This is the 2nd post for the day \u2013 and no, I didn\u2019t change from the morning\u2019s cotton saree to wear these. After reading Meeta\u2019s post where she\u2019d shared Raja Ravi Varma paintings, I was reminded of the time in June 2013 when my friend Deepthi Sesaiyand had started Sesaiyan\u2019s photography. We were mahaa enthu about what to shoot and came up with the idea of trying to recreate some of Raja Ravi Varma\u2019s paintings.
\nI know I\u2019d promised to never post shoot pictures, but couldn\u2019t resist sharing this. I am not counting this as part of the pact, but wanted to share the pictures because of the beautiful memories it brought. As part of the planning, we\u2019d send mails with pictures of what we could realistically attempt and what all we\u2019d need to recreate the look. Accessories, hair, saree, etc.
\nDeepthi and I go back a long way. Met her when I\u2019d joined the then Network Associates (now McAfee). Never thought we\u2019d develop a friendship that\u2019s rare, withstood the test of time where we may not keep in touch for months on end, but when we do catch up, we talk about things that are most personal and important to us.
\nThank you Deepthi, for this beautiful friendship! For these and other wonderful clicks. Sending you lots of love and hugs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
