On a recent video shoot with Samira Kanwar and the crew from Sutasi, we landed up at a Kathak / Bharathnatyam dance recital in Malleshwaram’s Seva Sadan. This was a very nice Kathak recital that was in progress when we landed up and I managed to get right up to the front of the stage to click this just before it ended

It was a once in a lifetime chance to see 70s disco king Bappi Lahiri perform live and he did not disappoint! Just as advertised, he came by, ran through a 20 minute medley of his hits from the 70s and had the crowds jumping and dancing to it! Infact, one of the most unique things you will ever get to see is a Bappi Lahiri concert where there [...]

Over last weekend, I helped out backstage with the TFA / Rafiki collaborative production, ‘Woyzeck’ directed by Anmol Vellani. It is there that I saw first hand how much preparation and work goes into putting up a theatre production! Its much much harder than a simple band going on stage and playing a show! Anish and Aashish are [...]

This particular photo was inspired by my good friend Anup who is a brilliant photographer among other things! This is a standard trick where you begin zoom in while the shutter is half depressed and zoom in completely before the shot is made. Sometimes when the light is nice, the results are just brilliant!

Shilpa came to Bombay on an impulse this weekend and ended up being the photographer at our gig at NMIMS. This is her photograph which I edited. She absolutely loves the D300 I can guarantee you!

Those few moments before you go on stage are different for different people! there was a time I remember when I just started playing music, that I would get really nervous before a show and those last few minutes before the show started, I would be fully quiet and trying to run through all that I have to do on stage! This was one of those [...]

Siva always gets a raw deal WRT photographs during the show. Most photographers tend to focus heavily on the guys in front and neglect the drummer . However, he always has the best shots during sound check! Its quite wierd for me to be part of the band doing a soundcheck and my camera always next to me so I can click some shots for the blog! [...]

Premila is the actual music director! even though I am credited with the title, she knows the music through and through when we start out practicing. But she has way too much on her hands to take care of during the musical and so I handle the sync with the script and the actors. She is an amazing person, an excellent pianist and a very good [...]

Picture taken at the Sula Vineyard festival where there was some super food, wine and music. The picture was taken by Shilpa while I think “The Raghu Dixit Project” was on stage or was that the Blues band that was on stage?
