I work with The Times of India, Mumbai. I am a correspondent/copy editor for the Mumbai Mirror Website. I also write for The Times of South Mumbai (formerly Downtown Plus). By degree, however, I am an IT Engineer from PVG College, Pune University. I am a lead guitarist and I play classic rock, blues, metal, jazz, indian classical/fusion and funk. Cinema and music are my two passions. Some of my favourite filmmakers are Spielberg, Scorsese, Richard Linklater, Stanley Kubrick, Quentin Tarantino, Oliver Stone, Alfonso Cuaron, Christopher Nolan, Sidney Lumet.... I don't think this list can end as such, coz it's pretty dynamic.
