We’re QUROST, a production agency based in an apple orchard in the Shimla hills. Founded by photographer and filmmaker Himanshu Khagta, we make ads, commercial films and photography, and build useful solutions for brands.
Remote roads. Extreme weather. Real lives. The Himalayas shape how we see, and how we tell a story. Our products extend that creative practice into tools for communication, café operations and learning.
