From the time I came to Dubai for the first time in 1994, it has been a part of my growing up and also been a witness and catalyst to my artistic and professional journey. I have enormous respect for the Ruling family of Dubai for it is only because of their commitment to their people that Dubai has seen the kind of progress not a single country in the world can claim of in such a short span. Being given a Golden Visa for my favourite place, is nothing less than a beautiful honour to me. I look forward to contribute whatever I can to my best capacity to Dubai and it’s people.
