Introduction	i am a 49 year old artist and photographer living in kolkata. done my schooling from don bosco, liluah, and graduation from jadavpur university. i am a diehard lotus-eater, under achiever and incorrigible lazybones to boot. i am also an original thinker,a poor public speaker, an excellent listener! highly opinionated, i always take sides...and often rub people up the wrong way. fence-sitting makes me sick. my wife suchandra is a teacher. we have a 13 year old son, anok, and a 6 year old dog called mowgli. we have 3 mud cottages, designed by us, in our farm in a village near santiniketan .some years back i used to design and hand- paint one-off furniture. stopped it because the world was not ready for it.
