Cinematic Storytelling and Authentic Travel Films
I don’t just hit record; I chase the feeling of a place. Whether it’s golden hour in Hong Kong or a rainy day in Delhi, I love bottling those moods into frames you can actually feel.
This is the magic of professional drone videography. Capturing Hong Kong's skyline at sunrise required a 4 AM hike, but the resulting cinematic aerial footage, with its vibrant colors and grand scale, was absolutely worth it.
This is the kind of storytelling I love for pre-wedding films. We created a movie-style poster, "Jab Garima met Aarohan," to capture the unique story of a couple, complete with their furry friend, making it a truly personal and memorable keepsake.
I love capturing the electric atmosphere of cultural events. This short film from a Durga Pujo celebration uses smoke, warm lighting, and close-ups of the dhunuchi dance and dhak drums to immerse you in the devotion and energy of the festival.
Here’s a look at the power of artistic color grading. This clip shows a before and after of a shot from Hong Kong, filmed on an iPhone in ProRes Log and then transformed with my custom cinematic color palette to bring the scene to life.
Capturing an iconic landmark like the Taj Mahal requires a unique perspective. This shot, taken at sunrise from across the river, uses the silhouette and the soft morning light to create a serene and timeless travel photograph.
This is a glimpse of Colombo through my lens. A fast-paced montage like this is perfect for a travel documentary or a brand film, showcasing the city's diverse scenes from crashing waves and bustling street food stalls to tranquil temples.
This is me in my element, exploring the streets of Hong Kong with my Nikon camera. Being a travel filmmaker means I'm always ready to capture a story, whether I'm on a planned shoot or just walking down the street.
About this collection
My process starts with finding the light. When I am shooting these landscapes or city scenes, I am constantly balancing the raw, 4K detail of my Nikon Z8 with the spontaneity of my phone. I color grade everything manually using my own custom LUTs, because that moody, cinematic look isn't an accident, it is a deliberate choice to match the emotion of the moment.
How I See the World
Every film I make begins with curiosity. Whether I am trekking at 4 AM for an aerial shot in Hong Kong or waiting for the rain in Delhi to turn an ordinary street into a moody scene, my goal remains the same. I want to show you the world the way I see it.
The Technical Side
People often ask about my gear, and while my Nikon Z8 is my workhorse for those high-quality 4K landscapes, I am not afraid to shoot on my iPhone if it means catching the vibe in the moment. I use my own custom color presets and LUTs to edit every single frame. This gives my work that consistent, cinematic aesthetic you see throughout this gallery.
Beyond the Frame
I don't believe in stiff poses. My documentary approach means I document the chaos of a Durga Pujo celebration or the quiet stillness of a Himalayan valley as they happen. If you are looking for someone to capture your wedding or a brand story with this same raw, narrative-driven style, let's talk. I am based in Delhi but travel constantly for projects that excite me.
