Illustration Friday : Adapt
After a long contemplation I decide to draw something which had left a haunting image in my mind long back as kid." Bagh Bahadur " or " The Tiger Dancer" ( 1989) a national award winning children's film directed by Buddhadeb Dasgupta. The story goes something like this, Ghunuram ( Pavan Malhotra ) is a Tiger dancer by choice where he performs fake combats with humans and entertains people of the village. But his fate makes him adapt a situation where he faces the real beast and the film ends with a depressing note with the real beast winning over the adapted one. A must watch for kids and adults specially for Pavan Malhotra's mind blowing performance as Ghunuram. Enjoy !!

The Wise n The Holy Men
The stand-alone
The Beard-o-
The Rasta Priest
The Highness
The Radio-active ( courtesy Ravi )Its been for a long time that I have enjoyed drawing the saffron clad , perpetually high on holy-weed Saint/Sages/Priest. Devoid of any such materialistic binding they hold the most amazing characters in them through their attire and their rusty weathered looks. With age really the wisdom comes into you I suppose !!!

One fine summer afternoon
I shifted to a new apartment few days back...it's away from the hullabaloo of Mumbai-madness in Borivili. Small and peaceful dwelling for two of us (me and Ravi). As recession still haunts me sometimes, my imagery keeps me calm. Tried out my hands on ever loving water colour..the toughest of medium to deal with...I think I still havent lost it yet...enjoy !!!!

When your rooster crows at the break of dawn...
Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm trav'lin' on
Don't think twice, it's all right.

Book cover
A book cover done for Random House which never saw the light of day...they wanted the characters to look " sexy" and "pretty" something like an indianised version of "mills and boons" at the same time the reader should be in love with them which amused me a bit....so ended up not continuing the project....I enjoyed doing this in the essence of the 70's film posters.
