The photographer says the couple had to borrow money from relatives and friend for constructing the house. "We also sold our previous house to build this house," he added.
Krupa said that it was their cherished dream to build a house like a camera.
"My husband is a photographer. It was our dream to build a house like a camera. We planned and built this house. We feel like we are living inside a different world, inside a camera. I am very proud of my husband," she said.

Shame on you chinnappa. You uttered a typical Indian mentality of judging the woman when she suffers a rape
Looks like she moved out at her free will and faced such consequence. her fault
Need to change punishment system. We need something that arise fear to repeat. like chopping head publicly
so many grey areas are there.. such as hospitals, offices, schools, police station. need to have something emotionless creature.. robots or something else inorder to keep safe our sisters
What is the difference between RSS and ISS, R and I? R for Rowdy, I for Intelligence, so Rowdy and Criminal is equal so do not compare, Criminal is Criminal, Intelligence is Intelligence.
Woman is safe in India during Modi rule (if i say woman is unsafe under Modi rule, i will be called an anti-national)
A woman was gang raped and later she went missing. But people here are fighting with each other in the name of ISIS, RSS, ISI.. shame on you people.
wow ! naren kotian what a brilliant statement........... you should join FBI better hhhhhhhhaaaaaaa...
Dear Mr. NAren... How exactly you know that? You must be a member of RAW or ISI or ISIS or RSS I guess.
ISIS or its associate in India RSS must be behind raping this innocent girl. Israeli Secret Intelligence Service (ISIS) head SIMON ELLIOT (fake name Abu Bakr Baghdadi), Jewish actor trained by MOSSAD in terrorism and the same MOSSAD has been associated in training RSS - terrorists.
ISIS hand cannot be ruled out. people belonging to one particular community do all criminal activities posing as different people. Here they dressed like police and committed crime.
