Proud Fathers For Daughters
Season 3 Hits a Milestone
 

Three years ago, a spontaneous conversation between Anand Mahindra and renowned photographer,
Atul Kasbekar, expanded into a path-breaking annual event called Proud Fathers For Daughters. This
year, the 3rd season rolled out to an impressive turnout and support that helped raise funds to
educate 275 underprivileged girls with academic, material and social support.

 
     
  Story of the Month
Cherishing a Timeless Bond
 
 

Since its inception in 2014, Proud Fathers For Daughters has been driven by the purpose of
celebrating the endearing father-daughter bond. This year too, the two-day event brought
together eminent photographers and doting fathers with their daughters to capture their
precious bond in timeless pictures. This one-of-its-kind event invited people to participate in a
photoshoot or gift a photoshoot session to a dear one or even a Nanhi Kali.

 
   
  The event that filled Mumbai’s Mehboob studio with joy, love and laughter was a huge
success. We wish to thank everyone involved in making it so; with special thanks to our event
sponsor, Mahindra Rise.
