Walking in the middle of the Desert, I wonder which one is more difficult to put up with. Travelling in the scorching sun with barely a few trees to offer shelter, walking on loose, slippery sand, or being mocked for questions that appear silly to the women in one of the country’s driest places—Khadero ki Dhani, a hamlet in Jaisalmer district that receives the lowest rainfall in Rajasthan. Talaash is a painting depicting the difficulties faced by these people with less rainfall and natural vegetation. But the hope makes them walk calmly through the hot sands in the scorching sun. The ariel view of the painting in the beautiful and colourful traditional Rajasthani attire with the actual matkas hanging on their head make it so lively that one can feel and walk through these sands with them.
