A few months ago we met
@_ssaleh , he had a story to tell about a man he stumbled upon a few years back while on a sunrise shoot, A man who was running a Yoga class on the creek in Deira. Later we learned that he had been running this free for all Yoga class for over 25 years. The community called him GURUJI.
We had the privilege of capturing his story in a short film called Guruji, a small window into a life built on purpose, not noise.
At a time when everything moves fast and value is often measured in scale, this is a reminder that impact can also be quiet, consistent, and deeply human.
It’s one of those untold stories of Dubai that deserves to be seen.
Because sometimes, the most meaningful work isn’t about visibility it’s about purpose.
