A lawyer turned entertainment journalist. I am dynamic, fearlessly confident and infectiously enthusiastic when it comes to chasing entertainment news. Suffice to say, 'Bollywood' is my opium.

I handle the 'movies' section of tellychakkar.com which is India's no 1 online portal when it comes to top quality and exclusive news, interviews and gossips about TV stars. I have been assigned the responsibility of developing film related content for Tellychakkar which still is essentially television centric. I am responsible for bringing in exclusive interviews, gossips, writing feature stories, covering press conferences, parties and other film related events. I make sure to keep the 'movies' section of Tellychakkar updated with at least one exclusive story a day.
