Gibran Noorani (born 1986)[1] is an Indian screenwriter particularly known for his work in Indian Films, television, and social media. He is also a qualified Dentist, since 2009.
Early life and education
Gibran was born on 20 October 1986 in Mumbai, India to Shakeel and Mumtaz Noorani. His father, Shakeel Noorani, is a well-known film producer and director, who made the 2000 Govinda starrer sleeper hit, Joru ka Ghulam.
Raised with his father’s film influence, Gibran always wanted to make movies, but because of his introverted nature in childhood, he couldn’t express his dreams. This was primarily because of his childhood obesity, which made him a bookworm instead.
He excelled academically at CWC School in Mumbai and joined Al-Ameen Dental College, Karnataka, for his dental degree.[2]
It was in dental college that Gibran realized his true potential by joining the cultural theatre group, where he wrote, directed, and acted in college plays. Initially suffering from stage fright, Gibran slowly developed into a mainstream anchor, which later boosted his confidence. His cultural activities did not hinder his academics, and he was awarded his doctorate in 2009.
In the same year, Gibran expressed his dream of filmmaking to his father, but since his family was experiencing hardships, he decided to practice dentistry instead.
The frustration of becoming withdrawn again and going through a personal rough patch propelled Gibran to daydream stories he wanted to tell. He started reading online scripts of legendary directors like Quentin Tarantino, Anurag Kashyap, and Rajkumar Hirani. With no formal writing training, Gibran wrote his first script, which made his father realize Gibran’s undiscovered talent. Gibran’s family then encouraged him to write and achieve his dream.[3]
Career
Gibran began his career by visiting production houses during his lunch breaks from his dental clinic. After writing and directing a few short films, Gibran finally landed at Anurag Kashyap’s office where he met Zeishan Quadri[4] during the Gangs of Wasseypur promotions.
Zeishan read Gibran’s scripts and recognized his writing skills. Zeishan and Gibran then collaborated on numerous scripts, resulting in the 2015 film Meeruthiya Gangsters.[5] The film underperformed at the box office but received critical acclaim for its realistic and rustic appeal.
Gibran then ventured into television and started working with major TV channels including Colors, &TV, Zee, and Star, and has written more than 50 episodes for shows including Code Red,[6] Darr Sabko Lagta hai, Savdhan India, Pyar Tune Kya Kiya, etc.
In 2016, Gibran joined the social media giants RVCJ as the Film Division Consultant, launching RVCJ’s foray into movie promotions. RVCJ became pioneers in Facebook Live Interviews, which were hosted by Gibran.
Gibran’s casual, sarcastic, and humorous anchoring style is popular on social media with celebrities and audiences alike.
Gibran sold the rights to his script ‘Dheet Patangey’ to Adhikari Brothers, slated for release in 2017.
He is also rumored to be writing the next installment of the Gangs of Wasseypur series with Zeishan Quadri.[7]
Personal life
Gibran maintains his own clinic in Mumbai where he practices dentistry while balancing writing and anchoring.
