The project is a set of images of sculptures made from things bought from the Euro Shop, each sculpture is worth Rs 100 (Indian Rupees roughly 1.25 euro). I first visited a Euro shop soon after moving to Germany to get some cutlery so I could eat meals in my student Hostel. Thereafter I have gone there time and again either to marvel at the ridiculousness of the stuff offered there or buy a cheap alternative for everyday consumables.
The title is inspired by the song SAU RUPYA (100 RS in hindi) by the punk band riot peddlers which talks about corruption in everyday life of an Indian.
