A new MAAC centre for East Pune, built on 38 years of Aptech's education legacy.
Maya Academy of Advanced Cinematics (MAAC) is the Media and Entertainment education brand of Aptech Ltd., a global learning solutions provider founded in 1986. With centres across India and thousands of alumni in studios such as MPC, Prime Focus, Technicolor, DNEG and Ubisoft, MAAC is the name the industry trusts for Animation, VFX, Gaming and Digital Media talent.
MAAC Kharadi opened in 2026 to serve students and working professionals in Kharadi, Viman Nagar, Wagholi, Hadapsar, Magarpatta, Kalyani Nagar and the wider East Pune region - so you no longer have to travel across the city for a MAAC education.
We follow the MAAC curriculum to the letter: the same programs, course material, assessments and certification as every MAAC centre, delivered by MAAC-certified faculty in purpose-built labs.
The same industry-designed programs, course material and certification as every MAAC centre in India - backed by Aptech's 38+ years in education.
