As per reports, the artist Mangesh Nipanikar had made a huge rangoli of Shivaji Maharaj last year, so this year he wanted to do something different. So he thought of a farm painting. For this, he started the preparations a week in advance. Over 2500 kgs of seeds were utilised to make this lovely farm painting possible. He planted the seeds a week before and on the day of Shivaji Jayanti, it all grew perfectly green to make a face of the great Maratha warrior. And to make sure that people can differentiate between the plants and the landscape, he also made a frame around, to make it look like a perfect painting.
