Magic in Your Hands: Close-Up Mentalism in Bengaluru
Experience mentalism and sleight of hand happening inches from your eyes, where your guests participate in the impossible.
Even though it's my show, you have to follow the instructions. This clip shows a fast-paced, high-energy card trick performed up close, where sleight of hand and misdirection create a baffling effect.
Going the extra mile after the stage performance for DB Schenker. This is where the magic gets personal, with card tricks that happen so close, you won't believe your eyes.
Another angle of the close-up card magic for DB Schenker. The card seems to vanish and reappear at will, a classic sleight of hand performance that always captivates a small crowd.
A miracle on their own hands. For this close-up performance at an ACG event, I made a volunteer experience the fragrance of a flower just by using the power of her imagination.
At the same ACG event, I performed a classic card trick called "Oil and Water" for a small group. The intimate setting allows for a different style of magic that is subtle and highly deceptive.
After the main performance, individuals often gather for an encore. Here, a signed card becomes the star of a close-up miracle, jumping to the top of the deck with just a snap of the fingers.
About Magic in Your Hands
This is not a stage show where you watch from a distance. I move between your guests during cocktail hours or seated dinners, performing sleight of hand and sensory experiments right in their palms. Because I do not require a stage, microphone, or special lighting, I become part of the crowd, making the experience feel raw and deeply personal.
When you book me for close-up performance, you are getting an interactive ice-breaker that bridges the gap between strangers.
Why this works for corporate events
Unlike a stage act that demands attention, my roaming mentalism fits the fluid rhythm of a corporate mixer or gala. Guests do not need to pause their conversations to be entertained. They can be holding a drink in one hand and witness a card vanish or their own watch behave strangely with the other.
The nature of the performance
I rely on 'shaitani' (mischief) and psychological techniques to create these moments. Whether it is an iPhone unlocking itself in a guest's hand, manipulating time on an analog watch, or divining a PIN code, the goal is to make people question their reality. I have performed these acts for everything from intimate leadership dinners to large-scale events for brands like DB Schenker and ACG, adapting my style to the crowd's energy.
Technical requirements
Because my work relies on proximity rather than equipment, there is zero setup time. I do not need a PA system or a stage. I perform on floor level, mingling with your teams or clients, ensuring the focus remains entirely on the connection between us, not on technical logistics. This makes it an ideal fit for venues in Bengaluru where space or sound amplification might be constrained.
