I have said this often and say it yet again. An uncomplicated hug makes even the hardest day more bearable… I have known Rakesh Shukla for many years now. Over the last few years I have seen him change and get more and more immersed in what is his passion- dogs. He is the founder […]
For a whole bunch of reasons I have been unable to release my next two collections. And that as you can imagine is beyond frustrating. They are ready and yet… Also I have been working on a series of paintings as a sort of narrative, an attempt to tell the story of a person or […]
I have known Laila Waziralli and Diva Ganriwal for a few years now. In fact I used to take Laila’s dog, Noodles, for a walk many years ago when we lived in the same locality. They lived a few houses down from ours in the same lane. Noodles would walk over to our house with […]
I love it when Poonchh travels and ‘The Poonchh Collection‘ is traveling again this weekend. We will be at the Kitsch Mandi on the 25th of Jan 2015, at Pebble in Palace Grounds, Bangalore from 1pm to 11 pm. It is a Sunday. And there is a whole host of stalls and music to liven […]

My work and I feature on the cover and within the pages of the September 2014 issue of ‘The Curated Magazine’. And I am thrilled. For two reasons – one because this is the first time that a person has been featured on the cover of this magazine and two because Priya Iyer, released a […]
My flight landed at the Goa Airport to sweltering heat. I was a little nervous, not really sure of what the next three days were going to be about. And then I saw a military jet do a near vertical take off and I was home. It brought back memories of living in airbases growing […]
I am off to Goa for a few days to participate in The Goa Project. ‘The Goa Project is an ‘unconference’ of sorts, a melting pot that harnesses the collective creativity of people from different walks of life. Game changers from tech, music, science, philosophy, arts, humanities and other backgrounds come together to exchange ideas, […]
