"I create custom mythological paintings, murals, and ritual textiles based on deep research in Indian scriptures, using traditional styles and personal storytelling."

For me, painting is not just work; it's my way of searching for meaning. I bring together research and pure gut feeling, mixing stories from Indian mythology with the boldness of Chola lines and the colours of Ajanta. I try to make my art a real offering, something deeper than just a pretty picture.
My focus is on Indian mythology painting and philosophy – think stories of Devi, Shiva, and Vishnu. Whether it’s Lalita Tripurasundari’s energy, Shiva’s wanderings, or epic moments from the Ramayana, I spend hours in scriptures so that every image feels alive.
If you want something personal and are patient with the slow art process, I’d love to work together to bring a piece of these stories into your space.

My Story
My Work
What I Offer - Thematic Bharatanatyam productions (solo, duet, collaborations), painting exhibitions with art talks, and research-based workshops on Indian art and mythology.
My Approach - It’s never just about performing. I dig into shastras, epics—stories like Shikhandi and Ras-E-Raskhan—then shape them for today.
Art Meets Dance - My painting style—Chola-inspired lines, Ajanta colors—feeds my choreography. Both arts live together at @thenatyachitra.
Stories Close to Me - Solo acts like Shikhandi and UnEklavya aren’t just tales, but questions. I want audiences to feel, to think, to connect.
