Tanvi Niketan, homemaker from Juhu, noticed how in the last two years across-the-table conversations with dinner guests have revolved around one topic. Or one vase, really. A quaint papier mache piece from Bhopal that sports tribal designs stands on a shelf in her drawing room; one that's unlikely to have a replica in another home. Tanvi picked it up a couple of years ago at the Dastkari Haat Samiti's annual mela. The exhibition is back this year, starting today at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya.
