The Guy You Are Lookin' For.

WHY AM I APPLYING??

( Someone told me that your resume MUST start with this question )

[ Obvious answer of which is "TO GET THIS JOB" ]

{ But still.. }

I have never written any resume in my whole life, as I found it to be the least creative thing to write.. So instead of calling it a RESUME, I will call it a STORY..

Name of which is

I WONDER WHY I BECAME A WANDERER IN THE WONDERLAND OF WORDS..

The STORY began in the Golden Era of 80's, when Creativity was at it's best! While Pre-School taught me alphabates and words, High-School taught me to make sentences out of it;

The School beyond the walls, that is TELEVISION and RADIO, taught me to use the words in a creatively milnimalistic way to grab attention of the listener and make them believe in you. This encouraged me to write my own speeches and stand-up acts and made me the popular BOL-BACCHHAN of my school..

This passion of words drew me to RUIA COLLEGE,MUMBAI; which is a GURUKUL of creative people, where I was an active part of the theatre group.

There I wrote a few skits, street plays, stand-up acts and grabbed appreciation as well as a

Gold Medal for The Best Stand-Up Comedian in the Mumbai University's Youth Festival..

Then I got an opporunity to work in a post production studio, named

STUDIO VSX, where I successfully ventured as a Sound Engineer and

an IN-HOUSE CREATIVE HEAD. While working there I got associated with

developing and recording content for A.I.R., ZEE MARATHI, CARTOON NETWORK, NICKELODEON and many other clients related to advertising.

Being the "A" of popular marathi band "SAY" I penned and vocalized a few songs for our album, BREAKUP KE BAAD

and a musical animated series BACKSTREET BHAUZ on 9X JHAKAAS.

I recently penned lyrics for an upcoming show on ETV MARATHI,

named ZUNJ MARATHMOLI..

To focus on my real passion that is WORDS I started off

working as a Freelance Writer 3 years back.

I wrote and directed 2 short-films for 48 HOURS FILM PROJECT,MUMBAI;

named ISS MOD SE JAATE HAIN..(2011)

and NO ONE KILLED COFFEE..(2012)

and achieved words of appreciation from judges,

Mr.Nagesh Kukunoor, Mrs.Dolly Thakur

and bagged awards such as

SPECIAL MENTION-JURY AWARD

and AUDIENCE FAVOURITE FILM AWARD.

Also wrote Promotional Title Song for Marathi Movie,TOURING TALKIES. Recently wrote and sung a marathi song, HEY YOU!, released on this Valentine's.

For which I did a promotional ad campaign too which

got viral on the social networks, along with the song.

Along with the short films I have been writing Cartoon Series and Jingles for Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon and Sonic Channel

(list of which is given on the left).

A story MUST have a Happy Ending. But I am incapable of ending this STORY, as end of it lies in your favourable response. And it will be a new beginning in the story of A WANDERER IN THE WONDERLAND OF WORDS..

With warm regards
Abhishek P. Khankar
