In this special Hindi episode of The Gyaan Project, we spend some time with Jeevaram Suthar, a master carpenter who has worked with some of India’s most renowned architects like Bijoy Jain.
This is not just about tools and timber—it's about tradition, livelihood, learning, and the dignity of hands-on work.
We discuss:
* How one becomes a carpenter in India
* What a typical day looks like in this trade
* The financial realities of the profession
* Career growth and recognition in traditional craftsmanship
Jeevaram ji belongs to the Suthar community and brings over three decades of experience, wisdom, and humble pride in his work.
🎙 This episode is a bit of an experiment — shot in Hindi, aiming to bring stories from the grassroots. Let me know how it lands with you.
🛠️ If this story moved you, do share it with someone who might appreciate the beauty of honest craftsmanship. And hit reply—we'd love to hear your thoughts.
