Titled Oddity: Don’t Bend, Don’t Blend, a calendar featuring six people with disabilities was launched recently to spread awareness about disability and raise funds for organisations working for the betterment of people with disabilities.
Conceived by photographer Rishab Dahiya and his friend Purva Mittal, who has a neuromuscular genetic disorder known as Spinal Muscular Atrophy, characterised by weakness and wasting (atrophy) in muscles used for movement (skeletal muscles), the calendar features the latter, among five other Delhi-based people.

Dahiya, who did the shoot, says, “I had been thinking of doing a calendar for long but I wanted it to be different and meaningful because launching a calendar holds a very important position in a photographer’s life.”
