Early life and background

Akhilesh Jaiswal was born in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh. He grew up in Bhopal, did his schooling from there and came to Mumbai in 2006 for graduation. He was pursuing Bachelor of Mass Media from Lala Lajpat Rai College of Commerce and Economics. Only a year later did he realize that he was ready to launch into his true calling filmmaking, and that graduation wasn't required for it. So, he dropped out after his first year of college and started making small-time Marathi ad films and worked backstage with some theater groups.
Career

Jaiswal says he always wanted to be a film maker. He got his big break when he got the opportunity to co-write Anurag Kashyap's 'Gangs of Wasseypur'. He made his directorial debut with Mastram, which released on 9th May 2014.
Akhilesh directed 'Ballabhpur Ki Roopkatha' a web-adaptation of Badal Sarkar's classic, by the same name, and is available on Hotstar.
