The painting draws inspiration from a story shared with a child about the intelligence of donkeys. In the story, during a fair where donkeys were also present, the owner would ask the donkey which pocket had 10 rupees, and it would stand by the one with the money. Similarly, when asked whose jeans had an open zip, the donkey stood near the person with the open zip. The child found the story hilarious and developed a fondness and compassion for animals, cherishing their intelligence and forming a connection of empathy towards them.
