PM Modi Praises Odisha’s Bhagyashree Sahu Artist in ‘Mann Ki Baat’

Rourkela-based ‘Patachitra’ artist Bhagyashree Sahu was in for a surprise when Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised her during his ‘Mann Ki Baat’ address.

The Prime Minister elaborately described how the engineer took up Patachitra art on soft stones during the lockdown. Bhagyashree Sahu had also offered tribute to Subash Bose through her art on his birth anniversary.

Bhagyashree also paints on bottles now.

"कॉलेज जाने के रास्ते में भाग्यश्री को ये Soft Stones मिले, उन्होंने, इन्हें एकत्र किया और साफ़ किया। बाद में, उन्होंने, रोजाना दो घंटे इन पत्थरों पर पट्टचित्र style में painting की। वह, इन पत्थरों को paint कर, उन्हें अपने दोस्तों को gift करने लगी।"
