I am a professional attention seeker and a licenced story teller. I do whatever it takes to stay in the limelight from acting in dodgy films, encouraging presidents to reveal their darkest secrets on my TV talk show, globetrotting so I can write about it in glossy magazines, convincing the Japanese government to hire me as a tourism ambassador and lately, going behind the camera to tell the stories that I want to hear.
Although, in actuality I live with the characters I create, Paris is home for now. Wherever I may be based, I’m happiest creating, curating and developing content that will make India and Indians authentically visible.
Living up to my namesake I speak and share my joy and irritation publicly at every opportunity I can. I love the attention, the press loves the content – it’s a win win.

THIS & THAT
Why do one thing when you can do 10? Some may call me ‘Jill of many trades’ but in the end they’re only different means and mediums i’m telling stories. There’s nothing better than a good story.
I much prefer the moving camera, but there’s a story, memory, milestone and emotion behind every still picture. Glimpse the exclusive visual journey of my mugshots and if you’re nice, I might even tell you the secrets behind the image.
