On one year of losing him we exhibited some of his favourite paintings made by him and some unseen sketches of his. The exhibition was held in Kolkata as my dad was very attached to the city. I hope his zest and spirit remains alive amongst us forever. I’m sure my father is watching over us and smiling, until we meet again.”
