After pursuing a degree in law, Sukrit Nagaraj turned his hobby for photography into a career. It was about being in the right place at the right time. He was helping Rolling Stone India with their website design, and the photographer who'd shoot local music gigs for them had cancelled. Nagaraj, the self-taught photographer, stepped in. He has trained himself via Youtube tutorials and webinars. Recently, he shot a short film titled Aloof Laila, about finding solace in loneliness, with actor/friend Shaik Afsha. Apart from portrait photography, he also writes and shoots shorts and documentaries. His recent venture Aam Ras Studios sees him play the lucrative part of wedding photographer.
