First generation Serial/ parallel entrepreneur, angel investor.

Proud co-founder of Aspire systems, a company that has been named in top 50 of best companies to work for in India for the past 12 years by Economic Times.
I was born and raised in Chennai but unfortunately, not very fluent in Tamil. The god-gifted scriptwriters at Dummies still managed to give me a role in their plays! My love for Dummies drama and the team grows more and more with every play that I watch. The happiest place for me is to be with the young and energetic team (cast and crew) at Dummies.
I have been fortunate to have had my twin dreams fulfilled, that of starting my professional life and sharing my passion for theatre with Sreevathson. Apart from acting in and directing several plays, I have also composed the music for the productions collaborating with others such as Deeptha, Raj & Amuthan.
It was thanks to theatre that I was introduced to the late Shri K Balachander, who laid the path for my small screen journey with the serial Sahana. Later, I also acted in the movie ‘JJ’, directed by Saran. I feel greatly blessed to have worked closely with Shri K Balachander and composed the music for his theatre comeback, Pournami. Adding to the delight was the fact that the script was by Sreevathson..

Hi ! I'm a student in the school of Life. Entrepreneur, mentor and cultural enthusiast. I'm a cultural and literature enthusiast passionate about taking our literature and tradition to the world through digitization. Dummies Drama is a troupe that doesn't act, but rather lives theatre! My journey, which began with a small part in ‘Memory Minus’, continues with several ‘Memory pluses’.
I was part of the founding group of Dummies Drama, which gave me a great platform for my passion for world theatre and cinema. More than the onstage roles, working on the production aspects relating to the design of sets and lighting have been my greater interests. Backstage management is yet another area that greatly interests me.
Dummies, which started off as an amateur troupe, is hardly that now. My Career as a consultant for marketing and design has helped me to look at things differently when they are adapted for stage. Thanks to the wonderful team, the production values of our plays have been well appreciated.
Theatre has been my passion since childhood and have won prizes in several drama competitions. In 1996 , "Karuthavrutham" written by me, was staged at Bangalore and won the first prize at the national level.
