[Music]
hey but they should be so oh I hate
headaches
so much on system the other side some
bit right the other side and you know we
eventually try to find five cells and in
the same day I tried not like a label to
myself I was in this face somewhere at
some point of my life because you know
it's very important it's very important
because the TEDx equally called me you
know I was in a coma because they give
you three choices you know the tops of
priorities
choice is a deal immunity and I had to
be doing whatever and something you know
pasta mix of distribution for my choices
so I think it was my profession of my
personality you have a say so yeah so
I'm saying it's really important to
enable ourselves as something female
belong who you are so that we can visit
on ourselves and you know whatever we
want to be your who you're meant to be
so that's that's really important in
life so try maybe you know she share the
same thoughts as other people and share
the same interests the community is what
which is really important for the
belongingness so when these people call
me for the shock angles I was literally
an Aloha how to elaborate this process
because it's been really complicated
many birds no I usually let my walks eat
my for myself so that's that's
easier less that's worse and more work
that's always hopefully so but that's
like I've let has led me to go find
myself as in the spirit and eventually
he goes think of something which was
very much what you call it because we
cool
so to be honest I was never bullied I
was never made fun of or even by a
family
so in fact we wanna see cause my mother
actually pushed me to pursue personality
so I was I was somewhere around five or
six years old and I come from school
with a drawing my friend had me so I see
exactly that because Y was executive but
I kind of liked it very much
I showed you further and she was like
she just has a simple question like why
don't you bro and believe me you know
she never even studied so so I was like
something
a comfortable zone for me so she was
always very much supportive that's like
my diet so I will see she just asked me
like why don't you know so I was like
okay I might not
so believe me when I say this these
fibers changed my life
so I can even yeah you know it's it's
something that I'm here to be sharing my
so so I was so high it was drawing of
trying to mediate that when my mother
asked me that I wanted the drawing
method nightly it was the first drawing
ever and my favorite always your hand so
so kawaii so because I was in action
and you know Irish you guys seen my
piece so anyway so I was certain I was
so much confusion that little search is
so fancy I just drew that drawing in my
sketchbook it was really good my friend
actually I was so it was something which
was this was all I wanted so the high
completion of that party good drawing
you know my mom was officiating though
it was it was really important for me so
I this I just continued searching you
know it was just it was like my PL sort
of a magnum so it was this particular
passion has consumed everything with me
you know it has given me so much
away from me you know it's like you know
this Wi-Fi right you know the Wi-Fi
which requires a little lace a little
plain which swallows everything in
its spots when you're right it's like we
generate spots and we use this oil that
equals Cicilline towards video so that
it could be in comics I used to be so
much into comics and with my own candy I
was a little kid just sitting away in
the language of my class
I had and I don't know many friends you
know I think most of this job you know
I'm sure me because obviously matter of
what he was equality and always will be
honest that's because he buying or a sec
you dying
not on the small box so I can't go paid
it was it was okay for me it was working
well no no no what actually with my
dress in my suit most of the times I
suppose it's obscure some of the
language track rules and movies and I
should read this at all well he's most
of the people of my age you think it's a
find boring mozzie is so different and
so it was because this is so I remember
in my life is just fine so nothing else
I was really bad at math and I knew that
because I was actually I find this a
puzzle so yes exactly it really just the
time passed by and you know after that
it was it was just most of my car so
easy you know figuring of the
[Music]
examinations and all the stuff
salsa and I was like market robbery
because we all right
[Music]
because he are awesome and why do you
want to do this long enough I keep so
users he hasn't he ever said that
because I thought you gotta know and and
those are irritated by someone you know
someone yeah deep in that way and I was
just going on you know I was just trying
all these bouncing selves and at
this point there are most of the
appreciation all these you know what
they think push it with fashion is
something which is even more important
because in during during this schooling
of mine most of my friends you know used
to ask my you know they used to find me
especially my teachers and I used to
find me too
you know always sketching and ruling and
there are the targeting electrical
signal so they used to find me I was
caught so many times and you know at
this point of my life is a vaccine to me
in the form of the present sometimes me
you know so because it just feels that
you know in the fashion further because
it just made me feel like this is what I
want to do so I never felt bad I sat
down started one game so I know this
match so so so that was reason my traits
of being scientific so my friends in the
class very key views because you know be
an ambience which you know it is
surrounded with hammocks
you know there is this guy who keeps
obviously seats drawing stuff there is
always a serious sense of people it's
one person's life and why great
so supportive friends used to pass along
the sketchbook
you know it was a forward really amusing
and the font region areas at the same
time good so they were officiating my
heart because
something which I gotta sneeze and our
listening audience it could be anyone
government service needs audience so
like happen in the early stages of my
life and it was even more thrilling you
know to be always hit that that
particular point in a school was
something which I miss a lot because I
needed the appreciation and a lot of the
studies so so yeah that actually is was
a major factor which fuel my closet
addition to possible so after that I was
actually I just joined the not poly
agent all this happened you know I heard
that there is this collagen metal versus
you know who's offering this - pose and
you know you just go there and draw
everyday you know so it sounded like my
choice between that there was this
little sting called Junior College so
we're actually taught my college I think
so because it was it was easy so I
really liked it but still you know I
always wanted to grow so so yeah for
those guys so anyway so after that I
just he just went away it just to be
more responsibly and also the final and
I started doing caricatures mean what
you know about the process of my final
College so I was I was actually drawn to
this particular art form and which is my
specialization right now you know so
that's because so most of the
portraiture are you seen on internet or
anywhere you know I love portraiture but
something I somehow feel that it is it
kinds of other Sinatra the liberty of
another's so you know I don't want to
draw the same piece again and again for
the same likeness you know no offense
for subject but I find it a bit boring
but when it comes to catchin the beauty
of this art form you know for which he
pulled me towards it the reason built by
this particular firm had too much of
gravity the stigmas of its Liberty if
the Rivergate gives to an artist so you
can push you you get even purses this
art form you know you can just move
freely you can you know sometimes it
gives a much more inside to subjects
your personality then of portraiture
does so you can just put put your own
twist about how you perceive the subject
and you can just make it a make personal
spin a touch to it so if you just spin
it off and I'm here the beauty is yet
the caricature resembles the subject the
portrait so that's that's even more
interesting so and that's challenging
enough every caricature
which is absolutely different so no
categories alike yeah it was suppose the
same so that's something which actually
you know was quite exciting payment to
imagine so I started making those I
slowly and eventually you know started
practicing vigorously literally every
day it's just like the same when you're
passionate about something do it every
day unless you do it every day you don't
you know you cannot improve your command
honor i don't you know i don't want to
master the skills because if you want to
master something you know you stop
learning you know there is there is
something like mastering something you
just develop a mind on it and then you
get better tomorrow and then you get a
penalty after more so it only happens
when you try to do something every day
that's what you call practice for me or
see parents of patients it could be
anything but it has to be done so yeah
that's that's I treat it a bit because I
love it
so anyway so that's something which you
know which actually pulled me into the
scan feature stuff
eventually I also
design and also master designing so I
went up it's fine on you know this lot
happened then I was I was buying all
this stuff I provide all all these
things and I wanted to draw everything
anything you know I I knew nothing but
drawing so this was the only choice at
hand so and I was already at college so
I never had this what do you call I
never have this feeling of working under
someone you know it was always kind of
very much related to me so I started
freelancing and it was it was it just
started with few cages I had to draw a
multitude of caricatures for an
advertising agency in Hyderabad so I was
paying so it felt good
I thought it was freelancing and I never
was working under someone it was even
more liberating so I started taking our
projects and yeah he just went down like
that but still just like any other
profession it has its own ups and downs
you know the struggles are real you know
you feel that sometimes sometimes it is
literally you are literally there is
lots of flooding of projects there you
cannot even
to sleep or eat properly and it's like
you kind of develop a tunnel vision
where you just look at your credit lines
and nothing else in your be so so that's
what happens but on the other side
there's also this drawer space where you
don't have any projects anymore you know
it makes you question your own skills
because you don't have projects anymore
and this the competition of there is
rampant you need to and everyone is just
trying to get fitted themselves in
effect what they're doing dislike me
you know they're just trying to get just
trying to you know do whatever they want
to so most of the times it you know it
was well seen me so I bought myself and
I just started to get there slowly and
eventually nice I found myself
illustrating for Netflix by Kosovo
friend you know the stuff which happened
in the meanwhile so in between oh this I
want to do something for the community
of artists especially in Hyderabad since
I've seen it was really really done so I
started to form a community with help of
different actors and we try to bring
them together it was not working so we
started to I started to have have right
here where you know we could actually
spread some good knowledge because I
started as an artist learning some
techniques it was very much stuff to
figure it all out myself so I wanted to
do workshops and giving back there are
community out there especially in this
part of the country which isn't diamine
so I really love to you know go go get
out there each and all the stuff you
know which makes me identify myself as
in the script at the same time you know
I would mutually or when you say I can
easily get inspired by other people who
are pushing their own theater interests
you know the SWAT which you know makes
me go so for those who are out there
if I themselves as missiles you know
just recognize that there's always a
space for you and you know you can
always you don't have to find it you
make one for yourself and you know you
just don't dress and unless you find it
and I ever just say stay productive and
just keep just keep doing whatever you
love you know it doesn't matter even if
it's engineering or medicine or anything
just do what he loves you know and go
until they go to that position where you
get paid for what were you doing so
that's more important see yes that's my
little journey so just the same spot and
