Richa’s special post
Richa took to Instagram on Sunday to share pictures from the shoot, and share a special message for her little girl.
In the images, she is seen flaunting her baby bump with pride, wearing a saree artistically to hide her modesty. She switched off comments while sharing the pictures.
“Maya Angelou said “My mother shed her protective love down around me and without knowing why, people sensed I had value”. You will always have value, lil girl,” she began in her post.
Narrating the story behind the shoot, Richa added, “These photos were taken in month 9 of my pregnancy by @harshphotography11 . The sacred geometry symbols on my body have been painted by @avantika_1988 . The flower of life on my navel, and the symbol of the divine feminine on my chest. Little did I know at the time that I would have a daughter”.
In the post, Richa describes women as “sacred vessels of the universe, clones herself to make another in her image”.
“Happy Daughter’s day little girl. We will see these pictures together one day, where you posed inside and I was bursting at the seams… this one is for us, so outsiders can look but can’t speak,” she ended.
