Contextualise yourself in a line.

I am the Sod who’s always trying to fit in.

Vinay Pathak

Why do you do what you do?

Because despite all, it makes ME really happy.

First memory of performing?

Fourth grade. At a school fancy dress function. I was supposed to walk one round as a king and that was to be it. I remember I improvised. I stopped by my most favorite teacher and raised my arm with a sword, and asked her to come with me to live in my palace and be my queen. People broke into a rapturous laughter but she smiled and patted my head. She saw the honesty in my eyes. I carried on walking. I felt that she saw the king’s diligence in me.

First job ever?

A private teacher/tutor. Teaching English to a batch of school kids for their board exam when I was still studying to finish my Bachelor’s in Eng Literature.

Stage first or screen first?

Of course stage! That’s where it all started.

The best thing about being an actor.
