Sekhar, who lives in Panampilly Nagar, India, says he is highly inspired by movie director Christopher Nolan, whose work includes films like" Dunkirk," "Interstellar" and "The Dark Knight" trilogy. What struck Sekhar most about Nolan’s work is how he captured his shots. “Watching movies of Christopher Nolan made me think about how he captured those amazing looking unique shots,” Sekhar says, noting that’s what inspired him to get into video.
