Chirag Ravishankar is a final year engineering student at the University of Toronto. There is a great divide in this world where people are either arts oriented, or science oriented; the left side of the brain, or the right side of the brain; Engineers, or Artists. Chirag is somewhere in the middle. He moved to Canada when he was 12 and he underwent quite a culture shock. The experience developed his personality and he soon began intently observing and studying human behaviour and the different cultures. His passion for film and music naturally converged with his intent observation of the human psyche. Thus began his expression of the world in film.
