About Work

India’s rich cultural and religious diversity has always been at the heart of my photographic exploration. A land where over a hundred languages are spoken, it is held together by a deep sense of humanity. What draws me in the most, however, are its people—their stories, expressions, and ways of life.

Every region carries a unique essence, where landscapes dictate attire, traditions, and lifestyles. Colors shift from the muted tones of the East to the vibrant hues of the West, mirroring the contrasts within. Yet, amidst these differences, festivals bring people together, dissolving socio-economic barriers. My work seeks to capture this shared spirit—the curiosity in every eye, the warmth in every heart, and the simplicity in every smile. Through my lens, I document not just the diversity of India, but the emotions that connect us all.
