Tehelka was a news agency that was known for consistently pushing the boundaries of hard hitting investigative journalism in India. During my year spent there as a print designer I created layouts and illustrations that would help communicate the articles to the reader. The challenge was to work within the house style every week, and break the grid when needed to create visual impact. The process involved working back and forth with the journalists, photographers and a digital production team. graphicdesigner illustrator printdesigner editorialdesigner

Bench is a comic strip that talks about Delhi’s people and their behaviour on benches. The ‘bench’ is a western object in Indian society and is interesting in the way it forces one to interact with the environment around them. Delhi has an eclectic mix of people from various cultural backgrounds; the strip was an attempt to show how they interact. illustrator comicartist graphicdesigner storyteller sequentialdesign storyboardartist

Organic homegrown meals, hands-on local guides and the finely crafted rustic decor makes the experience at the retreat, one of a kind.
