| Morning rituals of a basic Udaipur household A bhramin family washes clothes, utensils and a rickshaw on lal ghat on an early morning.


| before the childhood dies The liberal happiness of the child reminds me of how my childhood died and I have started living as an adult. I could have been a child all my life, but materiality of life is a silent killer of a lot of children. I am just part of the same singing,same dancing crap of the world which we affectionately call 'LIFE'


| a basic household of Jodhpur Love how the staircases and corridors become the spill out and multi usage spaces of the house. It actually builds up the character of the streets and adds drama for the passengers. Is it the way the built and planning should be catered to ? Let's not over design.


| ship breakers of Alang The back bone of the Bhavnagar economy. These workers are given a cylinder a day to Finish for gas cutting, the fumes and sparks from this processes comes in direct contact of these workers which leads to numerous health related complications. And there are a number of children involved in the whole lot, but the question is this all legal ? "Absolutely fucking not !"

| what time is it ? Time is a very unique entity of its own. It does and doesn't exist simultaneously. It's presence marks your life and the all the little drops your life is made up of. Nearly impossible to capture yet elastic and fluid enough to be recognised.

| Jodhpur dreams


| Himalayan adventures.


| ladies of the house. Strolling through the mountains and came across this group of females.


| children around cheni fort, HP This is my reflection on the social gathering. When you enter a space to capture it, you are not capturing space itself but your reflections on it. A single action has a rippling effect on things around you. This is a similar case, this is an image of group of children reacting to a photographer.


| basic love of things


| you are ruined, you change and make things right. You are scarred from places , beautiful at times.

| appropriate spaces From a drawing to a doodle, a collage of aspirations,ideas, budget and requirements. Built , appropriated and built more. Such spaces challenge modern day practice's of smooth surface and right angles.

| concrete vegetation of millennium city. The vertically of the city amazes me. Top frame of scenes are porcelain living of unfinished dream's on bank loans and bottom frames are the scares of a dieing city and citizens move.


| the city of Delhi welcomes you. The saddest light I have seen in so many years of my stay in Delhi. It's the green place scene from the film 'madmax' , where there is no green left, stick witch's take over and no resources worth consuming. I am afraid this city.
