After four successful episodes of the online talk
show, Zindagi Aapki Hai, Celebrity Motivational speaker ‘Naina More’ invited
ace celebrity photographer ‘Dabboo Ratnani’ as a guest for her fifth episode.
In the intriguing episode, the duo went back to the time when photography
wasn’t considered an actual profession in India and people won’t look at it in
a big way.
After twenty-five successful years of working
with top Bollywood celebrities, Dabboo opens up about how he started off his
career in photography. He says, “Back then, photography wasn’t considered as an
actual profession! People used to talk about doctors, lawyers, and engineers.
But luckily my parents were quite supportive. My parents saw my passion.”
When Naina asked Dabboo what his success mantra
is, he said “Well, if you have the fire, and the energy to prove yourself again
and again. Your vision is the most important! As long as you work behind the
quality of your thought, you’ll always get work.”
In a fun rapid fire round on the show called
Speed-o-meter, Naina asked Dabboo some interesting questions that revealed
interesting insights into the core characters of A-list celebrities.
Interestingly, Naina asked the photographer which traits he’d like to pick from
the celebrities he worked with. When asked about Akshay Kumar, Dabboo was quick
to say, that it’s his professionalism and punctuality that he likes. For Alia
Bhatt, it’s her sweetness that Dabbo adores, Ranveer SIngh’s mad energy and
dressing sense, Hrithik Roshan’s charm, Sharukh Khan’s intelligence, Rekha’s
aura, Katrina’s eye for details, and Kiara Advani’s genuineness and
warmth.
Naina and Dabboo’s conversation around
photography, and life in general seemed to inspire several photography lovers,
and both of their fans, and the duo signed off with a big ear-to-ear smile. As
always, Naina’s celebrity guests are something her fans look forward to
excitingly every Saturday. The celebrity next in row will be ace author,
‘Chetan Baghat’, who’ll be going live with Naina on her official Instagram
handle, @nainamoreofficial at 7 p.m. this Saturday 26 September.
