Window to the rain

You know that feeling when the first raindrop hits dry earth and everything smells alive again? That’s Malhar — not just the raga, not just the rain, but an entire emotional wavelength. And this week, Chandigarh’s underpass gallery — the one quietly linking Sector 17 to Rose Garden — turned into a moody, rain-soaked art journal. The Chandigarh Lalit Kala Akademi is behind this exhibition called Malhar, where artists from across the Tricity were asked to do one thing: feel the monsoon, then paint it, print it, shoot it or digitize it. The result? A raw, emotional and occasionally surreal celebration of the most poetic season in India.
