Event Description : 'Aabru' a photography exhibition by Ratan Sonal. 

They say a picture says a thousand words. Wrong. 
Sometimes, it actually makes you speechless.....
With Delhi becoming the ‘rape capital’ of the country, citizens are found loosing faith in the system.The Spectrum of chronic gender violence is stretching every single day from minors being raped and dumped to acid attacks , marital rapes , honour killings , female feotecide....endless
What our nation saw on that apocalyptic night of December 16, when the braveheart of our nation our own fearless daughter fought with the demons and became the icon of resistance .
Nirbhaya has broken the silence. The voice of those silenced by Rape.

Ratan Sonal, has tried to give words to this horrific 
silence through the magic of his lens with his
 latest exhibition titled , AABRU....

He believes that through the medium of photography, discussion, dialogue and art, people can enlighten and empower. “Too many innocent victims have succumbed to sadism and barbarism of a few psychopaths. The alarming increase in rapes have made me more restless than ever and this is my way of fighting back against this evil,” he says.
