About me

I decided to become a full-time musician. Many people say that I belong on stage and should do what my father did and passed on to me. My love is music (Mridangam). From 2026 onwards, I will be there for you all, not just in Europe, but all over the world. I have achieved so much in my life and I think that was just the beginning. I will continue my father’s legacy, continue to nurture it and make him proud. So far, I have worked as a Mridanga artist for over 15 teachers in several countries: Germany, Holland, France, Norway, Denmark, Italy, Switzerland, Sri Lanka, India and South America. That is just the beginning. My father’s wish is and always has been, no matter what, to never give up music, which I think will never happen. So to all of you, I am ready to experience more adventures, feel free to contact me.
