated that India has had a significant opportunity to lead the development of AI-native consumer platforms. He has highlighted that Kuku has empowered over 50,000 creators across Bharat and has been deploying AI tools to lower production barriers while improving output quality and creative consistency.
The company has been releasing hundreds of shows each month and has been building capabilities to scale to over 1,000 high-quality, deeply personalised shows per month in the coming years.
Bisu has also addressed the assumption that Indian consumers will not pay for premium content at scale, stating that Kuku’s growth has indicated demand for differentiated, mobile-first storytelling experiences. He has further outlined the company’s expansion beyond Hindi into multiple Indian languages, noting that Kuku has offered content across Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada and Bengali, while strengthening its vernacular presence.
Alongside the slate launch, Kuku has set up an AI-powered Microdrama Experience zone at the summit to demonstrate its AI storytelling stack. The showcase has enabled participants to convert story ideas into structured screenplays, generate poster assets, integrate themselves into scenes using AI-assisted production tools and explore natural-language content discovery.
The demonstration has highlighted Kuku’s integrated workflow spanning pitch, production and promotion, combining content intelligence, personalisation and distribution systems.
“We are delighted to introduce our slate of AI-generated microdramas, marking a significant step in our commitment to putting audiences at the centre of everything we do. By leveraging AI as a creative enabler, we are empowering creators to enhance storytelling, improve production agility and deliver more personalised experiences,” said Lal Chand Bisu, CEO, Kuku.
