A powerful picture doesn’t just say a thousand words, it conveys the sensation of the subject too. Such is the photo of the kebab seller from Kashmir clicked by Debdatta Chakraborty. Debdatta had clicked the photo at Khayyam Chowk in Srinagar. If you’re a kebab lover, a simple look at the photo can have you craving. In the picture, we see the kebab seller coating juicy seekh kebabs put over the skewers with some molten ingredient ( we guess it’s butter, oil or ghee). And he is wrapped in smoke from all sides. We can literally ‘feel’ the roasting process of the kebabs.
Click From Srinagar’s Khayyam Chowk Bags International Award
The click by Debdatta Chakraborty earned international fame by bagging the Pink Lady Food Photographer of the Year 2022 award. Among thousand of participants from all across the globe, Debdutta’s photo won the prestigious award. The click has been named ‘Kebabiyana’. The essence of the kebabs has been captured stupendously in the picture. Khayyam Chowk in Srinagar, where the picture has been clicked, is a mecca for gourmets and houses some legendary food joints serving tujji, kebabs, tikkas, biryani, tandoori chicken and more.
