Brief information: Dona is a hard working and diligent artist. He made his debut in the film called "Sandya". Unlike others his tales is somewhat different. According to him acting was once an unseen dream and he never expected to become an actor. It was as if fortune guided his hand. He was approached by a gym owner, where he used to work out, for his production (Sandya).
Since then his whole course of life was changed and gradually began to fall in love with the Film World that he now has started taking acting lessons.
