Bio
I am an accomplished sound designer, composer, and music supervisor with over eight years of active experience in the film industry.
An alumnus of the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII), Pune, I hold a PG Diploma in Sound Recording & Sound Design. My journey in sound and music spans across multiple languages, including Malayalam, Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, and Sri Lankan Tamil, with significant contributions to feature films, documentaries, short films, web series, jingles and animation projects.
My work has been honoured with several awards, including the Kerala State Television Award for Chaver (Music Direction), the UGC Award for Kumudini (Sound Design), and the SFAAF Chile Award for Best Sound Design for Idam. My expertise extends to music and sound research for critically acclaimed feature films such as Thuramukham (2023), Kala (2021), Kammattipadam (2016), Njan Steve Lopez (2014), and Annayum Rasoolum (2013). I also had the distinct privilege of working as the sound designer for the “Culture of the Sea” exhibition on Dubai’s maritime history organized by Dubai Culture at the Shindagha Museum, Dubai. I have also conducted sound design workshops at K. R. Narayanan National Institute of Visual Science and Arts, Neo Film School, and Noise Head Quarters in Kerala.
With a profound passion for sound and music, I am committed to delivering innovative and immersive auditory experiences across all forms of media.
