What I'm looking for

I'm looking to shape compelling stories through film editing, post-production, direction, and teaching, bringing together creative intuition, professional workflows, and hands-on industry experience.

I’ve edited acclaimed feature films and web content including Nishiddho, Kerala State Award 2nd Best Film; 5 Seeds, Kerala State Critics Award Best Children’s Film; and the ManoramaMax Original series Soul Stories. My recent work also includes O Leela, Paaltu, and Paka.

I bring 14+ years across film, television promos, advertising, documentaries, copywriting, and post-production workflows. I’ve also designed film curricula and trained students at KR Narayanan Institute of Visual Science & Arts and St. Joseph College of Communication, connecting editing theory with real feature-film practice.
