documentary filmmaker
Akanksha is a documentary filmmaker who’s work revolves around the complexities that a city has to offer. She is drawn to questions about identity, urban sociology, erasure, water politics and migration and often tries to address them in her films. As an extension of her work on water in Mumbai, Akanksha also conducts a water walk ‘Tracing the footsteps of water in Mumbai’, which explores the politics of water in the city stemming from its colonial past.
