One bright day in Delhi, internationally acclaimed photographer, Niraj Gera, noticed an adorable visually impaired couple Deepak and Arti, walking towards Rajiv Chowk Metro Station. Their unusual love and bonding fascinated Gera. He couldn’t resist his eagerness to strike a friendly conversation with the love birds. As they were sharing their fascinating love story, Niraj was getting inspired to do a photo story on them, depicting their sacred love, which was beyond looks & appearance.

Arti did not realize when cupid struck them and brought unimaginable happiness and brightness in their world. Born with visual impairment, the couple started dreaming of a bright and colourful life together and forgot about their limitations.

Deepak, who is crazy about Aarti’s nature & voice, is currently pursuing his education from Kurukshetra University, Haryana. Whereas Arti, who loves Deepak’s voice & communication skills, is a student of Miranda House, University of Delhi.

Niraj Gera fondly shares, ” ‘Sacred Love” is a mesmerizing love story of a 21-year-old visually impaired couple, Deepak & Arti. Technology & mobile applications which have made mobile phones convenient for visually challenged people played a vital role in their love story. This unusual love story started with a random friend request, sent by Deepak to Aarti, after finding some similarities in her profile. And, very little did Aarti knew that accepting this friend request would change her life completely”.

Niraj Gera added, “Their amazing love, will definitely encourage millions of couples to quit the general frame of mind, of being judgemental about looks & physical appearances, and they would start appreciating the inner beauty of a person, instead of temporary outer beauty”.

Arti said, “Even if we are not able to see this series ourselves but love of people will surely make us overjoyed”.
