Kumbh Stories
Kumbh Mela is more than the colours of women’s clothes, men’s turbans or shots of bathers or activities of naga sadhus as most often it is portrayed. Everyone with camera keeps wandering in the search of something wondrous.

Bahurupiya
Bahurupiya: English synonym impersonator is close but didn’t carry the exact meaning as bahurupiya is not just a performer but a blend of director, script-dialogue writer, choreographer, musician and makeup artist- all in one.

Annual Tragedy
The disease of encephalitis is a curse for eastern part of Uttar Pradesh. During last decade it proved fatal for hundreds of children in the districts of Gorakhpur, Kushinagar, Siddharthanagar & Maharajganj. The situation has become more critical because of lack of medical aid required to cope up as well as negligence of hygiene in effected areas. My plan is to document the agony of families who lost their dear ones and the irony of those who could survive.

BIO
I am a wanderer and love to document stories of our time and narrate them visually. This is why people and streets are my favorite subjects as a photographer. I strive to narrate the tales of the people with latent faces, who exist around us and always work to make a difference in our world but most often go unnoticed – be a labour or farmer, prostitute or pilgrim, cobbler or a butcher. I believe that reality is more important rather than making my pictures aesthetically perfect.
It was during my college days when a street vendor printing images on ordinary paper with the help a blue solution made me curious. After few months, I found myself standing beside the developing tray in the darkroom at a friend’s place whose father was a photographer. Looking at gradually developing latent images was a mysterious and fascinating phenomenon, as the evolution of life, that charmed me forever. That was my first encounter with the magic of photography Camera became a medium of expression of my feelings and when in hand it always makes me feel stronger.
