About me
I am a British Asian Actor, Voiceover Artist and Podcaster with both stage and on-screen experience. Having caught the acting bug after hosting and performing in numerous university stage shows in 2009, I have decided to purse my passions with greater intent.When presenting, I aim to approach my shows with a light-hearted and comedic approach, and many of these have gained much notoriety across the Tamil diaspora community in the UK. I am fluent in both English and Tamil, and am currently learning to speak Turkish.
I see myself as a focused individual who goes the extra mile to immerse myself into any character, as well as learning from the skills of those around me.
Acting experience:
I have collaborated with skillful director Paul Blinkhorn in an audio monologue Guy/Man/Guy (2020) written by talented emerging writer Sophia Chetin Leuner, as part of the Lockdown Liftup series, set up by Kickitdown Productions. I am very pleased to say that the monologue has been received very well with two 4-star reviews from notable online publications.
My acting credits include the short film Washy (2021) by the refreshing and talented director James Rush, and Tamil-language film Jagame Thandhiram (2020) directed by the visionary director Karthik Subbaraj.
Additional skills:
Straight after university, I travelled to China where I taught English as a second language at the University of Hengshui. I also have nine years of Speech and Drama teaching experience, focusing on LAMDA syllabuses, which is something I still fit in alongside pursuing my passions.
I have experience in working in Art galleries across London, aswell as helping to run successful online fashion blogs, that have taken me to London and Copenhagen Fashion Week (2017) respectively.
I also play the Alto Saxophone, along with a number of South Indian Percussion instruments.
Additional information:
I have lived-in experience of organ failure, and have used various platforms to promote Organ Donation awareness across the country. You can tune in to my podcast ''The Professional Patients'' online, where I speak frankly with my close friend and transplant-recipient Oliver Crawley about growing up with chronic renal failure.
