Enjoying this new film by @kunalkohli we are filming in London. Such a pleasure working with @iambobbydeol . Gentle, warm, thoughtful. Super weather, chilled co-actors, what’s not to like.
You’re going to kill me for posting this image. But it’s your birthday and you absolutely cannot lose your temper for the next 24 hours. So much is different in reality today compared to this image : in the photograph you are smiling and looking contented, you have significantly upped your fashion game since, and you don’t look that unhappy standing next to me. Happy birthday, @anubose189 . You are the Queen of Cool. The Sultana of Sarcasm. Her Imperial Majesty of Irritability. The Countess of Comedy. The Goddess of Generosity. I consider it a matter of immeasurable pride to walk in your shadow. I love you. #happybirthday
Wrapped my 5th film in 11 months. This one was as pleasurable as all the others. The icing on the cake(!) was the weather – cold, crisp, clear. I consider it the greatest good fortune of my life to spend it doing what I love. May this good fortune be visited on all who have a dream. Thank you @kunalkohli for your faith. Good night and good luck.
Your love for books, terracotta sculpture, mahjong, Urdu poetry and wild flowers. Today you would have been the coolest octogenarian around. #kumudthoratbose #inmemorium #ma
Precisely two years ago, amidst the confusion and despair of the pandemic’s first wave, #Bullbul released on @netflix_in My first double role and some of the most precarious though satisfying work I have ever been given to do. Thank you @anvita_dee @kans26 @anushkasharma @an5hai and everybody @officialcsfilms

Was deep in the belly of a new film during Father’s Day, ergo…. Like all children it’s only when you look back that you realise your parents were pretty cool. As were the times, Baba was the breadwinner, but he also shopped for everything in the kitchen, was equally skilled at making crumb fried prawn cutlets as he was at making mutton chaanp, the smell of which would have us pleading an hour before it was ready. He spent relatively astonishing amounts of money on encyclopaedia for his kids (which we passed over for the latest Madonna CD liner notes), drove me to cricket matches two cracks after dawn, fed us with his hands till we were ridiculously old (think braces and bicycles), and told us tales of mischief from his childhood of forests and bridges. But most of all I remember him letting us sleep past the alarm, then lightly massaging us every morning so we would not wake but slowly unfurl, and slide uncomplainingly into a new school day. @anubose189
On location outside London. Filming at an airfield and I saw this machine tucked away in a corner. #flightsoffancy
Had a superb, authentically cooked meal (momos, Tangra prawns, chingri maacher malai curry…) at @darjeelingldn and met the incredible team in the kitchen – Asha, Gauri and others. All of them led with love and affection by @asmakhanlondon . Asma, thank you for your food, your stories and your warmth. And yes, I haven’t forgotten about my promise – have already spoken to my friends in Kolkata to cook maacher kaalia for you! Let me know when you land on these shores. Cheers and thank you once again!
Amritsar this evening. Delivered a talk on the three harshest lessons I have faced and learnt from, in my life. Here I state the obvious : which path allows you to sleep peacefully at night – living for the approval of others or living in a way that you respect yourself. #livelifeauthentictowhoyouare
If you’ve watched any of my reels you’ve pretty much figured I’m a sucker for pools. But this one @transstadia ‘s wonderful complex in Ahmedabad is special because it overlooks their superb ground and stadium where the #NationalGames rugby competition is going to be held from the 28th to the 30th of September. #EkaArena Talk about the #bestofbothworlds 👍🏾💪🏾 @rugbyindia
Spent two long stretches in #London this year. The weather’s been uncommonly brilliant and in between filming, I resumed running after a long (injury related) hiatus. This on my last day, round and round the #RoundPond #HydePark
Back in London to shoot my 5th film in 10 months. Best way to shake off a long flight – two hours in #HydePark on a cold, clear, crisp day. Ready for battle! #londonlife
Early morning 360 degree view of #Pondicherry. The suite’s called Bridge to Heaven. There are worse ways to start a shoot day. To the folks @lavillapondicherry many thanks for the hospitality #newfilmnewcitynewdigs
Immensely proud to have launched the #mentalhealth vertical @rugbyindia with the U20 Girls and Boys squad at the #NationalCamp in #Bhubaneshwar To all rugby players in the country – onward and upward!
In #Ahmedabad to meet the teams before the rugby tournament at the #NationalGames . Two hour walk / jog along the riverfront.

Starting my fourth film in five months. #Pondicherry #makingupforthepandemic (Bonus prize for those who can identify the bird call at the end of the clip).
Evidently the patisserie department at the @tajcoromandel have eclectic cinematic taste! I haven’t ever seen ‘Fired’ and ‘REKKA’ adorning my
welcome platters in any hotel before. And while I am it, thank you to all @tajcoromandel for the care and the peace of mind. You cannot know how desperately needed it was. 🙏🏾
What’s your Saturday night like? @tajcoromandel #warmup #HelloChennai
Thank you for the warmth, the water and the wonderful food. @lavillapondicherry
1. How to wake up after an all night shoot.
2. Reckon a bit of panic on the sun screen situation?

From one of the finest, most creative ensemble of voices you will hear. Led by one of the warmest, most talented people I had the pleasure of knowing, Neil Nongkynrih (may his soul rest in peace). Here is #TheGreatIndianTrainJourney @shillongchamberchoir
