the cat

what makes you so content mr. cat?

what's your purpose in life, don't you worry about that?

how are you planning to catch your next rat?

you seem so sure of your place under the sun.

you don't seem to be keen to impress any one.

how i admire your style,your poise.

you've so much class and yet, make no noise.

the taj mahal hotel, mumbai before nov.26, 2008

img source: Taj images

this is how the taj once was. before the terrorists tried to bring it down.

why is destruction so much easier than creation? so much quicker? why does it call for the baser human emotions.?

the taj will stand again. mumbai will stand again. stronger. and more vigilant. my city weeps. my city cries. my city prevails. god bless mumbai.

the blue kitchen

check out this old, spacious traditional kitchen. at the end of the raised platform sit the gods. the cupboards are built-in with a netted cover to prevent insects entering. the floors are cool, black, stone.

check out my sari

love the pose. and the sari - a traditional maharashtrian khan. this photograph was shot in a museum near ganpatipule - featuring traditional customs and ways of life of people in the konkan region.

on my wishlist

beautiful, fun, creative. sabyasachi's clothes are always to pine for.

marketplace

the marketplace in sangli, a town in maharashtra, india. check the cap and pajamas of the cycle holding guys. and the caps. these caps are known as 'gandhi' caps and are very common here.

mavlas for making diwali forts, sangli, india

these colourful soldiers and warriors are used to decorate diwali forts that kids make. the stall was still being set up when this photograph was taken.
