“If you want something from an audience, you give blood to their fantasies.
It’s the ultimate hustle.”
(Marlon Brando – American actor, 1924-2004)

This is a portrait of Bollywood actor, anchor and dancer, Hussain Kuwajerwala shot in his green room after a performance on stage.

Hussain is a popular TV star who is acting the leading role of the first-ever Bollywood musical, “Zangoora, The Gypsy Prince” at Kingdom of Dreams since 2010.

Recently we have been working together and it was amazing to see how much Hussain is giving to the audience.
His performance requires an incredible physical effort and concentration which he carries with a high professionalism.
In many ways his work reminds of Marlon Brando’s early movies.

My friend Carmen Arbues Miro is the amazing make-up artist of “1789 : Les Amants de la Bastille”.
Her stage makeup work is well-known worldwide, she is in charge of superproductions in Las Vegas, Macao and Paris and many movie stars won’t allow any camera to shoot before she spends a moment with them…
I always loved to work with Carmen, her magic fingers can do anything.
She always brought a positive energy during the fashion shows and fashion shoots we used to do…
