My Story & Mission
When my aviation dream was grounded by the pandemic, I turned to magic. This is the journey of how I traded wings for wands to spread joy.
Covid-19 changed everything for me. I had always dreamed of a career in aviation, but when that door closed, God opened a new one. This is a bit of my story about how I turned to magic full-time, finding my true calling in connecting with people through virtual shows.
For me, magic is more than just tricks. It's about creating moments of pure happiness. This is the heart behind my 'Magic for Happiness' project, where I travel to different orphanages to share some wonder with incredible children. It's a journey to make the world a little brighter, one smile at a time.
Someone once asked me, 'What is Magic for Happiness?'. It started with a single child's request and grew into a mission. This is the story of how my non-profit, The Little Smiles Foundation, began, with the simple goal of bringing magic to less privileged children.
This is a photo that reminds me of my faith, which is the foundation of everything I do. I believe we are all more than conquerors, and this belief fuels my passion for magic and for serving others. It's a reminder that even when things are tough, God's grace is always there.
About My Story & Mission
A laborer's child told me, "Bhaiya, magic is just for the rich and not for the poor." Those words changed my life. They inspired 'Magic for Happiness', where I perform in orphanages to prove that everyone deserves a moment of wonder.
My journey with magic started in a cyber cafe when I was 15, watching videos and saving up for props. I had a clear path set for the aviation industry, but the pandemic brought everything to a sudden halt. That setback was tough, but it became the foundation for my true calling.
When a child from a low-income community told me that magic was only for the wealthy, it ignited a fire in me. I realized that my craft was not just about the tricks, but about inclusion. That moment led me to start the Little Smiles Foundation, my non-profit for the education and wellbeing of children. I have performed 500+ free charity shows.
Today, I balance my work as a magician for corporate events, mentalism shows, and private parties with my charity mission. Virtual shows are mainly for corporate audiences, with families and private groups a secondary fit. Whether I am using professional cameras for a virtual show or performing on the floor of a government school, the goal is always the same: to create a genuine connection. Idhu thumba chennagittu (This is very good). I take the same care with my corporate clients as I do with my foundation work, ensuring every participant leaves with a sense of wonder. Theek hai?
