Framed in : These photos were a part of a photo Series titled “India 2020”! “Today’s children are tomorrow’s citizens.” Courtesy… Jawahar Lal Nehru! To achieve the vision of our former president Dr.A.P.J.Abdul Kalam, children have to be prepared from today itself. India, with its vast and rich resources, can definitely become the world’s major power. It’s just that the energy and hard works has to be directed in to the right direction! So, today’s children who are tomorrow’s citizen has to be given a proper vision and guidance to lead India to new horizons. Let us prepare for that!
Framed out: When the topic was given as India 2020, I was in a dilemma… what to shoot? I could think of nothing else other than Dr.Abdul Kalam’s Dream and vision. So, I came out with this concept of preparing the children for 2020. And I must thank my class mates Rajma and Varna who helped me to find a place to shoot those little sweet pies! But, to be honest, this was the toughest assignment I have ever attempted! It was not that easy as you see in the picture! To make them sit in one place and make them hear me was too tough. I wonder how they direct kids in movies. And this might be the reason why films with children gain more popularity internationally! But they were adorable and sweet! This was an awesome experience for me as a photographer! And more over this concept has gained recognition widely.
Grey Frames: “A developed India by 2020, or even earlier, is not a dream. It need not be a mere vision in the minds of many Indians. It is a mission we can all take up – and succeed.” – A P J Abdul Kalam.
