Pardon me if I sound extra proprietorial about T2 (Terminal 2 at Mumbai International Airport). Simply put, it is breathtaking and awe-inspiring! There are reasons for this. Of course, as a pucca Mumbaikar, I am a legit stakeholder and all that. But beyond local pride and parochial chest thumping, lies something else. And that is friendship! There! I have stated my interest plainly and openly. Full, frank and final disclosure, as it were. The genius behind the spectacular art displayed at our T2, is my friend Rajeev Sethi. We have known each other for close to 40 years. It was evident even back then, that this was no ornery chhokra boy flirting with the arts. He may have been hand-picked by cultural Czarina Pupul Jayakar, and exposed to the best of the best that India had to offer. That priceless grooming was his good fortune. Pupul's impeccable eye may have helped Rajeev 'see' better. But all that followed (like the opulent Festivals of India hosted in several cities of the world) was a reflection of his own incredible vision. His passion. And his profound understanding of all that is beautiful about India... and the universe. It is this finely honed sensibility that finds expression in the dazzling T2. Rajeev has created a palace of rich and inspiring art works that narrate our stories back to us... and then convey them to the rest of the world. This is a monumental accomplishment that would not have been possible had a certain Sanjay (GVK) Reddy not invested his full faith in Rajeev.
