In the final days on my trip to Mumbai, I’m feeling like I’ve just begun to scratch the surface of life in this city and this industry. There are so many layers to life in the city, but alas, the United States are calling my name once again. I feel very fortunate to have had [...]

So I am finding it very hard to believe that films are actually started and completed in India. There just seems to be a lackadaisical sense of professionalism within the Indian tv/film industry.

Since it has been so hot everyone is welcoming the rains, but it is hard for me to enjoy them. The one [...]

My internship(s) got off to a very rocky start. The first day Jahaan and I went to Bandra together to meet with people at Mukta Arts. I was so happy to have her with me because first days are so nerve wracking and [...]
