The Average Indian Woman

She wakes up with the sun, And ties her hair like a bun. Makes tea for everyone, And coffee for her son. Water her green plants, while making the daily plans. Does the dishes, maybe, Regardless of her wishes. Wraps a long piece of cloth around her, In a way that only she knows how. Clings on to the back seat of a scooter, That would take years to master. At office, its work,work and work. Back home, its work again. "It's midnight, let me sleep", she says. And............. She wakes up with the sun, And ties her hair like a bun... Yet they call her the 'average' Indian woman. ...

The Indian Male Syndrome

Wants to screw everything that moves, Rapes everything that refuses. Dreams of sex all night and day, and then, Calls 'her' a whore who thinks like 'him'. And then on the wedding day he asks, Are you a virgin my dear woman? Fascinating really, how absurd he is, Considering the number of 'sluts' he kills at birth.

AD-ventures

Movies are a great way to connect with people. 'Ad-ventures' is a campaign looking to integrate that factor into making Ads. I've used screenshots of major movies and tried to associate a brand.

Little Rascals, 1994 Psycho, 1960 Shawshank Redemption, 1994 Truman Show,  1998 Schindler's List,  1993 UP, 2009 The Matrix, 1999 Inception, 2010 Movie shots used as advertisements.  I seriously hope nobody will sue me for doing thi...

Killed in the name of God

On 4th August the life of Satnam Singh Mann, a law under graduate from National Law university, Lucknow, came to an abrupt end due to unnatural causes in judicial custody of the Karunagappally Police Station in Kollam District of Kerala.

When Love Was Arranged

“Life isn't weird: it's just the people in it.” I distinctly remember that day when I travelled alone in a private bus for the first time. I was the first fourth grade girl to do that. My dad was away on his usual business trips and mom couldn’t get out of the bank due to ‘closing related activities’ if I remember right. And I had always wanted to travel alone. Dad had agreed but only after being promised that I would stay away from strangers. Somehow ever since that school annual day I’ve lived my life with an aversion for strangers, which is remarkably ‘strange’ for a fashion photographer, who has to deal with weird people all day long. But that’s how I’ve been all my life. Some guys even used to think I’m a lesbian because I kept turning...
