“The thing is I love ideas. I didn’t want to make art for art’s sake but to give back to society. It seemed like a great idea. I was inspired to start Royalerchobi as a means to address personal difficulties I had to face living and travelling in the capital; life in Dhaka can become very hectic due to very small problems. Using my own troubles I tried to envisage what the populace has to put up with day in and day out. Royalerchobi doesn’t have what one would call a colossal following but it does create some awareness. I chose art as the method to make people aware is because that is what I do – that’s what I’m good at.”
