Amary Athvi Malad Malwani 2011, a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.

Due to personal reasons I have stopped shooting Moharam in Mumbai..

I only shoot Moharam in other cities and show the angst of the Shia community and Ghame Hussain.

I find the Shias in other cities more hospitable and humble and respectful towards documentarists like me , who shoot pictures as a hobby and passion and not as a means for making money,..

I thought this explanation was important for those in Mumbai who wont see me any more ,,
