Designer Rohit Verma talking about Sonagachi collection "before Kulta Randi!! Chinaar!! Adjectives are endless when it comes to define existential presence in Sonagachi. The area that is hushed and not talked about by the so called elite or dignified. What transmogrifies an individual into a Strumpet ?? Ordeals, bigger than life challenges, destiny or hypocrites like us! Solace, empathy or human gesture are a far cry from humanity when it comes to mentioning Sonagachi."
Further added "Hailing and applauding those who are recklessly hooted and ostracised !! The Strumpets of Sonagachi !! Lauding the soul, the heart and the indomitable spirit of life on Sonagachi. Rohit Verma dedicates the collection to the murkiest place of the world where the Sun never fails to shine, the air never fails to rustle and the rain never fails to patter. Let us all touch them through empathy, kind words and revere for what they are. Let’s make a difference You and Me and accept them for what or who they are. Time we look beyond and introspect the circumstances that have led them to lead a life they live and not judge by our menial approach. They deserve respect and humanity; they are a creation of this universe just like you and me. Sonagachi where the battle is ongoing and the struggle to live comes with a price every moment. Love, Reverance and An Ode to Sonagachi. ‘The Strumpets an Undying Spirit ‘
