It was such an honour to meet a man with such an appetite for reinventing himself, with a singular focus on giving back, the openness to work with young directors, the curiosity to understand cutting edge technology and above all gracious warmth communicated through a few words.

What jhumka??:-))
Thank you @weaversvillagestore for this most beautiful saree.
I got this Weaversvillage Balaramapuram pitloom saree, the last time I was in Trivandrum for the documentary film festival. Thanks Sobha, I absolutely loved wearing it at @mbifl , a festival of letters, for a session on plurality on my second visit to Trivandrum ❤️
The jhumakas are my mothers and the fragrance of the flowers was divine.
Kept it by my bedside.

Thank you @kolkatalitmeet for celebrating @irrfan with such warmth.
The session opened with the scene of Ashok and Ashima ( Namesake )walking through Victoria memorial, a short distance away from where we were sitting, and wondering what words would escape in trying to speak about Irrfan.
@shubhragupta @tigmanshudhulia aap dono ko humara Salam. Thanks @chatterjeeshahana
for the thoughtful conversation.
My parents began their romance at Victoria memorial. They had a tree where they met. It was lovely to have them with me that day. They walked to their tree. A day to remember.

Aamina Ismail a naturalist at @forsythlodge
The dragonfly and Damselfly Lady.
Her presence ( like Nipuns) moved me deeply. I share this post specifically for all the young women who want to fly a path lesser known against the tide of things.
Surrounded by wildlife enthusiasts, Aamina began her journey with the little helicopters that whiz by us, which we sometimes call the dragonflies. Captivated and intrigued by their exquisite hues and patterns of behaviour. It was dragonflies and damselflies that first introduced her to the realm of animals.
In her own words ‘These tiny little marvels all around me continue to give me the drive and inspiration to be outside. I get to visit the forest practically every day because I work as a naturalist at Forsyth Lodge. To be honest, there are many days when I don’t feel well emotionally, but once I enter the jungle, I have no idea how I manage to forget all of my problems. every day is like playing an intellectual game.I can’t even begin to express how much the jungle gives me in terms of adrenaline rush. That, I believe, is what inspires me each day.
Sometimes, even after pushing myself, I still feel like I’m falling behind in this competitive world. Despite my happiness in this line of work, society does not yet view it as a legitimate profession. I’m not sure why more people don’t think this job is on par with any other in India. People still want their children to work as engineers or doctors. As a female naturalist in this field, I have encountered numerous challenges both before and after joining and even my family was unable to accept this at all. This is the most most challenging career I’ve had chosen, so I believe I need to work even harder to prove to them that I made the right decision.luckily satpura national park is such an amazing place where even the jungle has lady guides and drivers . In the jungle, every lady is treated equally like the other men. They treat us with such incredible respect and consideration. I’m overjoyed that I choose to work in Satpura as my first central Indian park.”

This most joyous video is my friend Val’s childhood in Ukraine (@plot.pointart)
Beautifully cut by her partner @shanawaz421
Hearts lifts up seeing this in light of everything that is going on.
Hugs to you Val for having the courage to withstand this, to keep making your art so you can support and bring cheer to your family in Ukraine. You are a MIGHTY woman and the cutest kid.
A tear, a laugh for a Paradise Lost somewhere and a childhood remembered.
Read her words below.

In 1991, Ukraine gained independence. There was a sense of freedom and hope among the people after years of Soviet oppression. This sense of freedom inspired us then and has united us now in the face of Russian aggression since 2014.
This project aims to preserve memories of simple moments of life in Ukraine.#freeukraine #ukraine
