It was Shivaji Bhave, Vinobha Bhave’s brother, on a visit to Wardha, who first asked Kanu to take up photography to capture events at the Ashram.
He married outside his caste to Hemlata Lavanam, daughter of noted poet Gurram Joshua, in 1960 at Sevagram.
She worked for a while at a school in Udaipur before moving on to meet Gandhi with whom she remained for eight years at his ashram at Sevagram in Wardha.
