Trek The Himalayas - Uttarakhand, India
I undertook a client project for Trek The Himalayas, India's largest trekking organization. The brief entailed shooting two advertisement documentaries showcasing the experience of high-altitude treks in Uttarakhand's Himalayan region, specifically the Pindari Glacier and Pangarchulla Peak treks. Over seven days, I hiked each trek, capturing the journey alongside visitors, culminating in a film produced at the end of each trek. The post-trek editing process was a tight five-day turnaround. I handled all aspects of production - audio, interviews, filming, editing, graphics, voice-over, and more. As of 2023, both videos have garnered approximately 200k+ views on the client's YouTube channel.
Title: Pangarchulla Peak Trek
Pangarchulla Peak Trek at an altitude of 15,069 ft (4600+ m) offers the opportunity to Walk on the famous Lord Curzon trail. A daunting summit ridge follows that will blow your mind. The trek also reaches the popular Winter Kuari Pass apart from the mesmerizing views on the trek.

Title: Pindari Glacier, a forgotten legendary trek
The Pindari glacier trek is a forgotten trek that has not lost its charm. With numerous waterfalls, rhododendrons-laden paths, typical kumaoni homestays, crossing moraines, hard snow, and finally the closest view of Pindari glacier, the trek has enough to offer. An interesting fact about the trek is that an Indian monk resides next to the glacier. He has been living the nomad life for years. With so many unique elements in the Pindari Glacier trek, it has no reason to be forgotten!
