Dinesh Vijan says that Maddock works on three fundamental principles: the story should not have a reference point, it must have commercial potential, and the actors should reinvent themselves. "The new purchasing power, the new India needs stories, which are within India. The next phase of what we want to try and do is, we want to up the ante, we still want to make stories that are powerful, but if you have to go in theaters, we need to make them larger", said the producer to Variety.

Apart from the aforementioned 15 films, Maddock Films also confirmed three visual spectacles. Part of that vision is Maddock's interpretation of "Arabian Nights", which is currently in development. First up will be "Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves", followed by "Aladdin" and "Sinbad". The plan is to cater to the Indian theatrical audience first and then go wide.
