With the pace of life speeding up, it is getting harder to take time out for our loved ones. The importance of family values is diminishing. Yet, even in this frenetic pace of life there is a kind-hearted man in Chennai who spreads love through his work even to birds.
Joseph Sekar is a camera mechanic by profession. He owns four thousand five hundred vintage cameras and hopes to, one day, establish a museum where he can display his camera collection. He is unable to do so due to lack of space and finances. His passion for cameras is however not the source of his popularity… that is an entirely different activity. To those who may not be familiar with the name of Joseph Sekar, he is better known as the “Bird Man of India”.
Among the chaos and urban setting of Chennai in southern India, this 62-year-old Bird Man - rises early in the morning to perform the first important activity of his day: to feed his friends - his parakeets. A 4,000 to 4,500 strong flock of parakeets comes and sits patiently on nearby electric cables waiting for Sekar to come out.
