  1. Work Hard, Play Harder!

  2. As we enter real estate magnate Varun Manian’s sprawling and gracious home, one can’t help but notice his five luxe cars lined up and gleaming on one side of the driveway. • The young mogul has been in the news recently, grabbing headlines thanks to his foray into Kollywood. • The first film that Varun is funding is a Siddharth-Prithiviraj starrer produced by YNOT Studios and directed by Vasanthabalan. • Through his entertainment company, Radiance Media, Varun is finalising plans to select good scripts and create quality cinema under his own banner. • The company will be producing their first film with director Balaji Mohan.

  3. This third generation entrepreneur who heads Radiance Realty Developers India Ltd, a real estate venture that is his brainchild, is passionate about his business. • His gracious home on a leafy avenue in a posh locality in Chennai reflects the elegance and charm of the man. • Dressed casually in jeans and a tee that accentuate his boyish, clean-cut, handsome looks, • Varun greets us warmly as we enter. While ace lensmanKunalDaswani gets ready for the exclusive cover photo shoot, we sit in the spacious living room, attractively furnished, with French windows looking out onto a pretty lawn fringed with plants.

  4. Before joining the family business, Varun studied in New York, an experience that he enjoyed and which also taught him a lot. • Talking about his studies abroad, he says, “It was the trend at that time for everybody to go abroad and study. We did our SATs. • I was at home one day after my SATs, putting in applications for various universities, and those days you got a cover. • If it was a thick cover, you knew you had got into college and if it was a thin cover, you knew it was a rejection letter. • So I got a few thick covers and I got a call from New York University saying this is what we want you to do and even offering a study abroad programme comprising six months in Italy.

  5. Varun Manian Radiance Realty is his brainchild. He proudly says, “The real estate business is completely my baby. • I am passionate about it and believe being a local player is a massive advantage. • Look at a huge company like DLF – they still make most of their profits out of Gurgaon but when they come to Chennai, the going gets very tough for them, because they don’t have the local knowledge that is so vital in this business. • Also the fact that we are an old, well-respected family has proved to be a huge advantage for us to be in this space. • And you know the other big advantage we have in real estate – that made us dive into it – is that we’ve been a construction company our whole life; building is in our DNA – it is a great skill that we have.”
