Kunal Kapoor


He has d gals swooning over him with his choclaty boy looks...n has a great overall personality too.But i chose this RDB lad for neither.I chose him coz in this particular picture of his thers a shade of darkness both in his expression and the picture.You can very well imagine hes some kind of exiled prince out to get revenge.Doing the hair was pleasurable as always but the eyes were not as accurate because the picture was a bit too dark.Finally in this picture the lips have come out to my satisfaction but still theres a lot of room for improvement.N the scanned pic isnt as half as good as the original...much of the detail is missing...lets c if i can get a better scan.

Shah Rukh Khan...again!!


Frankly speaking i never intented to do SRKs sketch again but in this pic he was looking so damn handsome...the way his hair is flowing captured my intrest and that faint smile across his face captivated me and i knew i just have to draw this one.The hair,eyes and eyebrows have been rendered to a good extent.I did the lips well too but i personally feel i could have done more justice.From here onward i tried to potray the subject's emotions.In this particular sketch u can make out that trademar smirk of SRK...but still i gotta work on those lips!!!!Another intresting fact about this sketch is that i drew it almost after a year i drew AB junior...long break and i never drew a sketch during this period.

Abhishek Bacchan


Though I dont like him much...rather thats an understatement!!I HATE HIM...but still he had gals swooning over him so i thot to take him up as my much subject.There was nothing to lose...if he wudnt have turned out well I could have simply blamed on his features...haha!!(gals please dont mind)..but surspizingly his was the most enjoyable till date because of many reasons..Firstly I took to sketching after a good 3 months,secondly i drew it on the normal drawing sheet(d white color of the ppr itself was so intoxicating...ull feel it f u have done much sketching on dat yellow sketch book pprs!!),thirdly i luvd doing his hair n his detailed beard(notice the small strands of hair poking out in the chin region)...though the lips as in all my previous sketches didnt come out as it should have...its still the sketch I think made me confident that im imroving...wat say u??

Saif Ali Khan


This was published in some edition of Filmfare...Saif Ali Khan is gr8 in potraying wicked notiness,at thesame time puting up that dumb look on his face.Here also something about this pic caught my attention...the same naughtiness...as if hes planning a tumultous prank!Its the last time i drew on my shitty sketchbook...man!!I could have done more justice with the eyes.But nonetheless I learned that i should smudged my strokes...hes looking suntanned actually!I got the hair good to a great extent.In this particular sketch I ddnt shade as much but still got some decent results.

Shah Rukh Khan



Now wat can I say about this guy??Hes the king Khan allright.In this potrait i tried to work on the hair cz eariler in my drawings the subjects hair was the same tone as the rest of the face...so i thot i wasnt looking good.Well here for the first time I used a charcoal and it was a disaster!!while working up the hair I have messed up the face but still im putting it up here coz each sketch is special for me and a unique learning experience..N ya charcoal had a terrible effect on those drawing sheets...i should have used better paper for good results.

Pierce Brosnan


This one is one of omega ads...The names Brosnan..Pierce Brosnan.He has loads of style,is classy n way suave...I used 2B n HB pencils n a hint of 4B f those darker areas.The sketch has lost its effect cz it was done on a sketch book and eventually the lead smudges out..but personally i think that dis is my best job in terms f shading.

Rahul Gandhi


My first potrait...Rahul Gandhi.I chose him just by pure chance.He is dynamic and represents the youth.While at My taijis place I saw dis pic of his on INDIA TODAY's cover.Though it may look that he is angry or agitated but actually hes standing in the sun so his expressions are like that...Due to lack of shading pencils the entire work is done with HB pencil.Ya but i gotta admit its not that gr8...or is it for a frst timer??
