This is the premier showcase of my work, designed to capture attention and highlight the unique blend of modern entertainment and family legacy that defines my performances. It’s a glimpse into the energy, variety, and scale of what I bring to the stage.
On Stage with Coldplay
It was a career-defining moment to be handpicked by Coldplay's management to perform with our puppets during their India tour. This collection showcases our journey, from backstage preparations with our puppet band 'The Weirdos' to the final performance on the world's biggest stage.
Awards & Recognition
I am humbled and grateful for the recognition my work has received from the industry. These awards, from platforms like WOW Awards Asia and Entertainers Connect, validate our efforts to innovate and use ventriloquism for entertainment and social awareness.
Spectacles on Stage & Screen
We specialize in creating large-scale puppetry productions for television and major events. This collection features highlights from "Ardhavatrao 100 Not Out," our special show for Zee Marathi, showcasing a variety of puppet styles from traditional to modern.
Puppetry for a Cause
We believe in using our art to make a positive impact. This cluster highlights our collaborations with organizations like the Paani Foundation, the Election Commission, and Mumbai Police to create engaging social awareness campaigns.
Stand-Up Comedy with a Twist
This is where ventriloquism meets stand-up comedy. My shows, often performed at venues like The Habitat in Mumbai, are filled with clean, observational humor and witty banter with my puppet partners, designed for an adult audience.
A Family Legacy on Stage
Puppetry is not just my profession; it's a family legacy spanning four generations and over a century. This cluster shares moments of me performing with my father Ramdas Padhye, my wife Rujuta, and my daughter Neeva, keeping the tradition alive.
Taking Indian Puppetry Global
I have been fortunate to represent India at numerous international puppetry festivals across the globe, from the USA to Russia and Japan. This collection is a scrapbook of our global journey, sharing our art and culture with the world.
Inspiring the Next Generation
I am deeply passionate about teaching the art of ventriloquism and puppetry to children. This cluster shows the fun and creativity from my workshops and performances at various children's festivals like Kukdukoo Fest and Gaatha.
