It began as a gimmick but estate agent Sevenraj got a bit carried away.

Now his car, clothes, office, house and everything in it are red and white – even his family.

Fifty-two-year-old Sevenraj – so named because he was the seventh child – has become a minor celebrity in Bangalore, India, where he lives.In this photograph taken on July 26, 2014, a collection of red and white pairs of shoes stand in row at the residence Indian businessman Sevenraj , who has a fixation for the colours red and white in Bangalore. 52-year-old Sevenraj's fetish for red and white colours started several decades ago with an intention to create a unique identity for himself and a brand image for his real estate agency went on to become a part and parcel of his life, his home and his family. Born as the seventh offspring, his realist father named him 'Sevenraj' and thus the number '7' too has remained his other fixation apart from the 'Red & White' colours.

Explaining his choice, he said: ‘Mahatma Gandhi is recognised by his glasses and bare torso with a white towel, so I had to do something similar to be recognised by one and all.’

His long-suffering wife Pushpa, 42, said: ‘Eighteen years ago, when I got married, it was something new for me. Later on, I understood the craze of my husband and stood by him.

‘Whenever I am with him, I wear red and white colour combinations.’

Being the seventh born, his car’s number plate ends in four sevens, his telephone number ends 777 and he has the number seven sewn on to his clothes. And guess how many buttons he has on his blazer.In this photograph taken on July 26, 2014, Indian businessman Sevenraj who has a fixation for the colours red and white poses outside his residence in Bangalore. 52-year-old Sevenraj's fetish for red and white colours started several decades ago with an intention to create a unique identity for himself and a brand image for his real estate agency went on to become a part and parcel of his life, his home and his family.
