Its awesome to deliver the 'theater of the mind', to the thousands of listeners listening to your radio. Day in and day out, we create magic On-Air, conveying the image in our minds, only with sound. Thats the power of Radio. SAE has developed this instinct inside me to try out different ways and means of constantly experimenting with sound. With Radio as the perfect Audio Medium, and the technical knowhow gained from SAE, I'm able to slowly climb up the professional ladder. Everyday is a new day for Audio

A strong fundamental knowledge is necessary for anyone who aims it to the top, be it any career. Audio engineering, being the technical-creative field it is, requires thorough understanding of the basics of this vast subject. SAE Mumbai for me was not just a college, it was a learning environment with all facilities and excellent faculty. It was very instrumental in developing my knowledge, confidence and the right attitude to work in the industry.

I passed out from SAE Mumbai with the Audio Engineering Diploma. It was my ambition to get into film sound, in particular the recording and mixing aspects of songs and background music. It has been tough initially but after having worked some three and a half years in the 'industry' now, I feel I have succeeded quite well in getting a foothold in my preferred area of the audio industry here in Mumbai. Starting with Hey Baby and Johnny Gaddar , since then I have worked on variety of projects, over 23 feature films with Shankar Ehsaan Loy - My name is Khan being the latest film to release. I have also just completed the entire recording and mixing of the background music and songs for Aamir Khan Productions next film 'Peepl Live' which will be the first Indian film to be screened at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2010.
