An acrylic painting by my artist friend Komal Bhandari was the most expensive thing I have bought till date. It cost me approximately 6000 dollars and is four feet by four feet in size. This colorful square is the proud occupant today on my living room wall. I always look at it with both joy and apprehension as it may get soiled or damaged, because still there is no clear cut insurance policy for Art in my country. I knew when I bought it that this would become a priceless member of my family. It is so beautiful that I do not intend to sell it even if I get a greater price than I bought for.
