Behind The Indian Veil chronicles award-winning photographer Sephi Bergerson’s extraordinary journey through uncharted wedding traditions in India. It reveals the differences and similarities in Indian wedding traditions, while seeking the common essence of this grand, colourful, fantastic celebration.
After living in India for more than 17 years, almost seven of which spent working on this book project, Sephi has experienced, witnessed and documented a huge variety of Indian weddings. As he traveled the length and breadth of India, he was invited into sacred places and intimate moments normally inaccessible to outsiders, witnessing traditions buried so deep in the subconscious of the subcontinent that even people from India don’t necessarily know about them. This incredible array of stories he was able to capture reveals cultures, traditions, and legacies as complex and diverse as India herself.
Behind The Indian Veil brings images and stories from a vast assortment of Indian communities: Tamil Brahmin, Bengali, Sikh, Hindu Punjabi, Hyderabadi Muslim, Rajput, Kashmiri Pandit, Ladakhi Buddhist, Goan Catholic, Syrian Christian, Zoroastrian Parsi, Dawoodi Bhora, and Kodava Coorg.

On February 2nd 2002, four bags in hand and only $14,000 in his account, Israeli born photographer Sephi Bergerson boarded a one-way flight to India with his young wife and their 10-months old baby girl, with no intention of ever going back. No one was waiting for them when they landed. No job or accommodation was arranged. The only person they knew in Delhi was the shopkeeper who had sold them the wedding Saree three years earlier. It was the bravest and stupidest thing they have ever done, but it worked out.
