Company: Meclusions Studio
Location: Andheri East, Mumbai
Experience: Fresher to 3 Years
Candidates: Mumbai / Mumbai Metropolitan Region ONLY
ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY
Meclusions Studio is developing a new digital streaming and content platform dedicated to discovering and presenting the stories, knowledge traditions, culture, heritage and lesser-explored narratives of Bharat through high-quality original digital content.
Hindustan ki Desi Kahaniyaan — High Production Quality ke tadke ke saath.
We are looking for a curious, research-oriented and strong-thinking Indic Research & Script Associate who can help transform Indic subjects into engaging, responsible and audience-friendly content.
This is a multidisciplinary role combining:
Indic Research + Story Development + Script Assistance + Fact-Checking + Content Development
WHAT YOU MAY RESEARCH
Depending on the project, your research may cover:
- Indian history and civilisation
- Sanatana traditions and practices
- Hindu philosophy and schools of thought
- Vedas, Upanishads, Puranas, Itihasa and related literature
- Ramayana and Mahabharata traditions
- Indian temples, pilgrimage and sacred geography
- Indian festivals, customs and traditions
- Sanskrit literature and Indian knowledge systems
- Ancient Indian sciences, arts and literature
- Historical personalities and cultural figures
- Regional traditions and oral histories
- Lesser-known stories from different parts of Bharat
You do not need to be an expert in every subject. What matters is your ability to research deeply, identify credible sources and learn quickly.
SCRIPT & CONTENT DEVELOPMENT
Your research should ultimately help create content.
You may assist with
- Documentary scripts
- Narration / voice-over drafts
- Episode outlines
- Story treatments
- Animated-story concepts
- Interview research and questions
- Historical / cultural explainers
- Short-form digital content
- Research notes for writers and directors
You will work with senior creative professionals to convert research into watchable stories rather than academic essays.
FACT-CHECKING IS CRITICAL
Indic subjects can contain multiple traditions, interpretations and sources.
You will be expected to:
- Verify names, dates, locations and quotations
- Cross-check important claims
- Identify primary and credible secondary sources where possible
- Clearly distinguish historical evidence from traditional accounts, legends and interpretations
- Maintain research references
- Flag disputed or uncertain information instead of presenting it as established fact
We want curiosity without sacrificing accuracy. WHO CAN APPLY?
We welcome
- Freshers
- 1–3 years experienced researchers / content writers
- Students or graduates of Sanskrit, History, Indology, Philosophy, Literature, Journalism, Mass Communication or related fields
- Scriptwriting / Film-school graduates with strong Indic knowledge
- Self-taught researchers
- Candidates who have independently studied Indian texts, history and traditions
Formal qualifications are practical, but depth of understanding, research ability and writing quality matter greatly.
SKILLS WE VALUE
You should have
- Strong reading and research ability
- Good Hindi and English communication
- Strong writing and storytelling skills
- Ability to compare information from different sources
- Excellent attention to detail
- Curiosity about Indic civilisation and Bharat
- Ability to explain complex subjects in simple language
- Ability to structure research into a compelling narrative
Knowledge of Sanskrit or an Indian regional language is a strong advantage.
THE IDEAL PERSON
You might be right for this role if you naturally ask:
“Where does this story come from?”
“What does the original text actually say?”
“Is this historically established, traditionally believed,
or a later interpretation?”
And then you want to turn that research into something millions of ordinary viewers can understand and enjoy.
WHAT YOU GET
- Work on original OTT, documentary and animated content
- Opportunity to research subjects that can become actual productions
- Experience in professional story and script development
- Exposure to research-to-screen workflows
- Opportunity to contribute to original episodes and documentaries
- Portfolio / professional credits where applicable
- Direct exposure to experienced Film, Television, Animation and VFX professionals
- Opportunity to grow with our emerging content platform
You will experience the journey: Research → Story → Treatment → Script → Production → Edit → Audience
