Aasmaan — open skies

Inspired by Indian miniature paintings, this short film follows a woman gazing from her jharoka (window) over a palatial garden, drawn to colorful kites in the sky. Though she seems lonely and trapped, the kites signify freedom and spirit — representing her aspirations as she sets the kite free.

The film explores and interprets the qualities of traditional 2D Indian miniature painting in a 3D medium, retaining the visual expression to evoke a similar mood in animation.

Jaadoo

A compositing project where a computer-generated toy plane — complete with shadows, reflection, and refraction — is placed into a real environment photographed with a digital SLR. The CG set was built in Maya to match the camera angle, shadow color, and lighting of the original scene.
