Anand studied Interior Design in Chennai and made a mark in event management for a while before getting into the film industry. From then on there has been no looking back for this perfectionist, having worked in over 50 movies, mostly with top line directors, production houses and superstars. His first movie was a peek into the things to follow when he recreated the Taj Mahal on the seashore for Pawan Kalyan's Tholi Prema.

This drive for perfection is what has translated into larger than real life sets for movies such as Yamadonga, Sainikudu, Puli, Brindavanam, Naani, Gudumba Shanker, Baalu,etc. That is also one of the reasons that he likes to have his sets constructed under his own supervision complete to the last detail including wall textures, flooring and the finishing.

The same passion has translated into magnificent wedding sets designed for leading business houses and superstars of telegu cinema. Its a testament to his dedication and mastery of craft that these people call on his skills for their other commitments.

All the sets he designs are constructed in accordance with vaastu as he feels more comfortable if they are done that way. He also suggests the lighting scheme for his sets and discusses with the cinematographer to enhance the quality of the output. It should also be mentioned that he has worked with the best skilled cinematographers and a bunch of creative directors throughout his career. He has also forayed into Ad films with Pepsi, Amruthanjan, Fair and Lovely etc.

A must mention milestone in his career would be his State Award By Tamilnadu for his incredible work in the movie ‘New’ that won him great appreciation.
