I often travel to rural and tribal areas for photography, immersing myself in their life and realities. Over the years, I’ve come to understand their struggles and joys. Inspired by this connection, I make it a point every year to help a few underprivileged villages by distributing new clothes during Durga Puja.
Durga Puja is the most important festival in our culture, a time when everyone buys new clothes to celebrate. It fills my heart with pride and happiness to see people from different walks of life joining me in this initiative to bring smiles to these communities.
This act of kindness and the joy it brings is the real satisfaction of photography for me—a blend of art, humanity, and purpose.
