2 Profile: I have done my primary research in the field of adaptation studies with special focus on film adaptations of the novels written by Ruth Prawer Jhabvala. During my research I have tried to understand how the narrative changes during the process of adaptation. I am also interested in exploring further dimensions of the relationship between literature and cinema. Currently, I am doing a project on Shyam Benegal s cinema in which I am trying to understand how Shyam Benegal, as a filmmaker, has responded to issues of India in post-colonial times. The attempt is to study the image of India emerging in his cinema. Besides, I am a translator. I have translated two books of Hindi poetry into English. Presently, I am translating Punjabi poetry into English. Publications BOOKS Research Work: Fiction to Film: Ruth Prawer Jhabvala's The Householder and Heat and Dust. Orient BlackSwan, India, Translation: Sun and Silence (Translation of Hindi Poetry into English). Unistar Books Pvt. Ltd., Chandigarh, The Dawn Shall Break (Translation of Hindi Poetry into English). Sri Sahitya Prakashan, Amritsar, 2014.
