The art of inscribing on rice wasn’t new; it traced its roots back to ancient Anatolia in Turkey and India. However, Niru brought a fresh perspective, coupling her inscriptions with social and patriotic messages. The whole rice became more than a canvas; it transformed into a medium of communication, echoing the unity in diversity and the rich cultural tapestry of India.
 	Niru embarked on her journey of micro-calligraphy nearly 36 years ago. Back then, the whole Rice was a silent spectator of her evolving artistry. Over the years, it bore witness to inscriptions of revered texts like Namokar Mantra of Jains and Geeta Saar.
 	The whole rice grains, though silent, spoke volumes of India's heritage and diversity, a dance of letters echoing the nation's soul.
 	Niru’s artistry is not just a skill but a dialogue between the past and present. Every inscription on the rice is an ode to India’s rich history, an intricate dance of letters weaving the country’s diverse narratives.
 	The world watches in awe, for Niru doesn't just inscribe on rice; she breathes life into them, each grain a living testament to India’s cultural wealth.
