This is terrific, Ashim. It is so beautifully painted and well composed with the scene fading into the distance. Your square crop is rather nice in this case as well. The frame color distracts me a little as it fades into the sky- that would be my only critical thought, and it is not about the picture itself, which is just lovely.

Nice to see a familiar place in painting.
Lovely!

Ashim, just put a one pixel black outline prior to the greyish border. That should make this look much better.

Love the conversion and the overall Indian scene

I like the comp with all the action in the left corner.
I agree about stroking the picture with a color selected from the photo and perhaps add a drop shadow from it to separate the picture from the matting.
