Welcome to my page

I am currently a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Chennai Mathematical Institute (CMI), India. I received my PhD in Physics from the Department of Physics, Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, India, under the supervision of Prof. Sayan Kar.

My current research focuses on the dynamical evolution of black holes, particularly their formation through gravitational collapse and the structure of their interiors. I am interested in understanding the nonlinear dynamics of gravitational and electromagnetic fields in strong-gravity regimes, with particular emphasis on the stability of Cauchy horizons, mass inflation, and the development of spacetime singularities.

I am also interested in black hole perturbation theory and gravitational-wave modelling of extreme mass-ratio inspiral systems considering self-force effects in orbital evolution and waveform generation.

During my doctoral studies, I investigated black holes and wormholes beyond the standard Schwarzschild and Kerr solutions, with particular emphasis on regular black holes arising from nonlinear electrodynamics and effective matter models. This work involved studying their geometrical properties, stability, thermodynamics, and observational signatures, including black hole shadows and gravitational lensing, with comparisons to Event Horizon Telescope observations.

During my master’s studies, I worked on black hole shadows in static, spherically symmetric and stationary, axisymmetric spacetimes arising in alternative theories of gravity.

I value open, collaborative, and reproducible research practices. Outside of research, I enjoy reading fiction, gardening, and playing video games.
