He was one of a handful of journalists who helped found Rediff (Nasdaq: REDF). He was based in New York City, as editor of India Abroad, the largest Indian-American newspaper, after that paper was bought by Rediff. He was Yahoo!

He translated the book, Randamoozham from Malayalam in the serialized form on his blog.[4] The original explores the Mahabharata, through the viewpoint of Bhima. This was converted into a book in the form of a single PDF document for free, called Bhimsen, in 2009.[5][6]
