WHO WE ARE?
Founded in 1998, SURANG, emerged as one of the earliest digital recording studios in the heart of Chennai.
Distinguished by its superior acoustic infrastructure and unwavering commitment to quality. At a time when digital audio solutions were still taking shape, SURANG stood out as a pioneer, setting new benchmarks in sound recording.
Over the years, the studio became a trusted creative partner for numerous acclaimed jingles, music albums, and voice-over projects. What began as a dedicated audio recording facility soon expanded into video editing, eventually evolving into a comprehensive production house. From music albums and corporate films to DVD productions and branded visual content, SURANG steadily broadened its scope and creative reach.
In 2018, as it celebrated two decades of creative excellence, SURANG entered a bold new chapter by inaugurating a state-of-the-art facility. The new space featured expanded studio areas with advanced acoustics and a dedicated video production wing, including a professional Green Matte Shooting Floor — enabling greater creative possibilities and enhanced technical capabilities.
Building on this momentum, SURANG also established itself as a media agency, offering clients strategic release and distribution of advertisements across Radio, Television, and Theatres. This integrated service model allows clients to seamlessly create, produce, and broadcast their content — all under one roof, ensuring both creative consistency and wider reach.
Today, SURANG is home to a skilled and passionate team of audio-visual professionals. Beyond studio productions, the team also curates and manages large-scale live events, delivering end-to-end solutions with precision, creativity, and impact.
With a clear vision and a spirit of continuous innovation, SURANG remains committed to delivering meaningful creative experiences. Its mission is not only to meet client expectations but to exceed them — inspiring, elevating, and transforming each project into something truly memorable.
At its core, SURANG stands for collaboration, creativity, and a relentless pursuit of excellence — growing stronger, year after year, as a unified team.
