About Me
I was born in the wonderful coastal town of Udupi, Karnataka and was brought up in Mumbai.
I am fluent in English, Hindi, Kannada & my mother-tongue Tulu.
Playing music is my most fulfilling pastime. I have played the keyboard for over 15 years and love exploring other instruments.
I also enjoy playing sports and writing poetry.
