NON-FICTION.
YELEAT
In Yelahanka New Town, Bangalore:
There's a parallel world of street food that surrounds us.
This piece is an ode to a tiny segment of that world.
The title is a play on the word "Elite" - which is how the street stalls
in focus here, hope to describe themselves.
Music: Mother Died - Washboard Chaz Blues Trio.
Special Thanks:
Hot Chips Yelahanka, Mr. Prakash's Chat stall, 99 Variety dosa and its adjacent stalls.
RAIN, RAIN
Stuck in a bus stop in Bangalore City. Pouring rain, whizzing traffic, camera in hand with a single lens. Sheer beauty.
Serves as a companion piece to "Rain, Sigh"
(Shot entirely within my house in Madras)
Music: Ilayaraaja - Punnagai Mannan Theme.
Special Thanks:
Ashwin Gokhale, Hoshedar Shroff.
RAIN, SIGH
Rain is severe. No electricity, all outdoor plans cancelled.
Still quite the experience.
Serves as a companion piece to "Rain, Rain",

Music: Jim Croce - Time in A Bottle.
MANOHAR LAL MASHUP
A found footage mashup that captures the horrendously misogynistic mentality of one of India's "finest" lawyers.
Special thanks: Newslaundry's "I agree with Manohar Lal Sharma"
Music: Uptown Funk (karaoke)
