A collection showcasing my work, from live sketches at events to custom hand-painted wooden gifts.

This is where the magic happens. Watch as I bring a character to life with just a few strokes of the pen at a corporate event. This is the energy and entertainment I bring to every party, creating a fun spectacle for guests and a unique keepsake for the subject.

Nothing makes a wedding celebration more memorable than unique entertainment. Here's a happy couple at their Hyatt haldi function with a fun caricature to remember their special day. I love adding a touch of artistic fun to wedding festivities.

The pure joy on a child's face is the best reward. This little guy's laughter says it all. My live caricatures are a huge hit at birthday parties and family gatherings, providing a fun activity and a wonderful return gift for kids.

Looking for a perfect, personalized gift? I create custom digital caricatures from your photos, like this one for a lovely couple. It's a fantastic idea for anniversaries, birthdays, or just to celebrate your relationship in a unique way.

Your caricature doesn't just have to be on paper. I create these beautiful and functional wooden keychain holders, hand-painted with a custom couple portrait. It's a piece of art that you can use every single day.

A great way to appreciate your team. These framed digital caricatures were created as farewell gifts for colleagues, capturing their personalities and hobbies. It's a memorable and personal corporate gifting idea that always brings a smile.

I absolutely love drawing pets with their humans. This digital portrait captures the wonderful bond between a smiling owner and her adorable dog. Send me a photo of your furry friend, and I'll create a keepsake you can cherish forever.

From a simple family photo, I can create a vibrant and lively group caricature. This piece brings together the whole family in my classic cartoon style, exaggerating their features to capture their fun personalities. It's a great way to create a unique family portrait.

About Featured

Whether I am sketching guests live at a haldi function or turning your favorite photo into a custom wooden standee, the process is straightforward. You simply send me the reference photos and your ideas, and I handle the creative side. For custom pieces, I always include a digital proof before finalizing, so we make sure the caricature captures exactly the vibe you want.

How My Caricature Art Works

I treat every project as a piece of storytelling. If you are looking to hire a live caricature artist for an event, my focus is speed and engagement. I draw in real-time, which keeps the energy high and gives your guests a fun, hand-drawn souvenir they can take home immediately. This works particularly well for corporate get-togethers, weddings, and birthday parties in Pune, Mumbai, and beyond.

Custom Portraits & Keepsakes

Beyond live events, I work from my studio on custom commissions. These include:

  • Digital Portraits: Clean, high-resolution files perfect for social media or printing.
  • Framed Prints: Matte or semi-gloss finishes with professional framing, ideal for farewell gifts or office desks.
  • Wooden Standees: My signature item. These are die-cut from engineered wood with a glossy finish, creating a 3D pop-out effect that looks great on any desk.

My Process

It is simple. We start with your photos. If you want a 'hatke' (different) style, just tell me. Whether it is a couple, a family, or a pet, I aim to exaggerate the right features to bring out the personality. You get a digital proof to approve before I print or mount the final piece. My goal is always to make sure the final artwork is something you will actually want to keep, not just throw in a drawer.

Whether you need an Indian caricature artist for a quick sketch or a detailed portrait, reach out and let's get started.
