Varun Sunil is a native of Cochin in Kerala. Right from a very young age he had a predilection to playing 



percussion instruments driving his folk’s crazy tapping out rhythm patterns on all kinds of surfaces 



including pots and pans and even his school desk. He picked up a pair of bongos when in junior school 



and then went on to learn the mridangam. After that it was experimenting on other percussion 



instruments bagging prizes at youth festivals while still in school. He started playing percussion for local 



bands in his town. After completing his formal education he did a course in Audio Engineering from 



Chetana school of Audio Recording arts in Trichur, Kerala.



 He is based in Mumbai now and has been widely performing with musicians like Ustad Fazal
