_______________________________________
Joney Singh, 25, lives in the small village of Mattan in Kashmir, India, with his mother, father, sister, and 77-year-old grandmother. He is a man of strong Sikh faith and culture. During apple harvest season, Joney takes a five-day break from his work as a police officer. He starts his day by tying his turban, then overseeing the orchard where people of the village come together to harvest apples, rice, and other crops. Joney nurtures the apples from his orchard and the kids from his village with equal care. He spends his free time teaching the kids of his community about their culture and religion.
Joney, a 25-year-old, wakes up early in the morning to get ready for daily chores in his small village in Mattan, called Nambal situated in Kashmir, India.
He brings his uniform outside to iron as tomorrow his work as policeman starts soon. Unfortunately, the power supply went off, which made him smirk a little.
Joney's younger sister Jasbir Kour looks out of the window to take a picture of the sunset while his father, Kanwal Singh, is gathering the grass for cows, as it’s a daily job for him.
A box of apples is neatly packed in Joney’s Orchards as the harvest begins. Packaging and segregating the apples with their grades are an important part of the job.
Joney stands with one of the fellow farmers, discussing the crop production. Suddenly, he gets a call from his job. He is a police officer.
A woman of village Namba carries her government rations on her head. She passes by Joney’s home.
Joney teaches some kids of his community from the religious book called "Guru Granth Sahib Ji" to bring them closer to their culture and tradition. This happens almost every day as Joney makes it a priority to spare some time every day for the kids.
