25\/100 of#100sareepact moment I dedicate to the memory of 25 April 2015!<\/p>\n
Story-Behind the scene
\nIt was just another day, and I was at home, when my father screamed \u201cThere is an earthquake!! \u201c
\nTo be honest, at that time I did not feel the intensity at all!
\nHowever after following the NEWS, I realized how the final impact was and how the earthquake had hit my nation and affected my neighbouring country, Nepal!<\/p>\n
In the history of mankind, 25 April 2015 will be remembered as one of the worst natural disasters to strike! April 2015 Nepal earthquake (also known as the Gorkha earthquake) killed more than 9,000 people and injured more than 23,000.
\nIt occurred at 11:56 NST on 25 April, with a magnitude of 7.8Mw or 8.1Ms and a maximum Mercalli Intensity of IX (Violent).
\nThe earthquake triggered an avalanche on Mount Everest, killing at least 19, making April 25, 2015 the deadliest day on the mountain in history.
\nThe epicenter was east of the district of Lamjung, and its hypocenter was at a depth of approximately 15 km (9.3 mi).<\/p>\n
Recently a small step was taken, through an event – \u2018I Bow to the Buddha in You\u2019!
\nA group of individuals tried to commemorate those innumerable lives in Nepal who are fighting back in this situation!
\nThis was really a path breaking event- a photography installation and auction, and first of its kind in the City of Joy! We partnered with Oxfam India, and gathered a good amount through photography auction and donor passes.<\/p>\n
Story- About the saree
\nTo witness this wonderful evening, I chose to wear, one of my favourite, tussar silks and paired it with a full sleeve, black, tussar -silk blouse.
\nThe beige and orange combination, with sleek kantha work was an appropriate attire for this kind of evening event with an amazing set-up, lighting, innovative food, live music by pianist and opera singer…
\nMy pearl neck-piece with silver ear ring fit perfectly to the elegant look and feel of the evening.
\nThe dark shade with orange portrayed the perfect blend of darkness and hope of life that flows in human life\u2026.<\/p>\n
I was blessed to participate and be a part of this fundraiser event!
\nI, Bow to the Buddha in those silent heartbeats and memories who have lost their lives; and those bright shining eyes, which still dream hope and fight back life\u2019s calamity with grace\u2026..<\/p>\n
