Ashvin A. Matthew

Post which he was an RJ in Cyprus for 2 years and then taught drama & literature at the Millennium School, Dubai.
Ashvin became the most recognised face of stand-up comedy in the South of India, long before the current breed of comics earned their rightful place under the sun. He has performed over 300 corporate events across India and opened for Colin Mochrie and Brad Sherwood of Whose Line Is It Anyway, in a countrywide tour in 2010. Ashvin’s well-modulated, articulate voice has been a highly distinguished asset for brands in radio promotions for over two decades now.

Apart from scripting, he also directed and acted in some of these TV commercials for national television.
Ashvin’s filmography includes over 14 feature films in Malayalam, Hindi, and an Indo-American film Ka Body Scapes, which premiered at the London Flare Film Festival (2016). His foray into films began with Veeralipattu (2007), when he was part of the production team. His first film as an actor was the multilingual, Eros International and Hope Productions film, English Vinglish (2012), where he plays the affable Father Vincent opposite silver screen’s diva, Sridevi.

Vishnudas Nandan

Vishnu’s expedition into the world of cinema began with his work for the International Film Festival of Kerala (IFFK), held in Trivandrum. This gave him the opportunity to interact with filmmakers and be privy to their craft, which in turn sparked in him a keen interest for filmmaking. IFFK, also provided him the opportunity to be a part of Trivandrum’s Abhinaya Theatre Research Centre. Here he spent 4 years learning the finer nuances of acting and contributing to their theatre productions.
Vishnu worked on two more editions of IFFK in 2010 and 2011, then with the International Film Festival of India, at Goa, in 2013. In the same year, he made his debut as Assistant Director for the Malayalam film, Vedivazhipaadu. This is where his long-standing association with Ashvin A. Mathew (who was acting in the film) began.
