Here is a report of conversation our team had with him..

1.What motivated you to enter this field at such a young age?

When I was of 6 years old, my dad took me to a magic show for the first time in Davangere.

I still remember those days..That particular day was wonderful, I was completely stunned to see so many things appear & disappear from the stage from no where.

After that day, I became a die-hard fan of magic shows & I started attending all such shows near by my place, I also purchased lots and lots of magic books and spent years together in training myself.

5 years went off in practice and finally one good day came in my life..

In 8th Grade, I gave my 1st ever magic show in my high school and received fabulous response.

Finally, this is how I started my Magical journey as a Magician.

2.Tell us something about your career as a magician

My career as a magician is filled both good and bad experiences !

I got fame, recognition, responsibility from Magic.

I learnt toughest illusions by my own. Mastering the skill of hypnotism gave me another plus point..

The art of magic is wonderful, but finally..all it depends on how well you present it.
Presentation plays an equal & important role just as the practicing does

Following this formula of PRACTICE+PRESENTATION helped me a lot in achieving greater heights.

It alone made me to give more than 1000 stage shows all over Karnataka and few shows out in many other parts of India.

All most all my programs gave me good experiences and they taught me something new every time.

One of the best experience is that I was blessed by a chance to perform in front of the popular stars of Sandalwood, Devraj and Priyanka during the shooting of a reality show called "Super star of Karnataka".

Well..there are some bad experiences either but they are negligible.

3.We heard that you also have a great interest in music, stage plays etc. Tell us something about the same

The entry with music was unexpected.

I just had a hobby of singing but never exposed.

In 10th grade, one of my neighbor forcefully made me to join vocal music classes, I went to the classes for 9 months and couldn't continue it due to my dad's transfers.

We arrived at Thirthalli, I resumed my studies there only, during my PU Days, I learnt hindustani music, playing keyboard and harmonium.

All these gave me a strong base & helped me as back-ups for participating in Indian Idol-6. After coming back from Indian Idol-6 my interests diverted towards Guitar..

Stage plays are other parts,

Initially I played some small roles in dramas, small roles turned into lead roles & finally got chances to act in Kannada movies like Galipata, Drama.. ,Telefilm named Panchatantrada Kategalu and a TV serial named Madhuvana.

4.Tell us about your Indian Idol journey

When I saw the TV ad of Indian Idol 6 for the first time, I remembered my friend Ganesh who is a popular vocalist in my locality & He had participated in Indian idol 5. We both met & decided to participate in Indian Idol 6..

At Indian Idol Auditions

We applied, luckily we got the passes for our auditions in Mumbai. My parents encouraged & boosted me in every stages of mine..

We participated with good confidence. I passed out the first two rounds of selection and came out in the 3rd round.

Sony team treated us neither good nor bad.

My worst experience was that on the day of audition, we reached the venue at 5am, my number was 728..which means that I was the 728th person of the day to give the audition! :-(

It was horrible..We were made to stand in Sunlight all day long..No food, No water..

After waiting for 17 long hours..My turn came at 10:30pm finally ! 

5.What are your future plans?  

Future Plans? There are many of them actually!

First of all in need to achieve greater heights as a Magician! I want to give international level magic shows!.

I am even planning to have a big magic crew of my own..

And strong thoughts of starting a Music band is also running in my mind.

6.Finally, Your Message to our readers.
