Sidhart Joe Dev is a passionate video producer from Penang, renowned for his storytelling prowess in short films, commercials, and mini-documentaries. His expertise also encompasses producing and hosting talk shows, political interviews, and engaging lifestyle shows and podcasts.
Sidhart’s versatility extends into local theatre, where he has excelled as a writer, director, and actor. His notable works include plays such as A Streetcar Named Desire, Antigone, and the Bollywood musical Rab Ne Bana di Jodi, as well as Jungle Book The Musical.
In 2022, Sidhart entered the Kuala Lumpur art scene by participating in Joe Hasham's You, Me, and The Big C.

In 2023, Sidhart featured in Fa Abdul’s monologue series His Story and Theatresauce’s They All Die at The End, an all-Indian male ensemble show exploring themes of Indian masculinity, identity, and family history. He also portrayed Sultan Mahmud Shah in Joe Hasham’s modern retelling of Jebat.
