Another year leaning into passion, framing stories, chasing light, and gathering moments that linger. 2025 unsettled me in the best way, in a filmmaking landscape that keeps shifting, asking more of me after years of comfort. Grateful for friends, family, and love that held steady. Happy 2026 everyone. Let’s go! #2025 #travel #documentary #filmmaking #incredibleindia

We have learnt a lot We are still learning a lot We are still on it.... The Enchanting 8 are gorgeous and have the most incredible cuisines. The nuances, the sophistication in technique and layering of flavours. The ebb and flow of history is mapped across each dish and its variations. It transcends borders and understanding of what Indian cuisine means. #NortheastIndia #Northeast #Assam #India #indiancuisine #nagaland #ArunachalPradesh #thebigforkers #meghalaya #Tripura #mizoram #Manipur #sikkim

Six years ago, I met you at the crossroads of my career. I now realize that along the path of filming you prescribe Charlie Chaplin films to heal your patients, I cured too. Spending time with you, I found answers to my life's questions. Dr Ashok Sukhumal Aswani, you were a true hero and a rare gem. As I open your messages for one last time, I am trying my best to smile. I am praying that your dream to meet your best friend Sir Charles Spencer Chaplin is coming true and I hope that you are at peace now.
