Driven by a deep-rooted curiosity, he pursued organic chemistry during his college years, studying the phytoconstituents of herbs such as Ashwagandha. This foundation laid the groundwork for his later integration of Ayurvedic principles with modern scientific research. Later, he explored the intersection of Ayurveda and modern science, leading to pioneering research in diabetic medicines, earning him a PhD from Anna University and shaping his vision for Vithania.
