Book Reviews:
"Nitin - the book is beautiful! The photo reproduction, the photos themselves, the stories, I love it!!! " - Jeffrey Gettleman - The New York Times
"What immediately strikes one in these gorgeous pictures is how Nitin has gained his subjects' trust, making the portraits in this book honest, fascinating, and immensely likeable. For many years, Nitin has wandered India with his camera, recording sympathetic and philosophical interviews with people he comes across in all their variety. To these video interviews is now added this lovely book of portraits, a visual diary of Nitin's wanderings. To enter the book is to travel with him." - Dictynna Hood - writer/director

"Bharat Katha" is a collection of real people's real stories from India. Bharat Katha is a journey to the heart of India, crossing languages, cultures and regional boundaries. These stories are from many sorts of people and focus on their lives, views and beliefs - which have been held together through generations. I'd like to think that I found them, but in truth - most of the time, they are waiting to be discovered and to share their story - The India Story. Bharat Katha is a one-man-band effort who thrives on bringing stories to new audiences through the medium of his photography, films and music. Bharat Katha is created by Nitin Krishen, an Indian born London-based artist known for his vivid and vibrant storytelling that combines his unique perspective and the essence of his eastern and western lives with just a touch of splendid eccentricity.
