At the age of nine, He joined S.P. Balasubramaniam, Ilaiyaraaja's brother, and G. Anand as a rhythm pads player, and discontinued studies when he lost his father at the age of 13. He was compelled to make his hobby into a profession to meet the crisis in his family.[7] He then joined Raj-Koti team, and worked for three years on sixty films and then joined M. M. Keeravani and worked with him for three years completing thirty films. He has also gained experience from composers like Vandemataram Srinivas, Chakri, R. P. Patnaik and Devi Sri Prasad.

On the whole he put in fourteen years of rhythm and keyboard programming with the veterans before branching out on his own. In his early years under Manisharma composed the song Yeh Mera Jahaan for the movie Kushi which earned immense popularity among the youth.[8][9][10]
