A blacksmith from Odisha who forges tools shaped like mythic creaturesploughs as serpents, sickles as peacock feathers. His workshop trains orphans to repurpose scrap metal, teaching that iron remembers the hands that shape it. When a cyclone destroyed his village, he crafted rainwater harvesters from discarded car parts. His latest creation: a temple bell made from melted weapons, its chime a call for peace. We forge not objects but futures, he says.
