Behind the Eyes of the Tigress
The New Indian Express Jeypore
|November 16, 2025
Decades after a stranger captured her "tigress eyes," Pappu Devi still sits by her stall, selling the photograph that once made her famous
At a small pavement stall in Pushkar, packs of postcards are neatly laid out beside handmade Banjara-style bags.
The woman selling them, Pappu Devi, looks away when asked about the photograph on the postcards: It's her own, taken more than 20 years ago. Back then, she was a street seller, when a photographer at the fair stopped to capture what was called her 'tigress eyes'. The image travelled beyond Pushkar, finding its way to postcard racks across India.

RAHUL'S REIGN OF RELENTLESS DEFEATS
IT began not with a whisper, but with a political detonation across the Gangetic plains. Last week, Bihar, always a keen weathervane for shifting political winds, delivered a verdict so mortifying for the Congress that even its most seasoned apologists struggled to dress it up. Contesting 61 seats, the party staggered out with a miserable six. It wasn't a defeat-it was a spectacle of collapse.
