A monastery in LEH.

Saturday, October 8, 2011






In these days of discord, disharmony, conflict and competition, finding affinity between two entities which are geographically far apart and no match to each other in respect of socio-economic or cultural semblance, is impossibility. But that is what this photo series did and went on to find the impossible - A small slum area in the heart of the posh new city of Ahmedabad called HOLLYWOOD. The actual name of the area is Gulbhaitekra but it has been popularly known as HOLLYWOOD for the last 4 decades for the reason that the women living here have a rustic beauty and glamour which is compared to that of Hollywood stars.

FOR THE REST OF THE SERIES PLEASE GO VISIT THE DELHI PHOTO FESTIVAL AT THE INDIAN HABITAT CENTER FROM OCT 15 TO OCT 28.



For all those who love photography, it is worth a visit!

Me : Do you kids work here?
Salim : Hahahaha...No!
Abdul : We are from Aligarh. We are here to spend our summer vacations with our chachu. This is his workplace.
Aatif : Its fun to break all this scrap. 
Salim : Are you from America?
Me : No! I am not from America. Why?
Salim : We want to go and work in America.

And then followed giggles! :)
