BOMBAY · MMXXVI · CONCURRENT MOTIONS

Five lanes, running at once.

Operator. Filmmaker. Comedian when the room cooperates.
Eight years of trying things. Products at Polygon, $4M+ at MAF, a startup or two, a few films, comedy on the side. Sometimes too fast, sometimes too slow.
Always reading. Always shipping. Mostly a curious kid with too many tabs open.

The five games
I'm playing.

N° 01 / Sales
The Problem
Selling to people who get pitched ten times before lunch.
The Move
Trust before features, long cycles, useful before profitable.
The State
$4M revenue, $3M ARR in 2025.

N° 02 / Build
The Problem
A consumer category most builders are tired of.
The Move
Quiet build, letters to the people who ask. Fratty (an events app I built before, ran out of road on funding) taught me distribution is the first job. Polygon taught me what shipping looks like.
The State
Sealed for now.

N° 03 / Screen
The Problem
Prose forgives a wandering sentence. Screen does not.
The Move
India Film Project at 19. Directed ads for Being Human, BookMyShow, and a handful of others. Non-fiction features by 21. Now back to writing. Features and shows in development.

Boil oceans with AI, sprinkle the salt yourself.
