Connecting with the world through art and storytelling.
The Seed
Being an independent artist taught me everything I needed - editing, writing, producing, marketing, branding, PR, etc. The first time I touched a mic in a Bombay restaurant, I knew it was where I belonged.
The stories: going to Bombay to write scripts, freelancing skills to survive, discovering comedy, performing for the first time
The Sprout
I joined the entertainment industry when I discovered my love for creating art, and I stayed for the stories.
The stories: producing my first show, freelance copywriting and scriptwriting, performing with India's most well-known artists, starting my production company
The Plant
I've spent the past five years making people laugh and connecting them with a range of experiences through stories. I believe storytelling is the most powerful way to connect with people - and my own story was the best place to start.
The stories: performing in multiple cities, starting my own production company, producing content and live shows, getting featured by national and international media outlets
The Tree
In November 2022, I launched my first national tour, Untouchable. It is not only my first national tour, but the first national tour done by a Dalit Comedian.
The stories: Touring twice in 8 cities (Bangalore, Chennai, Delhi, Gurgaon, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Nagpur, and Pune), performed in two cities at three venues on Bhim Jayanti, for 300+ people, performing at the National Academy of Legal Studies and Research (NALSAR), giving the keynote speech at the 46th ECAASU Conference hosted by the University of Virginia
