About me
I am born and raised in Toronto, Canada and I have a huge passion for music, sports and acting. I've been a professional percussionist since the age of 18 playing South Asian drums called, Tabla, Dholak and various other small percussions. My musical style gained worldwide attention in 2016 after I fused my percussions with top 40 music. Pop stars like Sia, have personally recognized my fusion cover of her smash hit, “Cheap Thrills.” CBC, Hindustan Times, Virgin Radio, NDTV, Buzzfeed, and other various news outlets across the world have all recognized my work. I was featured in magazines like the Cosmopolitan, Femina, and Harper’s Bazaar and won multiple musical awards locally and internationally. Although I never pursued dramatic arts after high school, I got to be part of some stage skits/plays where a mixture of English and Punjabi was used and often included lots of improvisation. I also had the chance to go to a few auditions whenever I had the chance. With my music going viral in 2016, I rode the wave and travelled the world playing with some of the biggest names in the South Asian industry. Despite all that, I've always dreamt of being an actor one day and as a child would always imagine myself being on a big screen. I am a hard working person who wears his heart on his sleeve. I like to call myself a perfectionist. I believe in going all in or go home. I am very passionate about the things that I love and like to give it my all. Through my musical journey I recently got opportunities to work in music videos as a male lead and short films and have received some great feedback and motivation from my directors. I am always looking for feedback and looking to learn something new so that I can become a better actor and person. My aim is to bring the character to life no matter what role I get, and to be able to connect with the audience and leave an impact.License & Passport
