| Gautam Rajyadhyaksha , Indian Photographer
| |
| A glamour photographer from Maharashtra, of the maharashtrian Saraswat Brahmin family is a famous veteran photographer. This writer by profession has clicked over 200 film personalities in his career of 17 years. Rajadhyaksha turned photographer when he could not get a photographer on Sundays to click stars that he interviewed for Celebrity magazine. Actresses Shabana Azmi and Shobha De encouraged him to take up photography. His pictures were very famous during that time and even today stars like Kajol is considered his discovery more than that of director Rahul Rawail. Besides, he has also snapped such senior actors like Durga Khote. In 1989, Asha Bhosle set up an exhibition for Rajyadhyaksha in Pune. It was with a great deal of concern that he went ahead with it. The exhibition`s success gave him some confidence.
He has put all his pictures together in a book called `Faces`. The book with pictures of the biggest names in Bollywood has been spliced together with anecdotes, describing what happened when photographing them or while just chatting with them. He has chosen just 75 of the 200 stars he has clicked. Only because those photographs signify something to him and the person he has clicked.
