It has been a long time since it all started, the mess we are into now, Each one of us okay.. if you think you are not being called out then you will be soon. The people standing in front of tricolor (Indian flag's saffron, white and green) are telling us of what we have become overtime. It's easy fr people to consider my sanity into insanity and my right to wrong but at least I am true to myself and so they are those who are sitting in foreground too. It is Jantar Mantar, a place where people can protest and against whom they are protesting they really do not give a shit about them. As a photographer I was there to cover it and observe what is going on but I cannot just be a photographer out there and shoot with maintaining balance in between my sensitivity and composition. I am still learning how our mentors do that!! I chanted slogan I tried to be with them and submerged myself into it but as soon as was getting deep I was pulled by the feeling pity over this whole thing. Somebody said these protest are also a way for people to establish themselves which indeed it is, they take advantages of protests too. The reason why I go when I really have a feel to go. Not for the sake of shooting but for the sake of being there as an individual as that's the least I can do. The last protest which hurt me was farmers protest in Delhi .. I won't say much about it as that's a different story. Also I don't know about these gatherings impact and I think the day when it will become a selfless effort from the people living on this planet we definitely gonna win else वही लोग आएंगे, वही बातें बोलेंगे, सोशल मीडिया पर दिखावा करेंगे, और कहेंगे हम लाल हैं, हम काला हैं, हम आपके तारणहार हैं। लेकिन पिसना फिर भी ग़रीब को ही है। |
