I was born and brought up in Kochi, a beautiful coastal city in Kerala, India. I am currently studying Management in Virginia, USA. I love music & movies. My favorite instrument is the Violin. I learned to play a bit of carnatic music on the Violin when I was in high-school, but never continued it further. Currently, I am getting trained in Western Classical/Pop music on the Piano under a wonderful teacher (a retd prof). This further has convinced me that music is something divine and we should all simply respect it!!! Hoping to have a nice time at MS. <b>Favorite Composers</b> <b>Hollywood:</b> 1. John Williams 2.
