Built by an artist and engineer
Abhinayपथ was started by Tushar Upadhyay out of a simple problem — the lack of a connected ecosystem for theatre artists.
What began as a search for auditions and mentorship gradually evolved into a broader effort to connect artists, institutions, and audiences.
The journey is still unfolding.
