Ace photographer Atul Kasbekar speaking about the initiative stated, “Proud Fathers for Daughters is very close to my heart. There are a lot of economic and social barriers when it comes to education, particularly girls’ education.

In the 4th season, it is poised to give many more fathers a chance to show the world their love and pride for their daughters. And what’s more it will also educate many more underprivileged girls.
