Srinivas Erukula - Centre Head

Srinivas Erukula

Centre Head

Hello,
I have been a pivotal figure in the animation and multimedia education sector for over nine years, serving as the Centre Head at Arena Animation. With a wealth of experience and expertise, I had led their center with distinction, driving growth and excellence in education.

Alongside my role as Centre Head, I had been deeply involved in career counseling, offering invaluable guidance to aspiring professionals seeking to make their mark in the animation industry. Their passion for mentoring and nurturing talent has earned them widespread acclaim and admiration within the industry.

Driven by a desire to innovate and elevate the standard of animation education, We are now embarking on a new journey. We are in a process of establishing our own animation institute in Hyderabad, where we aim to create a hub of creativity and learning. Through our institute, our vision is to empower the next generation of animators with the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in this dynamic field.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“I have no hesitation in saying that my association with eChai has been a gateway into the startup ecosystem. Through this platform, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with many young and dynamic entrepreneurs. These interactions have been immensely enriching - I’ve learned a great deal and have always tried to offer guidance whenever approached. It’s a truly symbiotic relationship that I deeply value, and it wouldn’t have been possible without eChai.”

“eChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasn’t looking for visibility but needed direction. Over the years, it became more than just a network. It became my tribe; a place where conversations sparked collaborations, and strangers became trusted sounding boards. What I value most is how effortlessly eChai brings people together - no airs, no filters, just genuine people with shared dreams. I owe a lot to this community and to Jatin, whose consistency and belief in people have shaped journeys like mine. Forever grateful to be part of something so real.”

"From late-night brainstorming over chai to early morning founder calls, eChai has been more than just a network for me; it’s been home base for ideas, impact, and inspiration. What started as a simple meetup years ago turned into a powerful movement, connecting founders, creators, and dreamers. I’ve had the privilege of seeing startups find product-market fit, marketers (like me) find unexpected collaborations, and most importantly, people finding their tribe. संगच्छध्वं संवदध्वं – Let us move together, speak together. It’s not just a verse from the Rigveda — it’s how Jatin and the entire eChai community truly operate. We don’t just network, we grow together. Forever grateful to be a part of the eChai Effect.
