In the august presence of Arindam Sil, Sohini Sarkar, Bickram Ghosh, Joydip Kundu and others, the 2019 Calendar of SHER was launched.

Artist Partha Dasgupta has done the paintings of the calendar. He is a renowned artist and an installation artist. He combined ink and brush to paint the twelve pictures. The main aim to ask him to paint was to show how an artist views the process of conservation.

Speaking at the event, Arindam Sil said “Even the hilly areas have become cautious and they have banned the use of plastic. But Kolkata which is a huge city have not been able to implement any such laws. We need to take conservation seriously or else global warming and other issues will rise and pose a threat to the world”.

Sohini Sarkar refers to Joydip Kundu as Bagh Mama. The actress said that she always felt nice to come for any event of SHER and that people like Joydip Kundu reaffirms our belief that there are still good people who care enough for the environment and wildlife.

We hope that people become aware about conserving the wildlife with the help of this calendar launch.
