Ebi Shankara is a bona fide entertainer! He tells me about his love for the beautiful game, how he stumbled upon acting and how after playing the role of Hamlet, was offered a position at Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts at the age of 15!
Ebi also divulges an intimate story of why he hated his name growing up! Of course, Ebi shares his experience being the youngest ever winner of Vasantham Star in 2007 and what it takes to be a winner in such a competition. Yes, he did sing a verse of Usher’s You Remind Me for me on the podcast! Real smooth!
I was truly captivated by the stories on his first love, theatre acting. Ebi describes it as “being alive” performing for a live audience. The entertainer also shares his trepidation and the battle to stay relevant in the current climate.
Ebi Shankara is a likeable, down to earth and humble star. You do not want to miss his story on Episode 22! Enjoy!
