Home Actor Arjun Kamath HD Instagram Photos and Wallpapers February 2021 Arjun Kamath Instagram - I made this portrait of Shri Kishan Ghanshyam Chauhan, a 35-year old worker, a couple of weeks ago near Aurangabad in Maharashtra. It was nearly dusk and I was on my way back from Paithan to Aurangabad when I saw a cluster of men gathered around a factory in their respective bullock carts. At first, I thought of just letting it be since I was already headed for my destination. However, an eccentric gathering such as this got the better of my interest, so I decided to stop the car and explore. As I was walking amidst the group, where men clad in all-whites were loading and unloading piles of sugarcane from their carts, I stumbled upon Kishan. The only one in a somewhat coloured attire, his gripping eyes gained my attention and I approached him to figure out the commotion. He told me that workers & farmers of the area make this trip to the factory about 4 to 5 months a year, where they stand in a queue waiting for their turn to deliver sugarcane. I was surprised to find that this task sometimes goes on all night, and was moved when Kishan mentioned that he has been doing this for 17 years. After our brief conversation, the chap continued his work & I stepped back to take a picture of him. As Kishan toiled to provide food for his family of three, I could see the sky slowly turning dark & making way for the night. Delicate smoke floated from the factory just behind him, where the sugarcane he was unloading would likely end up in a couple of days. What I treasure in this photograph is how the fading sunlight complements the mood of the picture, depicting the effort that these workers put on a daily basis. And the fact that I caught Kishan’s stern gaze in a genuine moment while he was engrossed in work, which helped me translate his story for what it is. Finally, this turned out to be one of those cinematic evenings where a portrait was made because I felt like I needed to stop. I listened to my heart and it led me to meet with this gentleman, who was kind to explain his work, and through it, give me a glimpse into his life as well as a story I will remember for years to come. #CapturedOnCanon with a Canon EOS 5D Mark IV & a 24-70mm F/2.8 #SPiCollective

Arjun Kamath Instagram – I was recently in Aurangabad with mum and dad, where we made the unmissable trip to the marvellous caves of Ellora. A cluster of 34 caves dedicated to several religions and showcasing different architectural styles, the place was an enigma that unfurled slowly. This particular picture is of Cave 10, a majestic Buddhist monastery cum cathedral that left me awestruck in a single gaze.

It was a sunny afternoon and I was walking around in admiration of the archaic beauty all around me, when I came across this stunning facade. Instantly, I froze at the splendour of it all, and it didn’t take me two seconds to find the perfect frame that I wanted to shoot. Knowing that my parents had already ventured inside the cave, I decided to sit down on the damp ground without any care in the world. I was curiously waiting for them to wander into the balcony at some point, all set to freeze the moment. 

As soon as my father stepped in, I waited for the tourists to move away and requested him to walk to the edge of the balcony. Watching him stand there wearing a contrasting blue against the rustic brown cave, I felt like a child who had been surprised with candy and thus couldn’t hold his excitement. Dad lingered there for a while and then carried on since it was sweltering hot. But it was time enough for me to get the shot, almost as if my muscle memory had taken over, scouting the perfect composition and then clicking the shutter button on my camera. 

And although I rarely share wide shots of my travel stories, my eyes are accustomed to see the world in terms of stories and enticing frames. So, whenever I see one, I can’t help but take a photograph. This time around, the moment was all the more special, since I had the pleasure of having someone from my family grace the frame, adding a personal connection to it.

Arjun Kamath Instagram – Super glad that my entry ‘Holding On…’ was awarded an Honourable Mention (Portrait, Professional) at the Monochrome Awards 2020.

The story behind the image: 
I made this image of Robert Weiner, a Los Angeles based actor, in his studio apartment in Chula Vista, LA. Often the images that appeal to me the most as a storyteller originate from the simpler, everyday moments of life. Robert sits on the bed, lost in his thoughts, accompanied by his cup of coffee and pet cat on an overcast LA morning. Shot in the city where golden dreams brew, the picture brushes the thought that LA is vibrant, but at the same time, it can also make one feel left out in an instant with its fast-paced life. Resonating with this idea, I envisioned the photograph in black and white, as the frame confirms a personal belief. That in the end, we are all alone in fighting our own battles, one day at a time. This photograph is hence all barebones, visually conveying the philosophy of life through powerful emotions and a simple story, both enhanced by the deprivation of colours. In the viewer, it also enlivens the familiar reality of old age and the challenges it brings. And while old does not mean different, things slow down for sure. Thus, in the picture, the cat leaving the frame contrasts with the evident stillness of the old gentleman. It also metaphorically conveys that he will soon be alone, adding another flavourful layer to the image.
