It was outskirts of the town filled with dwellings of working class people but it occured to someone there to have a statue for one of the greatest modern tamil poet, Mahakavi Bharati, however modest and haphazardly done with the cement, it was still a wonderful sight.

They love to be photographed. They are quite content to play with simple items like worn out cycle tyres.

She was wearing a man’s long sleeve shirt over her saree, and balanced herself on a moving lorry by holding onto the rails. But her face didn’t show any hardship.

Almost all South Indian temples would have flower and garland shops outside as people always buy them for prayers.
