I thought we too should give it a try,” Mr. Poojary told The Hindu. “I took the help of an art teacher, Badiger, from Government Junior College, Uppunda, and Somashekhar, a teacher from Government School, Aroor, and a student, Girish. “The painting was done from 5.30 p.m. to 10.30 p.m. We managed it in ₹36,000, because everyone volunteered,” Mr. Poojary said.
