I saw a video on youtube which was put by your students of SMITALAY where you are the director. It was about a surprise they had planned for your birthday on carter road in Mumbai. The entire cohort, on your arrival, wished you happy birthday with the help of choreographed Odissi dance steps! That was amazing! My question stems out from the very act of love showered towards you through the dance poses.

Do these poses signify anything specific? Which is your favourite pose and why? ● How would you explain Odissi dancing to a commoner who loosely thinks that Bharatnatyam and Odissi are same! And its classic dancing at the end of the day What was the origin of this dance form? ● Odissi is claimed to be the earliest classical dance based on archaeological evidence. What has changed from then till now? Were there any additions, tweaks to the dance form over the years which has been practised across generations?

You played with Sivamani, Amit Kilam (Indian Ocean), Taufiq, Qureshi, Raghu Dixit, Dhruv Ghanekar (Coke studio), Derek Julian, and the list goes on. Which is the closest to your heart? Why? ● How do you define Taal Inc. to someone who is new? Your narrative - come, drum, be one - what is it? And could you please define Taal using that narrative. ● We had a discussion about how people always have a fascination about any art form specifically musical forms like drumming, rhythm, guitar. We almost always attach the superiority complex to music art form.

It has therapeutic values engraved with it. How is it connected to drumming and do you get people who come to you and say, "I'm depressed or stressed".

About Jayesh Sachdev: He is the Creative Director of Quirk Box Design a contemporary Graphic Design and Branding Agency and his Fashion label has showcased at 7 Seasons at Lakme Fashion Week and Won the Grazia Awards and Vogue India Fashion Fund. Multi-award winner, British Council Young Arts Entrepreneurs India 2008, Tiger Translate India Arts Awards and Crow Bar Asia Advertising Awards, he is a multi TEDx speaker and often lectures at Design Schools. Jayesh graduated with a Degree in Visual Communication at Lasalle College of the Arts, Singapore. Some of the questions that we cover in our chat with Jayesh include: ● One definition of fine art is “a visual art considered to have been created primarily for aesthetic and intellectual purpose and judged for its beauty and meaningfulness. Then there is also decorative and applied art like pottery and some form of metal work. Performing arts which include theatre and dance. Where does quirk box as a whole fit in? (talking more about art as fashion here) ● Say this is an amalgamation of all of the above, which one is more defining for your work. Can you elaborate a bit with an example for our listeners? Specifically female nudity! ● Why haven’t you looked at male nudity from the creative lens? Maybe there is a story to tell. ● Quirk box is an award-winning and renowned for it's unique and never seen before designs. So I want to know more about the thought process of Jayesh here. I have picked two examples and I want you to elaborate on how you get started with an idea and everything in between. First is say an Enchanted garden fabric suit which was dawned by Mithila or an athleisure Tokyo fabric dawned by Shreya Pilgaonkar. And secondly, your famous Limca record holding canvas which you drew with Fiat 500 tyres. ● When we talk about art, you will agree that there is a disconnect. The common man doesn't resonate with art much. Mostly the uppers sections of the society vouch for it. What do you think is the reason? Is it money or understanding and awareness of fashion and art in itself? ● You got art out of the canvas and on to the fabric. So your work is not confined to an art gallery. People wear them. Do you feel that you have potentially done enough when it comes to the unique union of art and fashion? Is there quirk box 2.0? Your next challenging endeavour? ● I have seen some mind-blowing graphic designs on your Instagram page. I guess they were designed by your wife Priyanka. Where did you meet her? Shed some light on how it all happened. ● With the body of work behind you, big brands must be approaching your design studio to help them create a unique brand value just like yours. That way within a short stint of around 1 year you have worked with Maruti Suzuki, Bajaj, Vans etc. Which one was your most challenging work for the studio as well as the fashion label? Why? ● From wanting to become a poet, a writer, sportsman, to your designs getting rejected at your first job to the long walk which made you change your mind from Fine art to communication design for majors The journey has been full of ups and downs. Which was the most defining moment or moments, the mug and bucket moments as we call it which made you who you are today? Visit us at http://www.themugandbucket.com for more info!

● How would you define cinematography to a layman? So now since you have answered that, what according to you best defines cinematography? An art or a Craft? And why? ● You have done more than 1000 very successful commercials for tops brands coca-cola, UTV, Fevicol to name a few and also won a National award for a movie that won hearts across generations, SWADES. Which particular movie or an advertisement for you stand out through the scope of cinematography, and why do you say that? ● Having seen the movie production from close quarters I know there is a lot of technicalities which go into cinematography, the main thing being light, colours, shoot location and camera angles etc. Light is like food for any cinematographer! How important is the director's vision on all this? Who according to you is the master behind how a particular scene looks on screen? Director or Cinematographer? ● Now being a national award winner for the highly successful and critically acclaimed movie Swades, why was there no big brands or movies to follow? Was the industry saying, “now that he has won a national award, Mahesh Aney will charge more” or was it a conscious decision not to take big banner movies or something more than what meets the eye! ● I have seen all the successful Marathi movies you have worked on recently, Pitruroon, Dashakriya and Pushpak Viman, was it a conscious decision to move into Marathi cinema? Or they just came your way? ● Tell us the difference of working for a Marathi cinema, Hindi cinema and the recent booming web series space from a technician or cinematography point of view. You have done all three! And the maddest moment in your career! ● You have had an illustrious career in Indian cinema and your contribution is unparalleled. Now dating back, please shed some light on those moments when the actual seed was sown, which altered the course of your life. The mug and bucket moment, which defined who you are today!

Some of the questions that we cover in our chat with Aniruddha Patil include: ● Aniruddha Patil wanted to invest his time in film reviews and was also planning to make a community for the same post his MBA. What was this all about? ● It is known that novel businesses happen only once! But PEO is an exception. PEO was built twice. So tell us where was it earlier and how did you manage to build it again? ● So I know that you met your wife on PEO, on a lighter note, did meeting happen on the first attempt on Orkut or the second one on Facebook? ● Do you think eating out nowadays is more transactional in nature rather than being an experience? People want consistency but forget that preparing food is aa s human is it gets. And if that consistency is missed, negative reviews take the centre stage! ● You have travelled India on wheels. One such instance is that you went to a remote place on India Pakistan border just to have samosas. So food is central to all your trips. Also, your culinary tastings of late are known to many. How do you manage your health in terms of diet and exercise? Do you exercise and what is your Favourite exercise? ● How is the restaurant market in India today? I ask this because of there a lot of people who are quitting their mainstream jobs and opening swanky and theme restaurants but hardly sustain beyond a point.

It wasn’t easy for him to help so many people and so he started educating them. After all, getting fit isn’t exactly rocket science! Around 2015, he and his few colleagues created a Facebook group and started addressing people’s queries around fitness and nutrition! It soon became a thriving community where people would learn, discuss, share, motivate others about adopting a healthy lifestyle! They realized that a lot of people, despite getting all the help, simply didn’t have time to read and implement/experiment and they wanted someone to guide them in a more personal & accountable manner and that’s when the idea of creating an online coaching platform struck JC. He shared this idea with a select few who he met online through SQUATS group and they loved it.
