My first brush with theater got me slapped. Before you think of something, it was by my on stage wife !
It was a great experience, and strenghthened my resolve to continue performing on bigger stages and audiences. My acting experience has been through theatre, beginning in college and now for theatre groups in Bangalore.
I recently had my picture portfolio done, and have been trying to break into new opportunities. 
 
I grew up in Bangalore, and was influenced by the multitude of Kannada/Telugu/Bollywood movies and cultures. Witnessing a great performance in any language excites me in a way I cannot explain, and I try and watch actors closely sometimes trying to mimic them behind closed doors, some of which were opened by unsuspecting friends and family much to their amusement.
 
I enjoy exploring and immersing myself in different cultures, and so traveling is something I would like to do more. I also like driving which ties in to my desire to travel.

I grew up playing a number of sports, and am frequently involved in local matches at the neighbourhood of any sport.
Watching movies and plays is another hobby I enjoy but one that I take more seriously because of my desire to perform and also because watching others add to my learning experience.
 
I'd like to increase my acting abilities to encompass all sorts of roles.
