His background score for the short film Pawssible won him a Kerala State Television Award for Best Music Director.[2] He is currently based in Kochi, Kerala.

Early life

In an online interview, he mentioned A. R. Rahman as his primary inspiration to become a music producer. It was after listening to the soundtrack album of the Bollywood film Taal, at the age of 14, that he decided to create his own music.[3]
