I was cast as "The Cat" in a play my dad wrote for the kids in our community. Needless to say, I killed.
I decided to become a writer when I realised that I can tell the stories I want to see on stage. A writer who has influenced me greatly is A.R. Rahman
I describe my work as a holistic view of who I am. You'll get some Indian elements, some Bollywood, some funk, some musical theatre. My work is a sponge that reshapes the things it has absorbed.
I think the most rewarding part is enjoying that music in a room full of people. Nothing beats the thrill of a live audience who are receptive to your message.
