When Maithili Sharan Gupta, a famous Hindi poet, wrote years ago: “Abla Jeevan Hai Teri Yehi Kahani, Aanchal mein hai doodh aur aankhon mein paani” (What is the life of a helpless woman — tears in her eyes and a suckling child in her lap), he had portrayed a rather helpless image of women. That…
3 cheers to all these movie theaters who have screened countless movies and entertained Mumbaikars for so many decades. Long live these theaters and the entertainment business. Mere liye yeh documentation sirf tasveerein nahi, balki yaadon ka ek khazana hai. Mumbai ke cinema houses kabhi sheher ki shaan the — har Friday inke darwaze par…

Mawlānā Jalāl ad-Dīn Muhammad Rūmī ke alfaaz hamesha se dil ko choote aaye hain — unki baatein waqt, zubaan aur hadon se pare hain. Meri koshish rahi hai ki un timeless thoughts ko apni lens ke zariye, visuals aur videos ke roop me capture karun. 🌿 Rumi Series (Instagram Reels) Maine kuch chhoti chhoti videos banayi…
Street photography mere liye hamesha ek journey rahi hai — ek safar jo sirf logon ke chehron tak simit nahi, balki unke jazbaat, unki kahani aur unke sheher ki rooh tak jata hai. Har portrait ek chhoti si kahani hai, ek lamha jo kabhi wapas nahi aata. 2007 se lekar aaj tak main Mumbai aur…
Ye ujdi hui imaarat mere dil ke bahut kareeb thi aur hai. Bahut khushnuma lamhe yahan bitaye hain maine. Iska apna ek daur tha, aur us waqt ki raunak dekhne laayak thi. Kai saalon se meri wish-list me tha ki main is theatre ko document karoon. Maine koi kasar nahi chhodi permission lene me —…
Mumbai ki khaas chuni hui jagahon, chowks aur gardens me khadi ye mahanubhavo ki statues sirf pathar ki sanrachna nahi hain — ye hamare itihaas ki nishani hain. Har ek statue apni ek kahani rakhta hai, un rachnakaaron ki jo desh ki azaadi ke liye lade, samaj ke liye khade rahe, aur Mumbai aur Bharat…
Kabhi Prabhadevi junction par khada yeh rang-biranga Elephant Art Installation sirf ek sculpture nahi tha — balki ek traffic landmark tha. Metro station aane ke baad yeh jagah badal gayi hai, aur ab yeh installation wahin hoga ya kahin aur, koi nahi jaanta. Maine is installation ko alag-alag dinon, alag angles aur alag moods me document kiya….
Mumbai ke dabbewale duniya bhar me apni time-management aur dedication ke liye mashhoor hain. Unhi ke jazbe ko celebrate karta hua ek khubsurat art installation Haji Ali junction par lagaya gaya tha. Jab maine ise dekha, to bas ek hi ehsaas hua — ki Mumbai ki rooh bas inhi chhoti-badi cheezon me chhupi hai. Dabbewale…
