Pratiksha + Josh

Everything was special about this shoot. There is something about people from the hills, you know. And yes, it was a perfect amalgamation this time -- Goan people and the Nepalese from Darjeeling.

Pratiksha is from the hills, and Josh is from Goa. The story is as beautiful as the people I met during this wedding -- all of them. It might have been luck, or a mere coincidence that Pratiksha and Josh happened to meet each other for a brief interval of just ten minutes while exchanging flights years' ago. Both of them work for Qatar Airways. But little did they know then that the meeting was soon turning into a love story.

Presenting to you, The Darjeeling Express.

This is an interesting shoot that came to me. I was booked for Novembr 29 -- not the date, but the place, which was exciting. Close to home, Runu and Biju were getting married in Guwahati -- place closest to my heart than any other. I was excited. Met Runu a couple of times and got to know their story.

We spoke in leisure over a cup of coffee. She was excited. Quite naturally. She was happy that I was shooting their wedding. Well, this is always a great feeling when somebody makes you feel so invited.

The whole of Novembver was packed. Back-to-back shoot. I was living my life mostly out of a suitcase. I was booked for a Darjeeling shoot just prior to Runu's wedding, which is why I think I took this one. For I knew it's just an overnight journey travelling from Darjeeling to Guwahati. And the good think was, I share a lot of proximity to both the places. So, this trip would also make me meet a lot of people, including my Dad who now lives in Siliguri.

Guwahati wasn't very cold I think, or maybe I didn't feel that way for I had just come from Darjeeling. If I remember correctly it was around 5 degree Celsius out there in the hills. Guwahati was much warmer that way.
