The earlier was denied the Censor Board Certificate, while the latter was screened at the Cannes Film Festival and the Florence Film Festival in 2010 thus receiving international attention. Rupesh Paul then directed a Malayalam movie, Laptop/ My Mother's laptop (2008) starring Suresh Gopi, Shweta Menon, Urmila Unni and Padmapriya,[11] based on a short story by Subhash Chandran. In 2010, he directed three short films, Mrigam (The Beast), Pithavum Kanyakayum (Daddy, You Bastard) and Kanni(The Virgin).
In 2011, Rupesh wrote and directed his first international feature film, The Secret Diaries of Monalisa. The movie was shot in the UK, Italy and France. Rupesh developed his short story, "Drakulayude Ezhamathe Vadhu" into a novel and later into a movie, Saint Dracula 3D (2011). Produced by BizTV Network, the movie was made in the UK with a British cast.[12] The film was premièred at the Cannes Film Festival in 2012.[13]

Work projects[edit]

In 2012, Rupesh Paul founded a Film Production Company, Rupesh Paul Productions Limited (also known as RPPL). The company is based in Mumbai, Maharashtra. The first project RRPL produced was Kamasutra 3D which will be released in 2015.
He directed Kamasutra 3D in 2013, which is under post-production stage. The movie starring Sherlyn Chopra[14] is a periodic movie based on the ancient Indian treatise Kamasutra. Inspired by the historic text of the same name by Vatsyayana [15]
Kamasutra 3D also created records with its pre-sale rights[16] at the Cannes where the second trailer and a special edition book of kamasutra were also unveiled.[17] Rupesh Paul says on Kamasutra 3D:
3D appears the best format to portray classic erotica, but it was hardly experimented till recently. It had remained as a tool to give the biggest jolt in horror movies. Nobody predicted that the Chinese stereoscopic porn would be a major hit. In fact, it out grossed 3D film Avatar. In the film, we are trying to give an extra dimension to the sexual positions described in the ancient treatise on the art of love.
The movie was screened at the Annual Cannes Film Festival in 2014.
In 2012 Director Rupesh Paul founded a Film Production Company, Rupesh Paul Productions (also known as RPPL). The company is based in Mumbai, Maharashtra. The first project RRPL produced was Kamasutra 3D.[18] According to the company website, RPPL is an integrated entertainment company, with other divisions like theatrical distribution, marketing and home videos.[19][non-primary source needed]
At the 67th Festival De Cannes (Cannes Film Festival) Rupesh Paul announced four more projects under his banner of Rupesh Paul Productions Limited. These projects were: The Vanishing Act, a fictional movie on a hijacked aircraft over the Indian ocean, 36 MM 3D, a fictional biopic on a reincarnated Marilyn Monroe, Monologues Of An Indian Sex Maniac and Savita Barbie 3D a fiction on two gangs of the Mumbai underworld.[16]
The trailer of The Vanishing Act unveiled at the Cannes Film Festival of 2014, notched up more than 300,000 views in three days.[20] The trailer created controversy with its subject matter of the Missing Malaysian plane MH 370.[21] Defending the movie, Rupesh Paul said that movie though inspired by real life events wasn't cashing in on MH 370[22]
In January 2014 producers hired Paul to direct NaMo, a film loosely based on Narendra Modi.[23] As of May 2014 Victor Banerjee is expected to play the lead role.[24] This would be the first 4D movie in India.[25]
