Mayana Kollai Festival is an important festival that occurs every February or March in the small village of Kaveripattinam, Tamil Nadu, India, the day after Mahashivarathiri. The festival is dedicated to Angalamman, a fierce guardian deity widely worshipped in Southern India.

Rajasthan is a land of vibrant colours, historic cities, desert landscapes, and rich cultural traditions. During my travels through Jaipur, Pushkar, Jodhpur, and Jaisalmer, I was drawn not only to its architecture and landscapes but also to the people and everyday moments that give each place its unique character.

Portrait photography has always been an important part of my documentary work. Whenever I travel, I enjoy meeting people, learning about their lives and culture, and creating portraits that reflect their individuality.

In 2014, I photographed a Therukoothu performance in Nangamangalam, near Kanchipuram in Tamil Nadu. Performed through the night in village streets and open spaces, Therukoothu is one of Tamil Nadu's oldest surviving forms of folk theatre, combining music, dance, storytelling, and drama.
