The passionate motorcycle of a pregnant woman on a hill has captured social media. The video, a maternity photo session featuring Athira, a resident of Thirumel de Thiruvananthapuram, shows her elegance on a ball motorcycle, dressed in blue jeans and a white top, in the middle of the panoramic hills and valleys . The breathtaking visuals, captured by the friend and photographer of Athira, Reshma, aroused praise and online criticism. It is not the first maternity photo session of Reshma; She is known for her unique approach, each photo shoot has another story to tell.
This photo shoot, however, has a particularly poignant story. Reshma says that ATHIRA underwent a divorce procedure shortly after discovering her pregnancy. The photo shoot was designed as a way to celebrate pregnancy in the middle of the emotional stress of divorce. The photo shoot was faced with considerable criticism in court. They argue that the accent should not be placed on the fact that the husband is there or not, but rather on the celebration of pregnancy itself.

Athira, an experienced rider, chose this mode of transport for her photo shoot, leading to Ponmudi, near Thiruvananthapuram. Reshma went up to the passenger. Even his trip to the hospital for childbirth was on the ball. Athira preferred minimal help throughout her pregnancy, believing that acceptance of help would create a dependence, which she wanted to avoid. From the start, she was determined to raise her child independently, a conviction reinforced by the photo shoot. She was in her fourth month of pregnancy when the divorce was finalized.
The photographer underlines that pregnancy is not a disease and that many women feel it differently. She recommends a change in societal perception of pregnancy in Kerala, arguing that it should be celebrated, not considered as a disease. The doctor of Athira also encouraged him to continue his daily activities, in particular by driving his ball, as long as she felt healthy. The photo shoot has therefore become a testimony to Athira’s strength and autonomy. The photos recall this difficult but stimulating phase of his life. Above all, Athira experienced a healthy and simple childbirth.
