The man who cycled from India to Sweden for love

In 1975 a 20 year old Swedish woman called Lotta von Schedvin drove to India with some friends for a few weeks' holiday. While she was there, she met a man in his mid-twenties, called PK Mahanandia, an impoverished art student, who made a bit of cash in the evenings by sketching tourists. They told Jo Fidgen about their extraordinary love story. (Credit: PK Mahanandia/Lotta von Schedvin.)
