Gopinatham, Karnataka 571490, India
During my photographic journey to Gopinatham I didn’t expect to find myself standing at Veerappan’s grave.A few elderly villagers sat nearby. One of them walked up, placed vibhuti on our foreheads, and quietly said he had met Veerappan. “He was a good man” he added without hesitation.In that moment I realized that for them he wasn’t just a bandit. He was a person they remembered differently. It wasn’t a place to argue or question. Just to observe, absorb and respect.I took a photo thanked him and left the place quietly. Some stories aren’t told through words.
