Kanti Shah is a Bollywood director, producer and writer of B grade and C grade Hindi movies specially Horror and Adult movies.

Gunda has achieved a cult-film status due to its hilariously bad plot, acting and general lack of any aesthetic value and is rated 8.3 on IMDB. He casts actress Sapna in most of his movies.[2] He lives in Dosti Acres, Wadala East, a ghetto suburb of Mumbai. Veteran B-grade movie producer Sudeep Mukherjee has served as his casting director in almost all of his films. He also made a cameo in his hit film 'Fauji Fauj Mein Padosi Mauj Mei'.
