His YouTube channel is called: Kalyan Karmakar and he is the co-wner of the channe: The Finely Chopped. He conducts personalised food walks in Mumbai where he introduces the city to participants through the dishes of his favourite food haunts.

To unwind he heads to the kitchen where he loves to play with ingredients and his mantra is hassle-free, gut feel-based cooking.

Kalyan is a Bengali who now lives in Mumbai with his wife, who is a Parsi from Mumbai. He moved in here close to two decades back from Kolkata after spending his early years in Iran and the UK.

When asked what she feels about her introducing him to blogging, Kalyan’s wife Kainaz says "I have forgotten the taste of hot food thanks to his photographing everything on the table before we can eat it".
