The Chennai corporation has asked artists to not “highlight” Hindu deities in an effort to re-create Chola era paintings as a part of beautification work. Artists allege “pressure” from certain groups which had complained to the corporation. As the Chola era paintings we have now are mainly from temples, artists wonder how it can be re-created without “highlighting” Hindu deities.
The Chennai corporation had hired painting artists to draw Chola era paintings on the sidewalls of 500 meter RBI subway on Rajaji Road as part of the beautification program “Singara Chennai 2.0”. It is a pet project of DMK. After 20% of the art has been completed, artists have been called by the corporation officials to ask them to “modify” the paintings so as not to stir up any controversy. Some artists, on the condition of anonymity, told TOI that there was pressure from certain groups which complained to the corporation.
