Shayar Bhansali is a film editor based in Los Angeles. His most recent work, Hollywood Stargirl, a feature film directed by Julia Hart and produced by Jordan Horowitz, is scheduled for release on Disney+ in 2022.

Originally from Kolkata, India, Shayar spent the early years of his filmmaking career working on documentary films before transitioning to narrative content in Bollywood. After relocating to Los Angeles, he has continued to focus on narrative projects as an editor. His first feature editing credit, Standing Up Falling Down, starring Billy Crystal and Ben Schwartz, premiered at the 2019 Tribeca Film Festival. He went on to edit Stargirl and I’m Your Woman, directed by Julia Hart, and Safe Space, an independent film directed by Stefan Kubicki scheduled for release in 2022.

Shayar is an alumni of the American Film Institute and Film Independent’s Project Involve. Between films, he enjoys exploring the diverse landscape of all the food LA has to offer, and definitely spends too much time dreaming about perfectly baked butter croissants.
