Kashyap was one of the founding members of the production banner Phantom Films, along with Vikramaditya Motwane, Madhu Mantena and Vikas Bahl before it was dissolved in October last year after after seven years of partnership. Founded in 2011, Phantom Films produced many Bollywood films like Queen , Masaan , Lootera , and Udta Punjab . Kashyap has also bankrolled the upcoming biographical drama, Saand Ki Aankh . Starring Bhumi Pednekar and Taapsee Pannu in the lead, the film is based on the octogenarian sharpshooters Chandro and Prakashi Tomar from Uttar Pradesh. Originally titled Womaniya, the film was renamed Saand Ki Aankh, following a title rights dispute .
