I found only this style suitable for Bhootwara as it has become a legend in Punjabi Literature as well as like a mythical story! Many stories are being published about it in magazines and books. Here in this painting I have shown all &#8216;Bhoots&#8217; busy in sharing &#8216;kathas'(Stories). Top stories are flying like clouds in the form of birds. few bird like stories are roaming in bhoots, one is being shared by Laali baba, another is sitting on Harinder Mehboob&#8217;s Head !<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Bhoots shown are Navtej Bharati, Laali Baba, Ajmer Rode, Sutinder Singh Noor, Prem Pali, Gurbhagat, Kulwant Garewal, Dalip K Tiwana, Surjeet Lee and Harinder Mehboob!<\/span><br \/>\n(I am closely related to it because of my elder sister&#8217;s research work on Navtej Bharati ji and &#8216;Bhootwara&#8217;) &#8211;
