He is probably most famous for the remake of the song “Cheerio” by The Monroes. He renamed this song Tsjeriåu/Tsjeriå. In the music video for this song he appears as a baby and DJ Løv dressed as a Marine with The Monroes. Ravi is also famous for his short body, red hair and beard.

He was part of creating Jaga Jazzist and he’s played with Briskeby.

Ravi has also appeared in “Venn” by Espen Lind and Lene Marlin which was made to raise money for tsunami victims.

Ravi has released many albums, in his own “Ravi language”, he writes things phonetically, e.g. “cheerio” = “tsjeriåu”, “kroppen min” (my body) = kråpn min, and “it’s too late to cry” = “its tu leit tu krai”.

Some of his other known songs are “Utadæsjælåplevelse”, “E-Ore”, “Ås To I Osjlo” and “Dødssøt”.

Currently he is the host of the show “Landeplage” on NRK.
