About me

Welcome to my humble abode (err, profile). Look around, but no flash photography (or screenshots) please.

I was a Chartered Accountant in a previous life, and writing is the only way I can process that trauma. As I search for my own masterpiece, I gush about masterpieces from everyone else to anyone who listens. I'm a straight up pop-culture junkie. I'm also addicted to planning itineraries and making Top 10 lists.

I have been writing stories as a hobby throughout my life. At FTII, many of those stories turned into scripts, either on their own or as part of a larger narrative. I have completed drafts of one feature spec screenplay, two feature film treatments and two television bibles (with pilots). What was once a pipe dream seems surreally close now. All I need is a foot in the door.

I hope to work on stories and projects of all lengths and breadths. Since my graduation, I have been working as a screenwriter on my own projects and those of others.

The Cinemaholic

Role	Associate Editor
Start Date	01-09-2017	End Date	31-12-2018
I write in tandem with a tight-knit team of ardent cinephiles at TheCinemaholic. We treat cinema as much more than an aspect of pop culture. We treat cinema as a way of life. Lists, reviews, explanations, trivia, filmmaking tips - you name it, we publish it. We also pride ourselves as scarily accurate Oscar predictors. We reached a million facebook followers in May 2017 and thereon, our growth has been unprecedented. In a short span of 5 months we managed to garner twice the amount of followers we had since our inception, and reached the 3 million mark in September. In addition to my regular writing responsibilities (for details, see description under "Staff Writer") I have also been given the reins of the social media handles of The Cinemaholic.
