Puducherry Blue, an exhibition of paintings evolved at the artist's camp held at Puducherry, India, was held under the auspices of ICCR in 2010, to bring together artists from the South Asian region.

The camp gave creative artists from nine South Asian nations - Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, the Maldives, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka a platform to interact and mingle with each other socially through the medium of art.

Since art knows no boundaries, Puducherry Blue was a step beyond diplomacy to achieve solidarity and to share a bonhomie and friendship through the universal medium of art.
