| Roobaniyat- An escapade:Photographer-Shubham Lodha.Director-Abhinav krishnan |
This image was taken for my theatre production Roobaniyat in
2012.The photograph was taken by Shubham Lodha. The character on the extreme
right was played by me.
The most descriptive element of this image is its simplicity.
It is a combination of three images taken at different times in one room. The
characters showcased in this image come to life instantly. The black and white
tone along with the sunlight promotes the composition and unity of the images,
even though taken at different times, they are harmonious. The image represents
three different human beings in the crowd of people we see every day. What
stands out of the clutter is how these people are different, how each of their
expression tells a different story. The greyscale represents different emotions
of these three individuals in unison. Conviction, thought and anger are the
prime emotions that are brought out in this photograph. If one wishes to
question each element of the image one may find answers to unasked questions;
that is the level of depth of this image. A photograph can truly be understood
if the mood of the photographer is understood, all other interpretations are
bound by one’s own spectrum of knowledge. Each frame is a story in itself and what
that story in reality is, can only be understood by understanding the
photographer as the photograph is his sketch.
They are the architect, the influenced and the motivated.
Some great times doing some great plays with a few very great people.
