Carving Thalaiva on an egg shell

BENGALURU: Shamshuddin Shaik, 30, a corporate employee from Bengaluru and a die-hard Thalaiva fan, has used his passion of egg carving to take part in the Kabali fever and pay his respect for superstar Rajinikanth.
Shaik has been dedicating all his weekends and free time to a form of art work – egg carving for the last four years, drilling into egg shells to make a design and this time, he has carved the superstar’s face on an egg shell.
“I use high speed drilling machines to drill into shells of duck, chicken, quail and emu eggs for carving several designs. Since it is Kabali fever across the globe, I decided to carve Rajini sir on the egg shell and pay my tribute to him,” he said.
This artist had got selected for India’s Got Talent but failed to participate owing to personal reasons.
