I’m a freelance filmmaker, cinematographer, and photographer, working across India and internationally. My work focuses on honest, story-driven visuals that feel both grounded and cinematic. I’ve spent a lot of time in documentary-style and real-world storytelling, and I’m always open to exploring new formats and collaborating on different kinds of projects. I also run Studio DeBlur, a video production agency for larger productions and projects that require a full team and structured execution. If you’re working on something that needs strong visual storytelling or a clear creative perspective, I’d be happy to connect.
