Ganja Mahua Painting

This is a story of how a couple defied the age old caste traditions and proved that love is superior to all In the medivial times, a boy from a lower and a girl from an upper caste fell in love and wanted to marry and spend their life together However, the society didn't accept this marriage because this was intercaste. The couple - (boy) and Mahua (girl) sacrifice themselves in a forest And a place where they sacrificed, two trees - grew together interwined against each other The story highlights the strength and innocence of love. It is believed that love always blinds people (in a good way), it is a feel, when mutual can help a person calm themselves forgetting the turmoil around us - the artist tells that's exactly how one feels when consuming or mahua Today, the age old caste practice still continues - people from the Gond community aren't allowed to consume and Mahua together, but it is always recommened to have them seperately"
