This is episode 3. Where we talk to a fellow Mysorean – KJ Pavan about Art.

​Pavan loves to travel and in addition to photography, his love of music as the percussionist and singer with the folk fusion band Swarathma has taken him to global tourist destinations from Australia to Morocco.

He is also an accomplished actor. He has acted in the blockbuster kannada feature film ‘U Turn’ directed by the acclaimed film maker Pawan Kumar, which got nominated for Best Screenplay at the New York Indian Film Festival 2016.

A small word to all my listeners: The best way to listen to today’s episode is to have your browser pointed at www.kjpavan.com. A lot of what we discuss in this interview today will be much more relatable if you also take a look at Pavan’s website kjpavan.com as we speak.
