The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, but sometimes it chooses to shape the magic from behind the camera!
Armed with a Mass Media degree from K.J. Somaiya College, Prachi Dubey daughter of the veteran General Secretary of the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE), Ashok Dubey,
kicked off her media career at Radio Mirchi. She later transitioned into mainstream Bollywood, securing a key role as an Assistant Director (Costume) for Ahmed Khan’s highly anticipated action-comedy,
“Welcome To The Jungle”
backed by ace producer Firoz Nadiadwala. The film features one of the largest ensemble casts in recent Indian cinema history – Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Raveena Tandon, Jacqueline Fernandez, and Disha Patani.
Stepping into a high-octane project of this scale is no small feat. As part of the core directorial costume team, Prachi has been instrumental in managing complex wardrobe logistics and continuity for dozens of top-tier stars simultaneously. Translating the grand sartorial visions of celebrity designers into seamless reality across explosive action sequences and giant musical numbers.
Masterfully navigating the high-pressure environment of a massive commercial set.
For decades, her father Ashok Dubey has stood as a pillar of support for millions of off-screen technicians and workers across the Hindi film industry. Now, seeing his own daughter power through the ranks as a dedicated crew member brings his cinematic legacy full circle.
Prachi’s meticulous work behind the scenes proves that the true backbone of Bollywood is its disciplined, hard-working crew. Huge congratulations to Prachi and the proud father, Ashok Ji, on this incredible cinematic milestone!
