About
Vikram Raja rarely keeps to one lane. Born in 1990, with family roots in Kerala and a base in Pondicherry, he showed a passion for the arts early. He schooled at Petit Seminaire Higher Secondary School and went on to earn a Bachelor's in Business Administration, the foundation for the entrepreneurial path that followed.
He started out as a freelance graphic designer, and went on to found TKV Creatographics, a media & design agency spanning graphic design, web development, digital marketing and brand strategy for clients across industries. It is where his eye for how a brand should look and feel goes to work.
“Working in the field of modelling is like a mobile app, we should always be updated according to the current trend and fashion.”Vikram Raja, Women Exclusive, 2017
Modelling began in 2011. In 2014 he had his portfolio shot by celebrity photographer Karthi Srinivasan, and trained under actor and director Suhasini Maniratnam in a three-day acting workshop, the point where the modelling work started turning into acting.
More than a decade in front of the camera taught him how an image really comes together. The face of over 100 campaigns since 2011, he now moves fluidly between modelling, acting, casting and fashion blogging. With a growing presence in Tamil cinema, he also mentors the talent coming up behind him, on either side of the lens.

Modelling
Since 2011, a familiar face for leading brands across fashion, jewellery, lifestyle and technology, with over 100 advertisements to his name and counting. The work runs from commercial campaigns and editorials to the runway, each with its own demands.
Beyond his own bookings, he runs modelling courses for aspiring professionals, passing on what a decade in the industry has taught him. He shares the journey on Instagram, where he posts project updates, honest industry insight and a candid look behind the scenes.
Campaign, runway show or editorial, the brief is always the same: show up prepared and make the image work.
