The Timeless Theatre

Here you have a whole range of photographs clicked by Kamat and categorised under a wide variety of topics. You can see photographed portraits of Mughal kings, artists and writers.

Mahatma Gandhi Album

The opening page of the site contains a link to an album dedicated to the Mahatma. Here you will find a biography, illustrations and portraits of Gandhi. This section also contains pictures and portraits depicting moments from Gandhi's life. There is also a link called 'ask Gandhi', where you can gain insight into his perceptions and beliefs in a rather interesting manner. You can put forth your questions as if to Gandhi himself, which are later answered in the first person and posted on the site by the author.

Take a trip down memory lane and relive what we've learnt in history books in school.

See pictures of great Indian freedom fighters from Shivaji to Subhash Chandra Bose and Pandit Nehru making the declaration of Independence.

Never been photographed

A very poignant look at the common folk of India. People who have never really been in the limelight but find themselves in the line of fire of a photographers camera while going about their day to day life.
