I was born and finished most of my education in Ongole, Andhra Pradesh. My parents Shri Raheed and Shrimati Mehetaj, have encouraged and nurtured my passion for performing arts. Bred in a rich mix of fabric of Islamic and Telugu culture, I have been attracted to the Indian Traditional dance, especially to the art of Kuchipudi Dance. I have been practicing this dance since a tender age of nine. I was trained under the revered Guru Sri K.V Subrahamanyam, disciple of the venerated Guru Sri (Dr.) Vempati China Satyam.

An MBA by qualification, I live in Hyderabad and had given more than 800 solo and group performances all over India and abroad.'
