GWALIOR SHILP MELA 2013

                                          It was my rapacious desire to present Gwalior Shilp Mela through my lens. As am counting my fag end days  in Gwalior clicking this vibrant,colorful and photogenic fair was simply inevitable. I chose slanting sun (post afternoon hrs) to visit this historical mela. The feel of this shilp mela is great and you can find a variety of handicrafts made through generations displayed for sale and exhibition. Artist from all over the country participate in  Shilp Mela to make it one of the most sought after places in Gwalior. I personally feel it is poorly promoted by Madhya Pradesh Tourism. It deserves much better crowds and visitors. So am doing my bit to respect the art and skill of those million people who work hard all over the years to bring this spectacular show before us. The photographs are my own hard clicked snaps to give you an eagle eye view of the fair. I hope the peep through my lens would excite you enough to make it a trip to Gwalior and witness  the magic through your own pair of eyes. I invite your comments as i love to read what you feel about my work no matter  it comes in the form of a complaint. But do comment.

Taxi Driver

                                               It’s a story of a taxi driver whom I met while commuting from Bandra terminus to Kurla Railway Station in Mumbai (I still call it Bombay sometimes). After my train Ranakpur Express left me at Bandra   Terminus I was in a hurry to reach Kurla Railway Station for my onward journey to Bangalore (namma bengaluru) my home.  As I moved to the exit way on the Bandra terminus I saw him in a crowd vying for his customers amongst his peers. Unlike others he wasn’t loud and audacious. He was subtle, content and cheerful. I made my way towards him. We settled for an appropriate fare and he parked my luggage with oblige. On a smooth day it’s half an hour drive with moderate traffic as I know very less of Mumbai.  As we started moving from Bandra terminus he started with a conversation and asked m...

I love you for infinite reasons...

I am for you and you are for me, we knew this right from the first day of our formal interaction. At this crucial stage of life I am 6000 miles away from you but its my call and i don't have a choice. Sorry for i m not with you. Even more sorry for the reason that your people and my people are not there with you. It was supposed to be like this but we have the art of survival and that too a happy one so we will sail until we reach the destiny of togetherness. Its just a testing time and we ll have some more to sail through. One day on the horizon we ll see a sun as bright as our hopes and a moon as calm as our patience. That day the day will be more bright and the night little more cool. I have a faith, a faith that is unconditional, just like our love.                                          ---- Dedicated to my sweet wife surviving in the summer of India.

Jiyo Dil Se

‘A young executive was nervously biting her nails.’ Unable to decide between work ethics and Jiyo Dil Se attitude she chose the latter. 2 days back:                    It was evening 7 pm on Mira's wrist watch and she has been wanting to walk up to the coffee vending machine for a break. Her day starts at 9 am in the NEOTEL call center where she works as a customer care executive. She just got over from a customer call regarding some billing issue. This was not a usual day to day call that she handles at a flick. It was a call from a person named Ankit Kaushik. Though she recognized his voice from the word 'hello' itself but her job protocol urged her to take details of his name and cellphone number to discharge her service as an executive. She wanted to scream on the phone to say she was Mira but her call sign name Mandy was mandatory as company s policy in answering query. She resolved Ankit's ...
