Mak Singh is a British author, screenwriter, director, producer, speaker, and transformation coach based in the United Kingdom.

His career spans film, business, politics, leadership development, and public speaking, giving him a rare perspective that combines creativity, strategy, human psychology, and real-world execution.

Mak first gained national recognition after winning the British Powerlifting Championships in 1995. In 1997, he entered the entertainment industry after being discovered by filmmaker Gurinder Chadha and Bollywood actor/director Sunny Deol, leading to his acting debut in the Hindi-language feature film Dillagi, in which he portrayed the antagonist “Mac.”

He later appeared alongside Charles Dance in the Rugby World Cup 2015 commercial Team Talk.

He has met legendary Bollywood actor Dharmendra, one of his early inspirations growing up through his father’s video store business, as well as Hollywood icon Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Mak also appeared in regional press coverage connected to Arnold Schwarzenegger during public and fitness-related events in the UK.

Alongside his professional and creative work, Mak has supported charitable and community-focused initiatives, including events involving former world heavyweight boxing champion Frank Bruno.

His personal journey and achievements were also featured within exhibitions connected to the Wolverhampton Art Gallery, recognising his unique background across sport, film, leadership, politics, and community impact.

Before pursuing mainstream acting further, Mak stepped away from the entertainment industry to focus on his Christian faith and purpose-driven storytelling. During this period, he wrote, produced, and directed more than 30 short films centred on faith, transformation, identity, and hope.

Alongside his creative work, Mak built a successful career in business, leadership, and local government, serving as a Wolverhampton City Councillor between 2016 and 2023.

Today, Mak is focused on building internationally scalable film, television, and transformational education projects through iMak Films and Unlock Your Greatness.
