CreaTEAvity !!



Whenever I see a teabag
 I always wonder
 what a tiny little package of adventure...
exciting mysterious beautiful
 cozy and sweet little adventure!!

Tea has the charisma
 to bring hearts closer
Us indian families 
(especially)
 can actually say so !
Our day begins with a cup of masala chai
Now this masala may vary in every kitchen
then breakfast with everyone and you have tis humble drink again
after you are back from office after a tired day
tea with your spouse is the most luxurious thing you could enjoy!




  The glass, the warmth, the tea
the strangers, the friends, the family
the laughters, the smiles or a sad story
squeezing the moments...in the vapours of memory!



My installation work 
for  KalaGhoda Art Festival 2016 
is in full swing
 and I am enjoying every bit of it.
 As promised in my last post
 I will be sharing some cool art with all of you.
 Stay tuned :)

Adventure is out there!



Ok I am on an adventure again!
Kala Ghoda Association 
was formed on 30th October 1998
 with the object of maintaining 
and
 preserving the heritage and art district of Mumbai. 
Every year since then
 Kala Ghoda Art Festival
 is held which is a  week long 
mesmerizing
carnival of literature, theatre, 
dance, music, films and visual art! 
And so activities like rock concerts, 
literary workshops, culinary classes,
 heritage walks , street performances,
 huge visual art installations
 are the top favourite of one and all!
Funds raised from this iconic festival go towards the restoration and maintenance of the area. It is open to all and entry is free for all events.
So you can mingle around with artists, autors, performers and celebrities from Cinema and theatre.
And now the HAPPY NEWS...
I am all excited 
to be a part of this
 plethora of creativity and culture!
Yes I would be putting up an installation. 
The festival this year runs from 6th of February to 17th of February.
So stay tuned
for more on Kala Ghoda Arts Festival 2016 
and also my work in progress pictures.

For now enjoy these photos from the past festivals..






























More on your way!!

I believe!

This is not going to be just another year
and I can sense that
The year started beautifully
 with a lot of family time
Then two of my childhood school friends visited me here...
loads of love
sparkling laughter
homemade food
old memories
...what else could I ever wish for!!
We met after thirty years can you believe it!!

Old friends are irreplaceable!!
I believe growing up apart
 and these many years 
do not matter if your hearts
 are tangled together!!

The best moments are when you tell each other..."REMEMBER WHEN..."




So friends
We begin our journey
afresh
and I believe
we will stay connected forever and ever!
As I thank God for the Abundance I am blessed with
I know much more is on my way!



Let us keep creating !
