Early life and education


Tikaram is the son of Pramod Tikaram, an Indo-Fijian officer of British Army, and Fatimah Rohani, a Sarawakian mother. His younger sister is singer-songwriter Tanita Tikaram. The family moved frequently during Tikaram's youth, because of his father's military service with the British army. He attended military school in Dover before studying English at Kent University, where he discovered acting.[3][4]
