How to approach

Work to the word counts, because they are the whole submission. Their portal asks you to register, then to submit a logline within a hundred words and a synopsis within a thousand. Nothing else is read at this stage, and they say the screenplay is requested only if the synopsis interests them.

That makes the synopsis the sample. Write it as prose that carries the story and the tone rather than as a beat-by-beat summary, because a thousand words spent on plot mechanics reads like a document while a thousand words with a voice in them reads like a film. Keep the script finished and ready to send the moment they ask, since the point of a portal like this is speed once interest exists.

The PreList verdict

Who this is for: writers with a feature aimed at a mainstream Indian audience, and anyone who has been told there is no way into a studio of this size without contacts. There is a published one, it is open, and it does not ask for a fee or a referral.

Who should skip it: writers whose story has no plausible home on this slate. A portal that reads everything still greenlights what it was already looking for, and a thousand-word synopsis is not the place to argue that they should change direction.

The structure here is the honest part. Studios that take full scripts cold end up reading almost none of them; asking for a hundred-word logline first is how a door this wide stays a real door rather than a gesture.
