BIO
Hi, I'm Charu.
At a young age, Ray's Goopy Bagha series and Benigni's Life Is Beautiful opened my horizons to something very precious.
My passion for literature and cinema has led me down the road of storytelling. I know the impact of words and how to use them in the right way.
My expertise ranges from writing to producing but is not limited to that. For a person who views life as a constant learning process, my experience remains ever-evolving.
