About Me

I’m a first-year M.Tech student in Computer Science at IIT Bombay, working under Prof. Ganesh Ramakrishnan. My research interests include large language models (LLMs) for Indic languages and OCR.

Outside of academics, I enjoy traveling, swimming, cultural exploration, and classical piano music. In my free time, I watch anime, as well as Korean and Chinese dramas, and play games such as Genshin Impact, Fortnite, League of Legends, and Terraria. I also play Go (Weiqi/Baduk) quite often—mainly on Fox and OGS—and I’m always up for a match!

I listen to The 1975 a lot, and I grew up watching Stephen Chow and Maggie Cheung, so my bar for movies is pretty high. I’ve loved Hong Kong and Taiwanese films since childhood, and later got into Malayalam, Korean, and Indonesian cinema. Recently, I’ve been really into Mainland Chinese films, and I’d love to explore Japanese and classic Iranian cinema as well.
