Recently on 19th July 2025 celebrated my birthday in P.V.R. Trust Degree College, Kakinada and in some schools like earlier some years of my birthday celebrations in schools.

This Ghats of Benares (Varanasi) Canvas Drawing of my collection attracted very much to all students and staff members of the college. I told with students and staff the story behind this Canvas Drawing Painting of who create this. I told them as "Ten years ago around 2016 period one French Woman named Anita (who loved Indian Art and Culture and with that inspiration she add Indian name Anita in her name initials alongwith her french name). At that time she is six months old pregnant and even though she have little pain (which generally  every pregnant woman for moving around or in walking and in other activities) Anita during that period 9 years ago she spent nearly one week to ten days every in Benares from morning 6 AM to evening 6 PM in Boat Riding on Ganga River by observing every Ghat of Benares in detailed and drawing those Ghat paintings while sitting in Boat on Ganga River in Varanasi by every day 12 hours even though she has little pain of pregnancy she patiently drawn those Ghats paintings of nearly 50 to 60 Ghats and then later compiled these Ghats paintings together in Bombay by preparing all Ghats combined in a Canvas painting. After completion of  canvas painting work she returned to Varanasi and put some 30 plus Ghats of Banaras Canvas paintings in a Greetings Cards Shop in Varanasi named Nitin Stores which is nearby Dashashwamedha Ghat and told with Nitin as give these Canvas paintings to those people who come to your place and who have deep love on Indian Art and culture. Nitin told me this story of Anita and her love to Indian Art and her dedication to drawn the Banaras Ghats at the time her sixth month pregnancy 9 years ago. I got this canvas painting from Nitin during my last year visit to Varanasi." Staff and students of college are very much impressed and inspired with the story of Anita a french pregnant woman and her dedication of drawing these Ghats painting 9 years ago.
