My Story
I was born and raised in the heart of Bangalore. During my school days, I was always drawn to watching films, art, and sketching. Over time, my interest shifted toward photography. My journey began when my mother gifted me a camera, bought with her hard-earned savings. That camera changed everything for me.
While pursuing my undergraduate studies, I started working at a local studio. Unfortunately, I had to drop out in my second year to support my family. That’s when I began freelancing as a photographer and filmmaker. Later in my journey, I was fortunate to meet a mentor who guided me to grow and learn through more advanced platforms.
In 2015, I shot and directed a music video that resonated deeply with Bangalore’s IT crowd. It went viral on social media, opening new doors for me. I began receiving commercial work and gradually transitioned into films and web series—paths I continue to follow with passion.
Since 2012, I’ve been deeply fascinated by motion control cinematography. After years of research and experimentation, this passion led me start Mocobot Studio with a close group of friends in 2021. I’m incredibly proud to be the founder and partner of the company. Today, Mocobot Studio is in high demand in the Indian film industry and has contributed to many successful projects.
Alongside cinematography, I developed a strong interest in colour grading. I’m now a small investor in a company called LumaPost, which aligns with my creative vision and technical curiosity.
Fulfilling a long-held dream, I’ve now made the move to Bombay, where I continue to build and contribute to the world of film and visual storytelling.
Beyond my professional work, I have a deep love for celluloid film. In my free time, I enjoy capturing portraits with my Mamiya RB67 and Nikon FM, meeting new faces and telling stories through still images.
