Ankit Kothari - Storython Avis 

Ankit helped me write the story from scratch to make my first draft. I had learned many technical terms and frameworks as well. Also, motivated me to write and clear my mind for achieving my dreams and aspirations about writing and my life

I’ve been a part of Storython since October 2023. According to me the most unique aspect of this course and the Storython community is -- Mindset Mastery – this is the foundation of Storython. The Personal Codex that we created for ourselves with our mentor Ankit Sir’s guidance gives us a sense of purpose and constantly offers us a direction as to where we should be headed to. It is the best guide to begin our journey with. It gives us the confidence that no matter how daunting the journey looks like, we can still achieve our goals if we have the right mindset and an actionable plan towards it.

Now talking about the writing part -- journaling my thoughts and translating my own personal experiences into interesting story ideas has been an amazing experience, along with a bouquet of other techniques that help me write and improve my script. Each tool and technique that we’ve learnt in Storython is an invaluable lesson in the craft of screenwriting.

Finally, being a part of the Storython community fills me with hope, happiness and fulfillment. It is the constant motivation and guidance from Ankit Sir, and interaction & feedback from our fellow members that I admire a lot and keep looking forward to. Our Inner Circle sessions have been so empowering, not just towards screenwriting, but also towards our overall mindset development. This is the real joy of being in a community like Storython!

I joined Storython as a Silver member and found it extremely rewarding. Understanding the entire system of writing in the film, Television Industry and OTT was a big gain for me. This facilitates a novice's entry into the industry. We were also instructed about how not to get exploited as freshers in the industry. The content was too extensive covering all the aspects of script writing. We were also provided opportunities to apply whatever we learnt through writing our own scripts and narrating among the fellow writers to get constructive feedback. Under the guidance of Ankit Sir, I also became a member of SWA and registered synopses of 3 stories. I recommend joining Storython to anyone who aspires to become a Script writer.

If you want to waste your time figuring everything out alone, you're welcome to stay stuck in the learning loop.
But if you’re serious, find a good mentor.

I’ve found mine — and no, not in the sky — just look above this comment (unless you're having vision issues 😄).

Because trust me, you won’t learn what ACR is… or what marshland treatment means… or any of the real stuff that matters — just by randomly scrolling through YouTube.

Yes, YouTube is a vast ocean.
But unless you know how to swim and have a compass, you'll either get lost or drown in it.

It’s your choice.

Right above, there’s someone who can guide you, or at least act as your compass.

🔁 Trust the process.
There’s no perfect timing.
No perfect script.
No perfect film.

Just finish your milestones — and if you love storytelling, enjoy the ride.
Set deadlines if you can, but don’t forget to have fun while writing. (Wish you lots of conflict and solutions.....in story/screenplay 💥😎😊)

This course exceeds expectations on nearly every front. The coaching is exceptional — thoughtful, structured, and impressively detailed. What sets it apart is not just the sheer number of storytelling techniques taught, but how deeply each one is explained, along with the ongoing support to resolve doubts and questions.

What truly makes the program unique is that it doesn’t stop at craft — there’s significant focus on mindset as well. Topics like vision, discipline, and time management are woven into the learning experience, which helps you not only become a better writer but also a more focused and consistent one.

The community is still growing but already includes a healthy mix of beginners, intermediate, and advanced writers and filmmakers. The environment is incredibly supportive and motivating, with a standout culture that encourages growth without ego.

As a beginner, I couldn’t have asked for a better roadmap. The step-by-step approach is clear and actionable, and for anyone willing to put in the work, the path to meaningful progress is right there. It’s rare to find a course that genuinely delivers on everything it promises — this one does.

When desperately looking for scriptwriting books or online courses, I stumbled upon STORYTHON. I attended a free ‘Super Writer Masterclass’ and was immediately hooked.
I realised the mentor, Ankit Kothari, is not only knowledgable but also passionate about writing and more importantly equally passionate about sharing his knowledge and experience. Having won a National award for his short film ‘Paanchika’, he always gives reliable and genuine inputs.
Silver membership is a foundation course where the basic techniques are introduced in a systematic manner with the help of mind-maps.The course is structured in such a way that takes you step by step right from journalising your lived experiences or inspirations from the outside world and slowly developing them into themes. Themes are further developed into loglines, identifying the protagonist, antagonist, secondary characters and wants & needs of the characters.
This seemingly daunting process is made easy with the help of worksheets which are provided at the end of each session. These worksheets have proven immensely useful for me while writing my scripts or even analysing films/ scripts created by others.
One thing that makes this course shine as compared to other courses is the emphasis on developing the correct mindset. Writing techniques can be found anywhere, that too for free, but without the right mindset, gathering information just becomes an intellectual activity without any actionable roadmap and no tangible outcome.
Ankit shared techniques like SAVERS, Affirmations, Personal codex etc which helps us train our mind to commit and be focused on this journey as a script writer. He impels us to narrate our stories no matter at what stage, within the writers’ community which gives us great confidence to face potential directors/ producers or investors. Genuine feedback from fellow writers helps us to improve our craft on daily basis and be accountable.
For me personally, a mixture of affirmations, intentional effort and disciplined writing has gotten me opportunities to pitch my concepts to production houses, which otherwise would have been lying in my drawer eating dust for don’t know how many years!
I’m really grateful to Ankit for designing this wonderful course.

More Power To You, entire STORYTHON team.

Enrolling in the scriptwriting course by Storython Community has been one of the most rewarding decisions in my creative journey. Guided by Ankit Kothari—a National Award-winning filmmaker and an incredibly generous mentor—the course offers much more than just writing techniques. It offers a complete transformation in how you think about storytelling.
Ankit's mentorship is the heart of this program. His insights into structure, character, and subtext are eye-opening, and his feedback is always clear, honest, and empowering. He doesn’t just correct your writing—he helps you evolve your voice and vision. Learning from someone of his caliber, who is so grounded and committed to nurturing new voices, is truly a privilege.
The course structure is thoughtfully designed, combining theory, practical writing exercises, and real-time feedback. What makes Storython special is also the community—fellow writers who are passionate, supportive, and just as eager to grow. It felt like a creative family where everyone was encouraged to take risks and dig deep.

Thanks to this course, I’ve gained clarity, discipline, and the confidence to shape my ideas into a screenplay I believe in. I now approach writing with a much stronger foundation and a deeper connection to my purpose as a storyteller.

Being a budding writer, I have found the course to be well structured, and informative enough to begin with. The sessions are interactive, and the activities given afterwards makes you apply the knowledge effectively. However, the exciting part is that it does not limit to the creative writing only but also pushes me to alter my life's attitude towards the future.

I'm blown away by Ankit Kothari's Sir coaching! Not only does he expertly guide me in script writing techniques, but he also nurtures my internal growth, positivity, and focus. His sessions are incredibly detailed, and he truly listens and understands my challenges. Under his mentorship, I've created three successful short movies on YouTube. Ankit's holistic approach and boundless positivity make him an exceptional coach. I feel grateful and proud to have him as my script writing coach. Highly recommended!

I joined Storython in August 2024 and through Ankit Sir's weekly live sessions, the techniques learnt, and mindset-building habits, I have been able to draft several feature-film story ideas (one, three and ten pagers) across multiple genres in a span of 6-8 months or so. So, my feedback is straight out of the outputs I could achieve. But it's not just about the outputs. It has been a consistent experience of self-discovery - I didn't know journaling for example, would go such a long way to generate ideas (something Ankit Sir always emphasizes). I didn't know 'SAVERS' or Silence-Affirmation-Visualisation-Exercise-Reading-Scribbling was such a cool way of approaching our daily routine, to write productively. And I didn't know I would navigate through three different genres (biopic, romantic comedy and psychological thriller) to finally commit to a screenplay drafting process, which will generate a finished bound script! Clearly there were no processes in 2023 or earlier to make it happen, and the proof lies in the pudding. Please consider Storython's Advanced Scriptwriting Mastery (ASM) course if you are a serious aspiring screenwriter who wants to commit to producing bound feature film scripts. If you are committed and patient, and trust the process that the mentor emphasizes in literally every live session every week, you will see (surprising) changes!

I like the structure and learnings. It's valuable and contributes to my job and making me better overall.

This masterclass is a truly enriching experience. It offers well-researched insights backed by solid facts and figures. Amit Kothari’s teaching style is exceptionally friendly and easy to grasp, making complex concepts accessible to everyone. I highly recommend this workshop to every aspiring writer. Being part of this story and screenwriting journey was not just informative, but also deeply fulfilling. Every element was explained thoroughly and with great conviction

Do you also dream of becoming a writer, but don't know where to began?
Do you also know nothing about how a writer works and earns?
Are you also fascinated to write fiction/ movie scripts?
If your answer is yes, then, you are on the right door of opportunity.
Yes, you heard it right.
Just knock the door, before you loose the opportunity.
Here you will find the truest and best implementor Mr. Ankit Kothari.
His course starts from 0 ends at infinity.

I had been keen to start my career in writing but in vain, knew nothing about it, had no one to guide me, but wanted to do it.
One such morning I found a course on novel writing, desperate to join, I enrolled and paid. It was nice but advanced course where only a senior school teacher just tells you just the theory, which didn't helped me much.

A few days in the course Ankit sir popped on my Instagram and I was totally in line with his teachings and frequency. But I found out that he wasn't taking any new batches then. A few days later another miracle happened and he held a masterclass, being from sales I already knew it was an opportunity to join his community and course, which would definitely be pitched towards the end and I was eager to join the same. I began the session with curiosity and found his teaching style totally aligned to me. He is an online mentor but his sessions are active and live (literally has life). He is a strict teacher with a smile on the face (deadly combo like in primary school, isn't it).

He starts from pre school where you learn going to school, moves to nursery where you learn alphabets, gradually to primary where you learn basic fundamentals, then secondary where you learn to apply fundamentals, after that you move to high school where you have your friends/ classmates you do activities in group and master the application of fundamentals taught, later you may enroll for college/ masters where you learn the skills and make it a craft for the life ahead.

In this journey under Ankit sir's mentorship we are provided resources to become a true character of writer.
For an artist to play a character one provides him dialogues / script ( that's just theory part of it, like fundamentals and knowledge about tools and techniques), but then he is provided with costume, make up, hair and all other touch ups. So, in this course we are being provided a full package of all of the above, hence, become a full proof one. And if still we couldn't, then atleast we would mimic to be one, to be able to fake it till we make it.
I am truly grateful to be able to come across Ankit sir and in a short span being his student and being a part of his journey. It's all about the vibes, we are all vibrating collectively on the same frequency, hence, we are here. Happy learning.

Most important is that he believes in learning with fun like we did in school, so it's not burdensome.

I am writing this review already 36 days in the journey, and do consider my teaching, sales and street smart skills, honestly just join Ankit sir whenever and however you get a chance. He will provide you more worth than your paid pennies.

Forever grateful

Perfect for new writer to start with. If you just have an ideas and don't know how to shape it into a script or a story then Ankit sir helps you to start your journey. You can learn the technique and method to write and also soft skills a writer should have.

This key and many more priceless keys.

Writing for films or OTT platforms or more..
Script writing is the precious backbone to any
small or big video/film production.

It was a good days and great experience I get to know how inside tips and tricks thank you Ankit sir for such a good information.

Its great experience. These are very good stories, how to take them forward in an interesting way

The course was a good introduction to script writing especially for someone like me from a non writing, non arts background but I skipped the second day with the understanding that the recording will be available on the app but only the first day was available which I think was not fair. It should be available at least for the day so that one can watch if one could attend due to some reason. My money essentially got wasted since I couldn't even see the videos. I'm only giving 3 stars because the course wasn't bad as such but this has to change.

The program was really good and helpful too.
I am grateful tobe the part of it.
