Reluctant Residents of Chandni Chowk


It’s not easy to take photos of the people in Chandni Chowk. According to my guide, the residents there are mostly Muslims and due to some sensitive issues, don’t like to be photographed. And he was right. I had rotten fruits thrown at me for taking the little girl’s picture – can you believe that? Another elderly woman hurled expletives when I pointed my camera at her. So to avoid detection, I took these photos with my zoom lens.
