About Me

I come from a place famous for its food round the globe, Indore. That also pretty much makes me a foodie. 
Jim Morrison once said -
'There are things known and things unknown and in between, there are Doors'

... Cinema, travel and adventure have been the doors for me in my exploration. After spending two years in the world's biggest film industry, Bollywood, I realised that I need more, I need to explore alternative ways of travel and filmmaking both, together and separately, I'm a part of a two year Self Designed Learning programme in an alternative learning space called Swaraj University and currently based out of Pune, working as a Drum Circle Facilitator and experiential travel curator.
I feel my seeking has just begun and the world is still a vast territory for me, won't be for long!
