THE straight scar line running down the left side of Theebaan G’s face gives him a ‘tough guy’ impression. Plus, with his tall, and muscular figure, one could be forgiven for feeling a bit intimidated by him.
However, as you get to know him more, you will find out that he got the scar as a two-year-old following a bicycle accident, and that he is actually a super chill and down-to-earth person with a great sense of humour. And he likes the color pink, too!
Theebaan Govindasamy, 32, is no stranger shattering misconceptions, thanks to his experiences in the world of martial arts and acting. His martial arts experience began at the age of five, and he represented Malaysia in karate for seven years and was crowned National Karate Champion eight times, before becoming Malaysia’s Welterweight Champion in 2016 in the local mixed martial arts (MMA) scene.
