With a credit card, even
beggars can ride. However, if we have to live for a month without plastic money, our mall visits will be reduced by half, we won't watch stupid films like Patiala House, and those pair of sandals would be changed every quarter, and not every month.

Fun intended
In her 14th solo exhibition in India, the art curator has put on display a vibrant collection that amusingly critiques our present-day consumer culture. Centred on the theme 'Liberation through Consumption', the exhibition showcases the second series of Bhatt's MokshaShots. A MokshaShot, according to her, "is a taste of the sublime."
