A photograph freezes a moment and makes it immortal. The feelings and the thoughts are captured forever and it is left upon the viewers to perceive it by their way.
This picture was taken during the “Durga Puja” festival and the beauty of the picture is that every face has a different feeling, emotion and a story to tell.
Stay safe and sound during this crisis situation and hope it will pass soon.
Raksha Bandhan or Rakhi Purnima was celebrated across the country today. It is a bond, a symbol or bond of love between brothers and sisters. Sister ties a string in the hand of her brother and the brother is supposed to take care of his sister. Generally brother would also give a gift to his sister. You can read in more detail about the festival in the link at the beginning.
This Rakhi was special for us and our daughter Pearl, as she celebrated her first Rakhi by tying the band to Samarth. I wanted to share this and also to make you aware of this special religious part of our life which has very high importance and is celebrated with fervour across the nation.
Here are some snaps from the event and I hope you will like it.
