Dubbing 

As I entered the dubbing studio, a wave of excitement washed over me To deliver a polished and expressive performance, I engaged in vocal warm-up exercises One of the unique challenges in dubbing is matching the dialogue with the lip movements of my character Throughout the dubbing process, I received feedback and guidance from the director and sound engineers

I received the Best Actor award at INSTINCTs (Reels of Fire) on the 13 of March 2015 The official cultural extravaganza hosted by SSN Institutions, Chennai. 

Learning

Learning to fly a kite started with the anticipation of holding the vibrant fabric and feeling the pull of the wind. With a kite in hand, a sense of wonder and curiosity emerges. The process begins with understanding the components of a kite - the frame, strings, and tail - and how they work together to take flight
