Dhaval Sunil Dhairyawan (19 April 1979 – 22 March 2012)[1] was a lifestyle and automotive photographer from India. He was noted for his photojournalism for The Times Journal of Photography,[2] TopGear India, The Times of India,[3] and Lonely Planet.[4][5][6][7][8]
Mumbai-based Piramal Art Gallery hosted a photo exhibition in his memory under the name, The Dhaval Dhairyawan Retrospective.[9]
Due to his passion for automobiles, he changed the Indian outlook for automotive photography. He did several photoshoots for Top Gear[10] which were never seen in an Indian car magazine before.[11][12]
