I am an Indian filmmaker and cinematographer. My work explores themes of memory, place and identity, with a focus on women and children. Most recently, I worked as a creative producer and editor on 'Tiffin', a short fiction film about the alienation felt by Muslim children in an increasingly right-wing India. I helmed the camera for ‘Hotel Naaz’, a short documentary about a third-generation Muslim Woman, who unwittingly rediscovers her relationship with her grandfather as she traces the history of their family hotel- Naaz Hotel and Purani Dilli. Other works include ‘Cities and Lovers’ and ‘Hum Jinns’, which have been video art projects on exploring the concept of space, love and personal identities in the changing landscape of urban life. I completed my Masters in Mass Communication, from AJK MCRC New Delhi, and have a Bachelors Honour degree in Political Science from Lady Shri Ram College for Women, Delhi University. Currently, I am pursuing Electronic Cinematography at the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII), Pune. Besides Film and Media, I have actively practise theatre and music. And, I enjoy photographing in quaint streets.

I'am a commercial and a documentary film maker focused on Human stories. My work has taken me across different corners of the country in search of stories that are not mainstream or mostly under reported. The amount of work I've done so far has given me a distinct perspective on sharing narratives with honesty, accuracy and empathy with an awareness of the potential impact on people’s lives. Along with character driven documentaries that inspire, educate and advocate for a social change, I also love to tell and dream of making stories that are paradoxically unassuming yet grand, romantic rendezvous that are purely about passion, exploration of self and the complexities of the human experience.

I was born in Eastern India in 1990 and grew up reading comics, playing cricket, and listening to classic rock - this trifecta I hope has prepared me for life. An early interest in technology took me to study engineering for my bachelor's degree where I discovered photography thanks to my brother who bought a camera and was gracious enough to let me use it. A few years from then, I finished an MA in Photography from the University for the Creative Arts, UK. My interest in visual narrative further expanded to films and documentaries and I’ve had an independent career since 2016 with a practice in sports, people & lifestyle and social development.
