Fighters at the circle
This statue of kalaripayattu chekavars was installed at the Gemini Circle earlier this year, replacing the rather inconsequential piece which was loitering at this space. This statue is one of the six which were installed around the same time, each representing a cultural facet. While the other statues depict dances and staged performances, this is the only one showing off martial skills. Does the placing of this statue make any statement about the jostling for space around the Gemini Circle?

It looks great! You can almost feel them straining against each other.
Hi! Shantaram, looks great. I also read they plan to paint murals on compound walls in major roads. Would love to see some of those. Keep it coming...

@ Hilda: Certainly one of the better efforts, as you'd said!
@ Laksframes: Well, Nandanam is already done - looks pretty good.
