Jaafri

An escape to the countless untold chronicles of Calcutta, dipped in concrete- standing witness to centuries of revolutions and emotions.
A narrative of stories welded in cast iron, echoing the tiniest nuances that make up for the missing pages of history.The giggles over boi-khata, politics over chaa, songs over harmonium, and our bhaat-ghum- all things quintessentially Calcutta.
Our search for Tilottama's untold stories led us to these unsung heroes of our city's culture, the iron grilles of Calcutta. Pierced into the bricks and concrete, older than time's wheel, they called us to tell stories lost with age, found with love.
Join us, as we explore these stories of Calcutta's grille art, over stories concealed beneath rust, and a little bit of stardust.
