RAVI SHANKAR

The always injured parent to Rasam and Spot, the bratty cats. A Tamilian who grew up in Goa, of all places! A speaker of 7 different languages, excluding sarcasm (mother tongue). When calling the shots - humour, style, montages and fast cars get his adrenaline going (not black coffee). Referencing, referencing, referencing – that’s what he does on a down day (only for inspiration. ahem!). A perennial car researcher that often calls for test drives on his regular route to play badminton. When semi-conductors are a shortage, he switches to being a boardgame-hogger. 

The one-time shishya to gurus Prakash Varma & Sneha Iype of Nirvana Films, has also assisted Rob Cohen (of Fast & Furious fame), Abhinay Deo (RDP), Ayappa (Early Man Films), Rajesh Krishnan (Soda Films), Arun Gopalan (Story-Tellers), Ram Madhvani (Equinox), Anaam Mishra (Greengrass), Viveck Daaschaudhary (Karmman Line), Shirsha Guha Thakurta (Oink Films) and many other prominent names in the business. After a decade of assisting and perfecting his craft, he started making cat videos and graduated to directing films.  

A director who uncannily enough can also sing and compose music (only to save his life!). Channelling his inner legendary namesake, he has composed, sung and written lyrics for Cadbury, Nestle, Coca Cola, Fast Track and more.
