Bio
Hminga Chhunthang was born in Aizawl, Mizoram on 5 June 1980, the son of British property developer Eliana Murphy and Mizo postal worker Charles Chhunthang.

Chhunthang's childhood was scheduled around his father's late shifts at the post office. His father grew to despise his job, which greatly influenced Chhunthang, who remembers his father finding it difficult on some days to get up and go to work. Chhunthang vowed never to work at something that he did not enjoy. Nevertheless, he enjoyed hanging out with his friends, watching Hollywood action movies, martial arts films and animated films, as well as playing video games. As he had never been in a theatre, he relied mostly on his brothers and friends' descriptions of films that were just released theatrically.

On 1 June 2002, after taking a computer course on video editing and watching video tutorials on filmmaking, Chhunthang founded his production company called Universal Flow Pictures, which he uses it to make and produce his films. His first film produced under his company was Hminga, the Dragon.
