Blind man's daughter (चल, पापा चल): people of Chhattisgarh (छत्तीसगढ़िया)

We meet amazing people in our life.  
Though strangers they are but bear character of profound depth and diversity.

Their story, quote, photograph,
makes it magical-reality

as if this being an incredible act of freezing a fleeting moment. 
Portrait of strangers, inhabitants of a state
vibrant monologue of human life,
to share herewith !!

Blind man's daughter (चल, पापा चल)
On a road side, out of a school gate, this blind man after selling his eatables, was collecting his make shift shop with the help of his 3 year old daughter. 'Let's go Papa', was all I heard from his daughter, and they start collecting things scattered in front of the blind father. For a few second she stared at me, as if I was an intruder in this drama, and then they were on a go, oblivious to everything. It was hard to tell this touchy story in a single photo frame.
