Early life and background

Akash Chander Dodeja was born on 27 March 1993 in Ulhasnagar, Maharashtra. Raised in a Sindhi family, he spent his childhood in his hometown and developed an early fondness for films and storytelling. He completed his schooling at Sri Satya Sai Niketan High School and went on to study at Smt. Chandibai Himathmal Mansukhani College before enrolling at Thadomal Shahani Engineering College in Mumbai, where he earned a Bachelor of Engineering in chemical engineering with first-grade marks.

Family life has been a visible part of his public profile. His father, Chander Dodeja, owns chemical factories, and his mother is Neeta Dodeja. He has two sisters, Renu and Barkha Dodeja, and a cousin brother named Nitesh Dodeja.

Career

While still a student, Akash befriended fellow creator Ashish Chanchlani. Their early camaraderie began during extra classes and later translated into weekend collaborations making short comedy clips. After graduating he worked in engineering roles — including as a process engineer at Aker Solutions in Mumbai beginning in July 2015 and later at TechnoQuest, Inc. in 2017 — before turning his attention to digital content and the family business.

Alongside these roles, Akash joined his father’s chemical enterprise and is listed as a director of Ralline Exim Pvt. Ltd. since 2019. His experience in the corporate world and in the family business ran in parallel with an expanding presence as an on-screen collaborator in comedic sketches and vines.

He became widely known for appearing in Ashish Chanchlani’s comedy videos, featuring in popular sketches such as The reality of every new year plan (2016), When mom is scolding your brother & you are enjoying it (2017), That friend Who always says no to all our plans (2017), and The Palti-Khor FRIEND (2017). He also worked with other online creators and actors across these projects.

In 2018 Akash launched his own self-titled YouTube channel and began posting vlogs, his first being a Goa trip with friends. His channel grew, and by 2019 he had received a YouTube Silver Play Button. Notable appearances in high-visibility parody videos include playing a character inspired by Claudia Ciesla in the 2020 Ashish Chanchlani parody “Sasta Biig Bosss” and portraying Chaman Gutka in the 2022 parody “Sasta Shark Tank.”

Public profile

By 2024 he had amassed over 1.32 million YouTube subscribers and took part as a speaker at the India Influencers Summit (2024). Samaira Kukreja is credited as his talent manager.

Personal life

Akash married Simran Dhanwani, a model, actress, dancer and YouTuber. The couple’s engagement was publicly shared on social media in January 2024, and their marriage date is listed as 29 February 2024. Friends from the creator community — including Ashish Chanchlani — have described a long-standing connection between Akash and Simran that traces back to collaborative work on earlier videos.

Interests and style

Outside of content creation and business, Akash lists hobbies such as reading and photography. He has expressed appreciation for filmmakers and creators he admires, and his personal style extends to a modest car and bike collection that includes a Honda Brio and a Yamaha Fazer.
