He was popularly known as Manya Surve, was an Indian Underworld Don in Mumbai. He was one of the educated gangsters who graduated from Kirti College in the stream of chemistry and very well known for challenging and defeating existing gangs.

He was a fond reader of James Hadley Chase and pick up his plots from his novels  As a young man and graduate of Kirti College, Manya Surve was implicated in a murder that he did not commit and was sentenced to imprisonment in Yerwada Jail. He would quite often pick up fights with the rival gangs in the jail therefore he was transferred to another jail. He staged a hunger strike in the jail in protest of his tramsfer there. Because of his hunger strike he fast lost 20 kilograms of his weight therefore he was transferred to a hospital for medical care from where escaped to his freedom.

Within just two years of activity, his crew rose to such prominence that the Pathans, who had ruled the underworld for over two decades, sought his help in murdering the Konkani-speaking Kaskar brothers, Dawood Ibrahim Kaskar and Shabbir Ibrahim Kaskar, the leaders of their archrival gang, D-Company. Haji Mastan Mirza had brokered a truce between D-Company and Pathan Gang of Kareem Lala to stop the blood bath that was going on because of the gang war between the two warring factions. The two group didn't stop fighting and hitting at each other after the truce but avoided a direct face off to avoide wrath of Haji Mastan Mirza who was the Godfather of Mumbai mafia at the time. Manya Surve murdered Shabbir Ibrahim Kaskar. He thereafter rose inthe  ranks of Mumbai mafia.

Following the murder of Shabir Ibrahim Kaskar, Manya Surve's fellow accomplices began to fall off one by one. Noticing this, Manya Surve laid low. He was sandwiched two rivals, police whom he considered as his arch rival for wrongfully implicating in the murder and sentencing to a jail term, and D-Company whom he had picked as a rival ar the instigation of Pathan Gang of Kareem Lala. Meanwhile, local law enforcement was preparing operations to reduce persistent mob violence with an onslaught of targeted assassinations. Inspectors Isaque Bagwan and Raja Tambhat, with Senior Inspector Y. D. Bhide, was put in charge of taking down Manya Surve. Manya Surve was killed in 1982 by the Maharashtra police which is regarded as Mumbai's Mumbai police's first encounter killing.
