Ashvin's eternal relationship with the performing arts and cinema has transcended several forms over the years. While his formative years were spent in Bangalore, he pursued his Bachelor's Degree in Performing Arts in Sydney, Australia and then, completed it at the Cyprus International University, in Radio & Television Production. Post which he was an RJ in Cyprus for 2 years and then taught drama & literature at the Millennium School, Dubai. Ashvin became the most recognised face of stand-up comedy in the South of India, long before the current breed of comics earned their rightful place under the sun. He has performed over 300 corporate events across India and opened for Colin Mochrie and Brad Sherwood of Whose Line Is It Anyway, in a countrywide tour in 2010. Ashvin's well-modulated, articulate voice has been a highly distinguished asset for audio-visual brand communication for over two decades now. For a time, he consulted for DDB Mudra, Bangalore, as Creative Lead for television and radio commercials. Apart from scripting, he also directed and acted in some of these TV commercials for national television. While he has dabbled in myriad forms of the entertainment craft, it is cinema that allowed him the best showcase for his many talents. Ashvin has gained tutelage from several international theatre groups such as The Footsbarn Theatre Company from France, the Commedia Dell'arte from Italy, and the Northern Broadsides from the United Kingdom. His most memorable theatrical performances include Dancing on Glass by Ram Ganesh Kamatham, Gentlemen by Anil Abraham, The Wedding Party by Kirtana Kumar, and Black Coffee Productions like The Dresser by Ronald Harwood, The Secret Death of Salvador Dali by Stephen Sewell, and Art by Yasmina Reza. Ashvin's filmography includes over 14 feature films in Malayalam, Hindi, and an Indo-American film Ka Body Scapes, which premiered at the London Flare Film Festival (2016). His foray into films began with Veeralipattu (2007), when he was part of the production team. His first film as an actor was the multilingual, Eros International and Hope Productions film, English Vinglish (2012), where he plays the affable Father Vincent opposite silver screen's diva, Sridevi. It was this film that catapulted him to national recognition as an actor and got him a role in the Malayalam film Vedivazhipadu (2013). From here on, he has been cast with some of the most prolific artists of Malayalam cinema, like Mohanlal, Fahad Fasil, Prithviraj, Dulqer Salman, Kunchacko Boban, and Chemban Vinod. More recently, the hugely successful Bheemante Vazhi (2021) has earned him rave reviews from both film critics and fans alike. His distinctively refreshing approach to acting and cinema lets him hold his own amongst stalwart artists. It is the same distinctive style that he carries forth in his directorial debut feature film 3Devi, produced under his home production banner Altered Ego Entertainment. This time around choosing to wear all his caps at once, being the writer, producer, director, and actor for the film. Ashvin's craft is not just a means of communication and entertainment, but he also uses it as a language to help people combat life challenges. He conducts workshops for children and adults to enhance their listening skills, and to boost their memory and creativity. His workshops deal with personality development, team building, effective communication, change management, conflict resolution and public speaking using theatre techniques, for the corporate sector. Altered Ego Entertainment too is an extension of this vision and is poised to create a new narrative for cinema in India.
