How to earn cleaner ears, a street astrologer and other representatives of vanishing professions in India

Photographer Supernaw das was born in Calcutta, studied at the School of visual arts in new York. For his graduation project, he returned to his homeland, where he captured a vanishing profession and caste of India. Here, there are still these exotic craft like a street astrologer, street ear cleaner, manufacturer of manual mills and rickshaw. Especially these photos is a curious fact that Suprana reported revenue of their characters, and they're not always predictable.
