Let me first of all thank you for taking this Air India flight and reposing your faith in the national carrier. Rest assured that we shall continue to give you much more value for money than all other airlines be it the domestic sector or the international.

Air India continues to improve through consolidation and expansion. And our mission to connect more and more points on the domestic and international sectors continues unabated. We have increased frequency on the HyderabadVijayawada-Visakhapatnam route to six flights a week. The frequency on the Delhi-San Francisco sector will be increased to six days a week from November 21. December 1 will see the launch of a flight between Delhi and Madrid on a new Dreamliner. This shall be the fourth new international flight for Air India in a year, a rare achievement for any airline.

We offer the highest free baggage allowance of 25 kg on domestic sectors in Economy Class, and we are now offering free baggage allowance of 10 kg for infants. You can pre-purchase this allowance through our call centre or booking offices and save 20 per cent vis-a-vis airport rates.

We recently introduced Advance Purchase (APEX) Fares in our Business Class on select domestic sectors. Our eSuperSaver scheme offers frequent travellers handsome savings on the domestic sector and we shall shortly be introducing a similar scheme on the Singapore and Bangkok sectors. Being the national carrier, we also remain committed towards our social responsibilities. In accordance with the same, we are offering concessions for Arjuna Awardees, senior citizens, blind passengers, cancer patients, students and persons with locomotor disability. The fares for stretcher cases have also been considerably reduced. We honoured medal winners in the recently held Olympic and Paralympic games and we've launched a scheme to upgrade gallantry award winners. This month marks the beginning of the auspicious days of Navratra. The festivals of Dussehra and Deepawali are also round the corner. Air India wishes you, your family and friends a very happy and prosperous festival season. Do give us your feedback, especially about our shortcomings, to help us improve further. Bon Voyage. Jai Hind!

As the sun rises, its rays drawing patterns on the water, the only sound that can be heard is that of oars breaking the water surface as a few boats float down the river. And then, a miracle! The boats seem to be flying, skimming the top of the water, not really touching it! This is the magic of the Umngot river in Meghalaya's Dawki town. And there is more: the swallowing lake, Palak Dil, in Mizoram, and the Loktak lake with its floating islands in Manipur. In our cover story discover seven such secrets from Northeast India.

More wild secrets are revealed as we drive through the country's tiger heartland - the national parks of Madhya Pradesh. Some more flavourful secrets are listed in our international section, as we take to the roads of Madrid, tasting tapas platters in the best taverns and bars. As India takes on a festive hue, we delve into the gigantic kitchens of some of the most iconic places of worship in the country. From Amritsar's Golden Temple, which serves about 2 lakh rotis every day, to Puri's Jagannath Temple, where 50 quintals of rice is used to serve up the delicious prasad, we celebrate the most delectable divine offerings.

ON THE COVER The Loktak Lake in Manipur draws in hordes of people with its stunning beauty; few know, though, that it is home to the world's only floating sanctuary that houses the endangered eld's deer. Also in Northeast India is the busy town of Dawki in Meghalaya, with its Umngot river hosting a popular boat race every year. Assam has Asia's second-largest seasonal wetland, Son Beel, a photographer's paradise! Don't miss one of India's largest national park and tiger reserves in Arunachal Pradesh, or the gorgeous Palak Dil "swallowing lake" in Mizoram.

Air India has been adding new domestic and international destinations to its network. Under the ‘Connecting India’ programme Air India is committed to bring cities closer across the country. We have increased the frequency on our HyderabadVijayawada-Visakhapatnam route from five to six flights a week from August 15, 2016. This route is operated by our new 70-seater ATR-72 600 aircraft. On international sector, from December we are introducing thrice-a-week flight between Delhi-Madrid by Boeing 787 Dreamliner. We are also increasing the frequency on the Delhi- San Francisco sector to six days a week except Tuesday, starting from November 21, 2016.

AIR INDIA know-how

LIFE OF A PILOT Captain Rishabh Kapur, a proud Air Indian, says why despite all odds, he loves his job and the view from his ‘office’

Today I’m a proud third-generation Air India pilot, but the journey wasn’t an easy one. Born into a family of pilots, most imagine that flying is second nature to me; colleagues and seniors expect me to know that little more or have that extra edge. But it is not so there is no easy way to enrich one’s knowledge and wisdom. If one has to excel, one must have that insatiable appetite to learn. Acquiring a pilot’s licence seemed elusive at times, given the kind of training one has to undergo, the proficiency one has to demonstrate in flight tests, the countless exams that need to be passed, the high levels of physical fitness that have to be maintained and the overseas licence that needs to be converted into an Indian one. As proud as I am of my lineage, I can also say that in the end, it was my passion, perseverance and discipline - qualities essential to becoming a pilot that got me here. I was fortunate enough to get my dream job and am today a proud Air Indian. To most people, a pilot’s job looks glamorous - a handsome salary, a smart uniform, travels around the world and stays in five-star hotels - but only an aviator can tell you how nerve-biting and demanding the work can get. You have to give it your 100 per cent, as there is no scope for error. Let me give you a closer look into our lives, so maybe you know and understand our struggles. As pilots, we have to cope with an erratic lifestyle, from waking up at odd hours, being always on the move and coping with jet lag. We live by the alarm clock. We sacrifice time with families - no weekends, no festivals celebrated at home. Birthdays, anniversaries, school PTAs and annual days of our little ones are missed on several occasions in the hope that we would be on leave the next year and not be in a hotel room video-chatting with our loved ones. I’ve dreamt of being a pilot since I was eight. The

24 I SHUBH YATRA I OCTOBER 2016

moment I first donned my uniform and walked with my crew still flashes in front of me, and when I first stepped into the cockpit and was airborne, adrenaline coursing through my veins, I knew that there’s nothing else I ever wanted to do. A pilot’s life is spent among the clouds - and I always say I have the best view from my office!

LONG RANGE EXPERT The Boeing 777-300ER is a key member of the Air India long-range fleet

Mid-air initiatives

Air India, the national carrier of India, has an impressive fleet of nearly 110 aircraft. Of these, 12 are Boeing 777-300ER aircraft (ER: Extended Range). As the name suggests, this model is used for long-distance services. The Boeing 777300ER joined the Air India fleet on October 9, 2007 and the first aircraft was named Bihar. On January 11, 2006, Air India announced an order for 68 aircraft, of which 15 were Boeing 777300ER aircraft. This aircraft is also the proposed replacement for Air India One, the official aircraft of the President of India (currently, this duty is served by a Boeing 747-400). The Boeing 777-300ER is the C-market (aircraft are categorised as A/B/C-market as per their range and seating capacity) version of the 777300 range. It features a maximum take-off weight (MTOW) of 343.8 tonnes as well as fuel capacity of 143.2 tonnes, and has a maximum range of more than 13,600 km (7,370 nautical miles). The aircraft can accommodate a total of 342 passengers across three seating classes: 4 in First Class, 35 in Business Class, and 303 in Economy Class, with a seat configuration of 1x2x1, 2x3x2

THINGS YOU DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THE BOEING 777-300ER The aircraft has a wing span - from tip to tip - of 212.6 ft / nearly 65 m The overall height of the aircraft is 61.5 ft / about 19 m The aircraft can cruise at a maximum operating altitude of 43,100 ft /13 km above the ground The aircraft is powered by twin GE90-115BL engines, from General Electric’s GE90 family of high-bypass turbofan aircraft engines, developing a maximum thrust of 115,300 lbs First and Business Class seats recline to 180 degrees A brand new Boeing 777-300ER costs over $320 million / about `2,150 crore

and 3x3x3 respectively (many other airlines offer 3x4x3 seating in Economy - Air India’s seating is thus more spacious and comfortable). It has an average cruising speed of 0.84 Mach (1 Mach is the speed of sound) or over 1,000 km/h and can fly to a maximum operating altitude of 43,100 ft. On the US routes, the aircraft can carry a maximum payload of 66.7 tonnes, while on non-US routes, the maximum payload is 58.6 tonnes.

Whether you fly First, Business, or Economy class on the 777-300ER, you are assured of comfortable seats, sumptuous food, and great service

A day’s power in half an hour

DASH CHARGE YOUR LIFE

WITH THE ONEPLUS 3

Tourists and Business Flyers now have a reason to travel often with hassle-free "Dash Charging", available only on the OnePlus 3.


THE BEST SMARTPHONE EVER! Business Insider India calls the OnePlus 3, “A winner all the way” and other media outlets tend to agree on similar lines. Packing 6GB of LPDDR4 RAM, a top-of-the-line Qualcomm® Snapdragon 820 processor and Adreno 530 GPU, the OnePlus 3 makes apps, games, and other intensive applications a breeze to use. The 16MP rear-camera boasts lightning-fast shutter speed, snappy autofocus, and intelligent software to deliver an unmatched user experience in capturing that stunning photo or video, every time. OnePlus 3 also features a dual nano-sim slot. 64GB of storage means you’ve got plenty of space for your favourite pictures, songs and movies, and UFS 2.0 technology moves data three times faster than the ubiquitous eMMC5.1. And with a 3,000 mAh battery, the OnePlus 3 will last through the day (and beyond). The ultra-fast fingerprint ceramic-coated sensor unlocks your OnePlus 3 in under 0.2 seconds, even from a stand-by state.

DASH CHARGE : FAST, FUNCTIONAL AND SAFE This technology marvel allows you to get a day’s power in half an hour. No kidding. It remains impressively cool while charging thanks to its dedicated circuitry in the wall unit for heat management and dissipation. The fast charging option allows you to watch videos or play games while the phone is charging, with no net drop in charging speeds. Plug-n-play. Convenient. Fast. This is Dash Charge.

SCULPTED TO PERFECTION The metal unibody is carved from a single slab of premium aluminium, resulting in an ultra-thin design with a satisfying, solid build. Constructed using premium space-grade aluminum alloy, the OnePlus 3 exudes strength, is light to carry around and emanates a premium feel in the palm of your hands. And at just 7.3 mm, the OnePlus 3 ranks among the thinnest flagships in the world.

OnePlus 3 is now available on Amazon India for ₹27,999

‘Even though festivities have become more commercialised over the years, Kolkata is still the place to be during pujo’ Mother’s homecoming. Even now, when I can’t go out so freely any more, relatives and friends send the pujo bhog to my place — they know how much I love it.

However, this year, my team and I will be travelling to Bengaluru and Hyderabad for work on two of the pujo days. And I do find myself looking forward to witnessing how Bengali communities in these two cities celebrate the festival.

CALLING Actor Prosenjit’s favourite way to spend Durga Puja is indoors, with friends, films, bhog and adda On the screen Srijit Mukherjee’s crime drama Zulfikar will be Prosenjit’s Durga Puja release. The multi-starrer has been inspired from Julius Ceasar and Antony and Cleopatra. This apart, the actor has also finished work on two Hindi mainstream films - Nirang Desai’s untitled drama and Ankush Bhatt’s 3 Dev.

Durga pujo has always been a very personal affair for me. It has never been about pandal hopping, sampling street food or being part of the crowd. I prefer my own circle of friends and relatives, attending barowari or home pujos and watching pujo parikrama on television. But the festival does hold a very special place in my heart.

In Kolkata, though festivities have changed a lot over the years and things have become more commercialised than ever before, the essence remains the same. It is still the place to be during Durga pujo – it has a different fervour altogether. Don’t get me wrong when I say this, and I am not demeaning any region, but the smell, the flavour, the madness and the urge to celebrate that Kolkata has in these four days cannot be replicated anywhere else. Work takes a backseat and the entire city comes to a halt. All energy is focussed on Maa Durga and the festivities around her. Kolkata truly lives life to the lees during these four days (October 7 to 10, this year). As for me, it’s home, friends, films, bhog and adda all the way. - As told to Sharmi Adhikary

AB: THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY

CITIZEN AND SOCIETY

From the author of one of the most popular translations of Valmiki’s Ramayana comes the children’s edition of the definitive epic. Sattar distils her extensive experience with the text to write a version that brings out the epic’s complexities in a simple form that a modern Indian child can comprehend. With beautiful illustrations, this book is a great way to acquaint children with the Ramayana.

Hailed as “the finest batsman of his generation” by Virat Kohli, De Villiers is famous not just for his explosive batting but also for his humble, determined captaincy of the South African national team. From excelling at rugby, tennis and cricket as a boy to someone who redefined batting as a man, De Villiers’ story, told in his own words, is an inspiring tale that will appeal to cricket and noncricket fans equally.

This book is a collection of lectures delivered by M Hamid Ansari, the vice-president of India. It covers an eclectic mix of topics, as diverse as the significance of dissent, literature and art, science and technology, challenges in Indian agriculture and the role of women. The variety of ideas and opinions is a good window into the affairs of the state.

DAWKI, Meghalaya

Sandwiched between the hills of Meghalaya and the plains of Bangladesh, Dawki is a small but busy town in the East Jaintia Hills district. With hundreds of trucks passing through it daily, Dawki is a trade transit point between India and Bangladesh. Umngot river marks the natural separation between the Khasi and the Jaintia hills, and is forded by a suspension bridge that connects India to Bangladesh. Constructed in 1932 by the British, the Dawki bridge has military interest, owing to the town’s strategic location. Between March and April, Umngot becomes the site for a popular boat race. But even otherwise, this large emerald serpent threading its way through the hills right into the plains of Bangladesh, with fishing boats dotting its surface, is a sight to behold. A morning boatride on the river is surreal as sunlight falling on the water creates the illusion of flying boats.

HIGHLIGHTS

HOW TO REACH

The closest airport is in Guwahati. NH-40 connects Dawki to Shillong via road, a mere 95 km.

An ethnic paradise, Mon is famous for its headhunting Konyak Nagas. The largest of the 16 officially recognised tribes in Nagaland, the Konyaks were once believers of violent animism that celebrated headhunting. Capturing an enemy’s head was the rite of passage for boys and was believed to increase the fertility of the warrior taking it and of crops. Only a person who had successfully hunted a head was given the facial tattoo. However, headhunting was banned in the 1950s. Today, the facial tattoos and ethnic warrior jewellery are just symbols of their heritage - and the Konyaks wear them with pride.

Loktak Lake in Manipur has always been a crowd puller with its solidified floating masses of decomposing vegetation, soil and organic matter (phumdis) scattered all over the lake, lending it an exotic feel. However, very few know that to the southern edge of the lake lies Keibul Lamjao National Park, the only floating sanctuary in the world, which is also home to the endangered eld’s deer, or the sangai. A walk in the park is quite an adventure with its floating swamps bobbing under your feet. But the park is best explored on dugout canoes that ply in its narrow waterways. An integral part of Loktak Lake, the park relies heavily on the lake's floating vegetation for its existence.

Cherry blossom FestivAl The cherry plantation in Japan goes back several centuries, going to even 5th century AD for the Emperor’s pleasure. Then it moved to the Samurais who planted it along the streets, and when the flowers bloomed, people came in large numbers, wearing traditional costumes, listening to ethnic music and partaking local cuisine, sitting for days and enjoying the beauty of this bloom. This cherry blossom has established inter-continental friendship across the world and now there are Cherry Blossom Festivals in USA, Japan, New Zealand and Korea where millions of tourists go to witness the cherry blossom.

Meghalaya will be the first in the World to have an autumn Cherry Blossom Festival to celebrate and enhance its touristic and aesthetic appeal. This will add yet another feather to Meghalaya's crown of achievements in the field of tourism and culture. Meghalaya, also known as ‘Abode of the Clouds’ has one of the world's largest surviving matrilineal cultures. It has a rich forest cover and its forests are considered among the richest botanical habitats of Asia, which support rich floral and faunal diversity. Meghalaya also offers many adventure tourism opportunities in the form of mountaineering, rock climbing, trekking and hiking, caving (spelunking) and water sports. Meghalaya's capital, Shillong, the “Scotland of the East”, is often called "India's Rock Music Capital" due to its inhabitants' great passion for music. In 2016, it was voted "India's Favourite Hill Station" by HolidayIQ.com.

Cherry blossom FestivAl initiAtive As a curtain raiser for holding India’s first Cherry Blossom Festival in the State, the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Meghalaya, Dr. Mukul M. Sangma launched the cherry blossom plantation on May 14, 2015 at Shillong by planting the first sapling. Lauding this important initiative, the Hon’ble Chief Minister said, “the festival is well thought of given Meghalaya’s salubrious climate and the rich culture of food, music and cultural festivals that already exist in our state. The plantation will also be extended to areas in and around Shillong and also to New Shillong Township where we will have cherry blossom avenues”. During the months of July-August 2015, approximately 2,000 cherry plants were planted by the Forest & Environment Department, Government of Meghalaya in and around Shillong.

THE CLIMATE

CHROMOSOME

If you are bothered about climate change, start by questioning consumption, not energy-efficiency, says Amitav Ghosh. Shubh Yatra takes notes Anybody who has read The Hungry Tide will be familiar with acclaimed author Amitav Ghosh’s avidity with nature. Through the book, he subtly tries to bring to light the unpredictability of nature, the havoc and destruction it can cause and how humans, no matter how powerful, are incapable of stopping it. It has been 12 years since the book’s release, but his interest in nature has not waned, resurfacing in his latest, The Great Derangement, an extensive discussion on the

56 I SHUBH YATRA I OCTOBER 2016

absence of climate change in literary, historical and political discourse. Ghosh’s primary concern is with climate change and the people affected therein. “We are beginning to see unseasonal rainfall, one of the many effects of climate change,” he says. “In absolute terms, the poor will be the first to be hit - and will be hit the worst, too. That, though, does not mean the rich will remain unaffected.

shubh-yatra.in



OPEN HOUSE opinion

Amitav Ghosh’s first non-fiction work on the environment, The Great Derangement, comes after a series of best selling fictional works like the Ibis Trilogy and The Hungry Tide

Ghosh rues the absence of the issue of climate change in literature and says that it has also become about styles of living and consumption When nature strikes, it will not pick between the rich and the poor.” According to him, the current discourse revolves around conserving resources and adopting energy-efficient means of livelihood. And the minute we talk about lifestyle, we talk about consumption. “All the conversation now is about energy efficiency and substituting electricity generated through conventional means with solar and wind power. However, energy efficiency always leads to greater consumption - this was pointed out as far back as the 19th century by Samuel Jevons, one of the earliest energy economists. This is, in fact, called the Jevons Paradox. The problem, thus, cannot be solved by questioning efficiency but by questioning consumption,” he points out. More than that, what disturbs Ghosh is that the subject is not allowed to appear in literature, “because literature has also become about styles of living and consumption”. Modern literature conceives freedom to be the freedom to consume, and does not point a finger at it.

58 I SHUBH YATRA I OCTOBER 2016

shubh-yatra.in

Why, then, are no stern steps taken towards conservation when we have conventions and conferences on international levels addressing the subject? Ghosh explains that there is a systematic silencing of voices, as seen in the Paris Agreement. “This issue of climate justice was recognised in earlier conventions such as the Kyoto Protocol. What’s sad is that people do not realise how much the Paris Agreement moves away from this. So, essentially, the whole issue is reduced to something almost laughable, with only a few believing that climate justice is important. Similarly, the agreement completely denies all historical responsibility or possibility of any kind of restitution. All these matters are now off the table,” Ghosh adds. It is, therefore, the need of the hour to re-orient the conversation towards a more productive direction. “We need to address questions on activism, and I admire those who work on this subject, because there has never been a more difficult issue with the world. Achieving significant movement in this direction is not particularly easy, as borne out by the fact that everything we have tried so far has not worked out the way we had hoped it would. What we need now is a different approach - something the youth of today will relate to,” Ghosh says.

Guru Ka Langar

The langar, an integral part of gurudwaras since the inception of Sikhism and institutionalised by Guru Ram Das, is a great equaliser. According to folklore, even Emperor Akbar, before his audience with Guru Nanak, had to eat at the langar, sitting next to a commoner. Guru Ka Langar, at the Golden Temple in Amritsar, churns out 2,00,000 rotis, 1.5 tonnes of dal and an equal amount of vegetables to feed almost 1,00,000 people every day! And the two dining halls have a combined seating capacity of 5,000!

Iskcon Foundation’s Akshaya Patra

While most temple kitchens were built to serve devotees, the idea behind ISKCON Foundation’s Akshaya Patra was to create the world’s largest school lunch programme. It is said that the idea was born when AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, while travelling to Mayapur, a village near Kolkata, in 2000, saw a group of children fighting with stray dogs over scraps

7000 of food. Today, Akshaya Patra has become not only a movement but an extraordinary, state-of-the-art facility that churns out 1,50,000 meals in less than five hours, with a fully mechanised work system supervised by quality-controllers. Every day, the kitchen sends 15 tonnes of rice, 4 tonnes of lentils and 8-9 tonnes of vegetables to more than 1,000 schools within a 100-km radius. It currently feeds 1.6 million children in more than 10,000 government schools across the nine states Akshaya Patra has a branch in.

not managed by a foundation or a trust but by a single family - the Heggades - for the past 21 generations. This, along with lending the temple a unique ambience and following, has also given its food logic-defying consistency. How does the kitchen manage to churn out the same delicious flavours every single day? The answer lies with the Heggades brothers, who prepare nearly 70 quintals of rice, 15 quintals of vegetables and dishes made of 2,000 coconuts every day! Of course, they are helped by a state-of-the-art set-up. The energy-efficient and environment-friendly kitchen which has a 19,800 sq ft dining area - uses biogas from the cowshed for cooking, and compost, on which food is cooked in a specially developed area.

Said to be the largest in the country, the Jagannath Temple’s kitchen in Puri since its inception has had an army of 500 cooks and 300 helpers to serve 1,00,000 people every day, round the clock - which means almost 285 varieties of vegetarian and nonvegetarian dishes every day. Designed on the age-old sustainability principle, the kitchen minimises wastage while improving functionality. But what makes it truly wonderful is the style of cooking. The cooking is done without any supervision and it is said that the main kitchen area uses the ancient practice of heat transfer and steam cooking to prepare all the prasad at the same time. The kitchen prepares seven meals a day, and each prasad includes 13 items.

Sri Sai Sansthan Prasadalaya, Shirdi

Built on 7.5 acres of land, with a built-up area of 1,83,000 sq ft, and only 700 m from the main Sai Baba temple, this kitchen is unique in more ways than one. The facility, owned by the Sri Sai Baba Sansthan Trust, serves more than 60,000 devotees every day, with nearly 40,000 meals and dishes prepared from fuel generated by 73 solar panels on four rooftops. This is India’s first and largest solar-powered kitchen. The prasadalaya can feed nearly 5,500 in one seating and it is said that Shirdi Sai Baba used the stone flour mill, or chakki, to end a famine.

INDI-GENIUS!

A society without the knowledge of its history and culture is like a tree without roots, goes the famous saying. No wonder, then, that India’s varied art forms are making their way slowly into the mainstream art fold, says Poonam Goel

Indigenous art is the “art of the land”, which families have been creating over centuries, without any institutional training, says art historian and curator Dr Alka Pande. “These artists are self-taught, who then pass on the talent to the next generation. It’s part of their living culture,” she adds. With the definition of art becoming all-inclusive in modern times, indigenous forms have come to occupy an important space in India’s contemporary visual culture.

COMING TOGETHER One of the most wellknown Gond artists is Jangarh Singh Shyam, who was discovered by veteran painter Jagdish Swaminathan, leading to a life-long collaboration between the two.

Recently, an exhibition titled Many Indias, hosted by Delhi’s Must Art Gallery, showcased 12 genres of indigenous art. “Many Indias is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the rich treasure trove of indigenous art. Each of the 29 states and seven union territories of India have at least a couple of indigenous art forms,” says Tulika Kedia, director, Must Art Gallery. Many of these have seen a resurgence over the years, thanks to the efforts of patrons such as Kedia, and Anubhav Nath of Ojas Art. While Kedia recently set up the Kanha Museum of Life

and Art, curated by Dr Pande, which houses a stunning collection of indigenous art, Nath constituted the annual Ojas Art Award, which honours indigenous artists with a monetary award and an exhibition.

Inspired by nature

One of the most visible art forms is the Gond tribal art of central India. The hills, the streams and the forests become the basic motifs in the art, traditionally drawn on the walls of Gond homes. Usually made on festive occasions and depicting social customs, Gond paintings use natural colours derived from charcoal, coloured soil, plant sap, leaves and cow dung. The striking feature of this art is the use of dots and dashes that impart a sense of movement to it. While this art form was created as an intimate connection to Nature, it was also thought to ward off evil and usher in luck. Today, most Gond artists paint with acrylic on canvas and paper, with exhibitions held in India and abroad.

Creations on cloth

Madhubani’s features are its intricate work, bright colours and its unidimentional depictions

Created like scroll paintings on cloth, Patachitra dates back to the 5th century BC and was developed by the locals of Raghurajpur, Puri and Sonepur in Odisha. In Sanskrit, pata means vastra or clothing, and chitra means painting. The motifs used are mainly from the Hindu epics of the Mahabharata and the Ramayana, and of Lord Jagannath, the local deity. While Patachitras are traditional in their visual language, dealing with myths and legends, the Bengal pat, on the other hand, encompasses narratives of social and political commentary, and also satire. This art form of Bengal developed hundreds of years back, when roaming minstrels used to sing about incidents of the past to villagers. One of the most famous is the Kalighat pat created by artists called patuas, or painters on cloth.

Madhubani goes mainstream

One of the most enduring indigenous art forms is the Mithila-Madhubani art, which originated in the Mithila region bordering India and Nepal and later flourished in the Madhubani district of Bihar. Madhubani has been an intrinsic part of the Mithila culture and community - also called likhiya or writing - and was traditionally regarded as the language of women, who were thought to create mainly mythology-inspired

74 I SHUBH YATRA I OCTOBER 2016

paintings in their homes and on occasions such as marriages and childbirth. The art relies heavily on the icons of Hindu mythology and motifs from Nature. The acceptance of the art into the mainstream has also been because of newer artists being able to adapt the style in modern ways. Artists such as Neelkanth Chowdhury and Manisha Jha have been very successful in the contemporary stylisation of the art, using newer narratives and subtle colour palettes that appeal to a much larger art base. In fact, time and again these art forms have influenced modern-day artists. “Artists such as A Ramachandran have been deeply influenced by Kerala murals; Arpana Caur has done collaborative work with Warli and Gond artists; and Manjit Bawa has taken inspiration from Indian miniatures,” Kedia says. Like the art forms mentioned above, Warli from coastal regions of Maharashtra and Gujarat, Kalamkari from Andhra Pradesh and Sanjhi art from the Madhura region of Uttar Pradesh have found a firm place in the mainstream art market. “With markets collapsing and the contemporary art bubble bursting, indigenous and rational art, which has so far been heavily underpriced, is finally on its way to getting the recognition it deserves,” sums up Dr Pande.

When in tiger land, you expect to see a tiger. Right? But Panna, one of the four biggest tiger reserves in Madhya Pradesh, throws up many click-worthy surprises while on the chase for the striped lord. The gentle Ken river, a wide emerald ribbon that lazily snakes through the forest, milky waterfalls gushing through gorges and an uneven and arid world of diamond mines... While the first is where you can spend serene mornings sailing, unless you manage to enrage one of the many ghariyals that call the river bank home, the latter is the region that has revealed some of the most sparkling diamonds mined in the country and is what gave Panna its name, the Diamond City of Asia. Just under 50 km from the iconic Khajuraho temple complex (the park’s Madla gate is about 25 km by road from Khajuraho), Panna’s forests are home to tigers, leopards, sloth bears and wolves along with the ubiquitous langurs and nilgais. During winters, start the park safari early in the morning, because as the mist rises, the forest comes alive with the orchestra of birds, most of which fly in from colder regions.

BANDHAVGARH

Harking back to the Ramayana, Bandhavgarh (meaning brother’s fort in Sanskrit) draws its name from a prominently raised area in the park from where Lord Ram had asked his brother Lakshman to keep an eye on Lanka. It is probably one of the best parks in the state for tiger and leopard sightings. It is said that all the white tigers of the world trace their origins to the Bandhavgarh region. Bamera, Blue Eyes and Mukunda are the most famous male tigers of the area, sighted by many visitors to the park. The park is divided into four zones, but it is in the Tala region that one is most expected to sight a tiger. While in Bandhavgarh, do visit the Bandhavgarh Fort; Badi Gufa, a large cave dating back to the 10th century, which is believed to have been a place of shelter for armies during medieval times; Three Caves Point, which is now believed to be used by leopards, bears and tigers; Jwalamukhi Temple, dedicated to goddess Jwalamukhi; and of course, Shesh Shaiya, a 65-foot statue of Lord Vishnu in River Charan Ganga. Jabalpur and Khajuraho are the two closest well-connected cities from where you can drive down to Bandhavgarh.

KANHA

A serene drive 260 km south of Bandhavgarh will bring you to Kanha National Park. One of the largest national parks in the country, Kanha is home to a variety of flora and fauna. While Indian leopards, bears, barasingha and gaurs are easily sighted, the biggest attractions of the park are its tigers. Safaris are held twice a day, in the morning and in the afternoon. The park stays closed from July to mid-October. There are a few jungle resorts around Kanha, some of which are named after characters in Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book, such as Mogli Resort and Baghira Jungle Resort. While on a safari, do visit the Kanha museum and Shravan Tal (a lake where Shravan Kumar is believed to have come to fill water for his blind parents). Also keep an eye out for sindoor trees, used to extract vermilion.

PENCH NATIONAL PARK

Pench National Park in the Seonee district of Madhya Pradesh is where the story of Mowgli - a boy raised by a pack of wolves - is set. If you’ve watched the film, read the book or seen the animation series and are smitten by jungle tales, then head to Pench, for this is where it all began. Pench is fairly easy to reach, as compared to other parks of the state. It is about 150 km from Kanha and boasts a sizeable wildlife population. The charm of sighting a bear or a leopard here is that it brings back memories of Baloo and Bagheera, the popular characters in The Jungle Book. The park gets its name from River Pench that flows through it with plenty of lodgings around it. An early morning safari is your best bet to sighting Mowgli’s friends.

Goa is one of the most storied states in India. Whichever way you look at it, the popularity of her beaches and the unleashed nature of her parties have left their sandy impressions on you. But push past the syrupy brilliance of her coastline and you’ll find another, more introspective side. Life along Goa’s rivers is anthropologically worth a student’s dissertation - the dolphins at dawn and the seagulls at dusk. One of the best places from which to experience the river is aboard the 42-ft motor yacht ML Solita on hire - from a couple of hours’ cruising time to an overnight journey. What underlines the experience is that the staff, most of whom have been with the Solita since she arrived in Goa, knows the bird and fish life around the waters like the back of their hand. A dolphin here, a kingfisher there, and the occasional eagle and the ubiquitous egret.

is also the creator of the Houses of Goa, a museum. For getting under the skin of old Goan homes, their unique displays, their Portuguese influence and their building practices, this museum’s the real McCoy. The rich decorative detail, imposing facades, wrap-around verandahs and wooden doors all push me once more to a walk around Panaji’s Latin Quarter. Here, amid a riot of sky-blue, pistachio-green and yellow-ochre homes and cafés, I stumble upon Velha Goa, a store selling azulejos, glazed ceramic tiles that came in with the Portuguese. Another triumph of culture in these parts, amid the cluster of old Goan churches and ruins, is the Museum of Christian Art. Housed in the restored 1627 Convent of Saint Monica, with its four-storeyhigh ceilings and exposed wooden beams, the place is worth a visit for the building itself. That it also has exquisite wooden sculptures, tabernacle doors and a variety of religious imagery gives you more.

BIRD WATCH Goa has three wonderful parks for spotting birds Mollem, Bondla and Cotigao

Hopefully, with all the moves being taken towards conservation, the more tourist-driven venues will never overwhelm the history and the homes, the architecture and the peace that made Goa so appealing in the first place.

A TASTE OF THE REAL

MADRID

On a night of tapas-hopping in the Spanish capital, Gustasp and Jeroo Irani recognise the city for the spectacle it is - an unscripted play, sizzling with dramatic moments

The Madrileños’ (a native of Madrid) body clock decrees that they never have dinner before 10 pm, and that weekends are meant to be largely sleepless and filled with nights of frenetic partying. When we went tapas hopping on our first trip to Madrid many years ago, we did not have the faintest idea of what to expect. We certainly did not imagine that our foray into the Spanish capital’s tapas bars would start at 9 pm and that we would fall into bed at 2 am, feeling like we had run a culinary marathon. More sturdy souls keep at it, moving from one atmospheric pub to another, grazing on tapas, downing glasses of beer, house wine or sidra (golden cider). After a hard day’s work, the partying carries on into the wee hours - the most romantic time, perhaps, for the emotional Spaniard to bare his soul and declare his love for his lady. While tapas-hopping happens throughout the week, it is particularly intense over the weekends, explained our young guide.

One stop in the Madrid flavour trail can also be made at the Plaza Mayor

As dusk descends and Madrid is clad in neon, entire families set out on the tapas trail, down the long avenues like a river in spate. The young in modish hairdos and stilettoes; couples with babies in their arms; and older folk on a post-dinner stroll… And visitors to the city fall in line, following the locals and the metal plaques on pavements that declare an establishment’s heritage.

Tapas are bitesized delicacies served with drinks in Spain, where locals prefer to move from one bar to another, tasting different tapas while gulping down beer, house wine or cidra (golden cider)

100-FOOT JOURNEY Tapas’ culinary speciality was first enjoyed in the 17th century, and today can include delicacies such as the finest and juiciest acorn-fed Iberian cured ham, exquisite seafood, and even miniature haute cuisine specialities.

Music swirled around us, as wandering street musicians strummed our senses with guitar riffs and soulful arias from unfamiliar operas. Music streamed out of bars and restaurants as if to set the mood for a fun weekend. Anticipation surged through us like an electric current as we stumbled down the city’s cobblestone streets, away from Puerta del Sol, Plaza Mayor and Plaza de Santa Ana. Most locals head to bars where the staff knows them and serves them their favourite dishes at the first discreet signal - like an arched eyebrow or a barely discernible nod. Our guide advised us to savour just a couple of snacks at each bar, so we could gorge in at least three to four bars that night. We were initiated into this Spanish ritual (which started as free morsels of a typical Spanish snack with a drink) at the legendary Casa Labra, a 19th century restaurant off the famed Puerta del Sol. We pushed our way to the zinc-top coun-

ter and the locals good-naturedly gave us way as we ordered deep-fried cod croquettes and salt cod strips fried in batter, for which this eatery is famous. The menu was scribbled on a blackboard, and the marble-top tables and wooden chairs were all occupied. But the highlight for us was to sit outside and nibble on our tapas and watch the world stream past. “Madrid moves, move with Madrid,” our guide nudged us, as we had lost ourselves in watching the spectacle that is the Spanish capital - an unscripted play, sizzling with dramatic moments. At one watering hole, we met a group of spirited young men, one of whom was dressed in a period costume. They were celebrating his last day of bachelorhood with a tapas crawl. Later, a stretch limo glided down the lively Gran Via with a bevy of screaming young girls, one of whom was probably revelling in her last day as a singleton, too. When a tasca, or bar, of our guide’s choice was

full, we would move on to another. We found that often, inverted beer barrels would serve as tables; but in one bar, a deep well had been covered with etched glass, on which we placed our plates of tapas and glasses of non-alcoholic beer! Sometimes we had to stand and eat in a convivial circle, as other patrons pushed past; and at others, the pace was slower, with seating available inside or in a courtyard outside. Off the atmospheric Plaza Santa Ana, festooned with bars, we stopped at neon-lit Las Bravas, famous for its patatas bravas - fried potatoes cloaked in a piquant sauce, a dish that this particular bar claims to have invented. Some say the sauce is concocted from hot paprika, saffron, sherry, vinegar, tomatoes, garlic, sugar and other ingredients the chefs refuse to reveal. Initially, this 1930s’ eatery used to serve only sardines, but around the 1950s, the owners got adventurous. Fried potatoes with the zesty sauce started

100 I SHUBH YATRA I OCTOBER 2016

to appear on their bill of fare. The dish became so popular that there are now me-too versions of the delicacy available not only in Madrid but all over the country! There were more surprises on our tapas trail. In an atmospheric alley, Cava Baja, the cellars of vintage mansions had been transformed into funky restaurants. In one of them, the speciality was grilled mushrooms sautéed in their own juice, which we pierced with toothpicks and popped into our mouths. We weren’t as skilled as the locals and sent some flying across tables and on the floor. Instinctively, we bent down to retrieve them, but our guide stopped us with an amazing insight: “The messier a bar when it finally shuts shop, the better. It is a measure of its success.” Little wonder, then, that some of the popular taverns, by the time they shut, looked like a tsunami had hit them. Not surprising in Madrid, a city where you must go with the flow and celebrate the gift of life.

In memory of

MahatMa

The Eternal Gandhi museum in New Delhi, a project of the Aditya Birla Group, recreates the life and times of Mahatma Gandhi through interactive multimedia displays, showing how his messages of truth and ahimsa ring true even today

W

hat are the first things that come to mind when we think about Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi? Freedom fighter... Martyr... Father of the Nation... Ahimsa... Satyagraha... Noncooperation... Nationalism... But even as we realise the historical significance of these words, how true do they ring in our lives? Do we really understand the ideals that Gandhi lived by or are they just part of a history lesson we had in school to secure the required grades? Has he become just a face in the textbook or a photo on a currency bill? How relevant are these principles in the modern day and age? These are just some of the questions the Eternal Gandhi Multimedia Museum in New Delhi tries to find answers to.

Bharat Parekh, a veteran with the House of Birlas and President of Eternal Gandhi and Special Projects, believes that even half a century after his death, Gandhi’s message of truth and non-violence remains as relevant as it was at the height of India’s freedom struggle.

It is ironic, however, that even as those halfway across the globe exhort the world to remember Gandhi in these days of sectarian violence and strife, the younger generation, the future of a progressive India, remains sadly oblivious to the ideals that drove the man in his quest for truth and non-violence. It is unfortunate, Parekh feels, that so many of us in Gandhi’s own country remain largely unaware of his life, work and message. It was keeping this in mind that Kumar Mangalam Birla, Chairman of the Aditya Birla Group, decided on a museum that would properly educate Indians in general, and the youth in particular, about Gandhiji’s values that he lived and died for. But the best way to do this, he felt, was to speak to them in a language they understood, not through pious sermons and well-intentioned books. He chose the language of the multimedia to reach out to them, making it fun and interactive through a creative and modern design.

The project, a joint initiative of Hindalco and UltraTech Cement of the Aditya Birla Group, is one of the world’s first digital multimedia museums, located at Gandhi Smriti, formerly known as Birla House, where Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was assassinated. Designed and executed by Ranjit Makkuni, the museum was set up in 2005 as an effort to recreate the life and times of Mahatma Gandhi and revive the values by which India obtained freedom, redefined in a modern setting. It presents the events of Gandhiji’s life and a spectrum of information technology visions inspired by Gandhian thought.

102 I SHUBH YATRA I OCTOBER 2016

Sometime back, in the US Senate, a Hindu prayer was offered for the first time, where Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev, said of Mahatma Gandhi: “Here is a man who changed the world, a man who believed in peace. If there was ever a time, with this international war on terror that we are fighting now, where people have to understand how important peace is, think of Gandhi, who dedicated his life to it.”

Spearheaded by Rajashree Birla, the museum includes displays derived from classical Indian symbols such as the spinning wheel, prayer wheels,

touching symbolic pillars, the act of hands touching sacred objects and collaboratively constructed quilts, sacred chanting in a group and the satsanga. It seeks to present the life of Gandhi in photographs, paintings, film footage and video clips, with a collection of more than 40 exhibits showing the intersection of modern tactile computing and new green art with Gandhi’s vision. The response at the inauguration was stupendous. Earlier, Birla House Gandhi Smriti used to get about 1,000 visitors every month, but now it sees more than 40,000, forty times the number, every month from all across the world. “This was an eye-opening experience,”

said a visitor from Pennsylvania who was holidaying in India. “I will take this message back home. There were some great interactive features and messages for children.”

The Aditya Birla Group even arranged for a mobile version of the museum to travel the world, spreading Gandhi’s message of peace. Besides the museum, the group is authorised by the Indian government to sell custom-created Gandhi souvenirs. These are sold at cost price by them and are available at select outlets, such as a gift shop at Rashtrapati Bhawan, New Delhi, recently opened shop in Ahmedabad city, shop at Mumbai International Airport, Rajghat, New Delhi, Gandhi Research Foundation, Jalgaon, Gandhi National Memorial and Aditya Birla Memorial Hospital, Pune, Gandhi Sahitya Bhandar, Wardha and Gandhi memorials across the country, including Mani Bhavan in Mumbai, Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmedabad and Birla House Gandhi Smriti in New Delhi.

“The amount of information was amazing,” said a mother of two who had brought her children to the museum. “Thanks to the Birlas, Gandhiji’s life will continue to lead people towards truth, generosity and ahimsa. The multimedia presentations were very apt for the new generation. I think a visit to the museum should be made compulsory for schoolchildren. Even I, as an adult, felt connected to Gandhiji for the first time in my life.”

They stock about 350 custom-designed items, which include statues of the iconic three monkeys, khadi shirts, puzzle cubes, crystal cubes, and a plethora of Gandhi-inspired items such as wristwatches, mugs, bookmarks, magnets, notepads, calendars, ceramic statues, paper weights, key chains and pen stands.

q&a

With the unceasing efforts of the Aditya Birla Group to reach out to not only fellow citizens but people across the world, Bapu’s songs of justice and truth will soon be resonating from all corners of the world.

What was the kind of relationship Mr GD Birla and Gandhiji shared? The story of the Mahatma and Mr GD Birla, my grandfather-in-law, is fascinating. They influenced each another’s philosophies of life. Mr GD Birla first met Gandhiji in 1916 when the latter came to Calcutta as a guest of the Marwari community. Deeply influenced by Gandhiji, Mr Birla used to write letters to him, to which he would get prompt replies. Throughout 1925, Gandhiji wrote on an average one letter every fortnight to Mr Birla. The letters were an eclectic mix - the topics ranged from socialism to philosophy, from the trusteeship concept of management and materialism to spiritualism. The relationship evolved over time and a large measure of affection developed between the two. It was mutual admiration. Gandhiji, in one of the letters he wrote to Dadoji, as we called our grandfather-in-law, said: “God has given me mentors and I regard you as one of them.” Likewise, Mr Birla would say that he was happy to be in the shadow of the Mahatma. Mr Birla was the greatest benefactor of the Mahatma and the Congress. He wanted his wealth to be used to assist Gandhiji in the country’s struggle for freedom, and for more than 25 years, he supported Gandhiji’s nationalism with his financial strength. On his part, Gandhiji acknowledged the economic and intellectual influence that Mr Birla provided as an industrialist and a mediator with the British. In fact, when Gandhiji went for the Round Table Conference, he insisted that Mr Birla go along with him.

Straight from the heart Rajashree Birla, CHAIRPERSON Aditya Birla Centre for Community Initiatives & Rural Development A little over 50 years ago, an old man took his last walk down a garden at the Birla House. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi aroused the deepest emotions in both his friends and his opponents. He has also been hailed as one of the greatest influences on the 20th century. For my family, he was Bapuji – friend, spiritual leader and mentor. We were honoured to have him as our guest and our lives were altered forever. The intervening decades have seen Birla House become Gandhi Smriti. And the nation formed by the gentle teachings of Bapuji has seen that simple wisdom obscured by the harsh winds of time and the subtle distance of deification.Thanks to the effort of Ranjit Makkuni and his dedicated team of designers, this need no longer be the case. In a fusion of technology and art, the life and teachings of Bapuji are made apparent and easily understood to people of all ages and backgrounds. Using language and imagery that cuts across boundaries, this comprehensive exhibition goes far beyond our cognitive reaches. Once he was our bapu. Today he is an ideal for the world.

Kumar Mangalam Birla, CHAIRMAN Aditya Birla Group

The Aditya Birla Group considers it an honour to be associated with the Eternal Gandhi Multimedia Museum. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was a man whose ideas did not know the boundaries of time and space. His indefatigable will and resourceful thought ensured that his nation was born not amid post-colonial murmur but with a roar of newfound life. But as time dims the clarity of his vision, the voice of Bapuji could easily become no more than just a memory. But none of us would like to see that happen. It is our hope that this unique multimedia exhibit reaches out to visitors, cutting across the crude, man-made boundaries of language and race. We endeavour to awaken the new generation to the teachings of Bapuji. We hope never to see the fundamental values taught by him fall prey to the passage of time. We hope to help spread his ideals, which are the simply couched thoughts of the wisdom of ages.

We will strive to keep alive the memory of this man who humbled an empire. With a handful of salt.

Rajashree Birla

Mr GD Birla and Gandhiji believed in the principle of trusteeship. How has the group taken the legacy forward? Through my grandfather-in-law, the Birla family shared a symbiotic bond with the Mahatma. The Mahatma’s values of trusteeship, truth, non-violence and justice deeply influenced our family. And these permeated generation after


generation. We look at it as a legacy and have zealously guarded it. My parentsin-law, Dr Sarala Birla, Shri BK Birla, and my husband Adityaji naturally imbibed these values and the trusteeship concept, which says that part of the wealth must be used for the welfare of the larger society. Consequently, the philosophy of giving and caring has become part of our DNA. Kumar Mangalam, my son, and Neerja, my daughter-in-law, are also cast in the same mould. Every generation has further honed the concept. Adityaji introduced the concept of sustainable livelihood for the marginalised, Kumar Mangalam has integrated our social vision into our business vision, Neerja is engaged with Pratham, Make A Wish Foundation, Save the Children and Akanksha, etc. and my grand-daughter Ananyashree has set up a microfinance company, Svatantra Microfinance Pvt Ltd, to help the underprivileged. I am privileged to spearhead the Aditya Birla Centre for Community Initiatives and Rural Development, the apex body that sets the strategy and direction for all our group companies. We work in 3,000 villages, reaching out to 7 million people across the globe. Through our intense involvement with the underprivileged sections of society, we help fight poverty in the villages and urban slums near our plants. But, of course, there is still a lot more to be done.

How did you come up with the idea of a digital exhibition? What role does it play in espousing the teachings and values of Gandhi? It is actually the brainchild of Kumar Mangalam. He felt a strong need to present the ideals of the Mahatma in a contemporary way to today’s youth - to give them a sense of history, to help them understand at what cost we won our freedom and to give them a feel of our leaders and our nation in its making. But most importantly, to spread the Mahatma’s message of shanti (peace), satya (truth), ahimsa (non-violence) and ekta (unity) in a grippingly interesting way. To rediscover these truths, we thought we should take visitors on an energising and revealing journey that could embed Gandhiji’s message in their psyche. To do so, we have created this technological marvel, admirably conceptualised by Dr Ranjit Makkuni. Mr Bharat Parekh, President, Eternal Gandhi & Special Projects, has worked wonders in fostering the digital show. How do you think the museum and the exhibition have made a difference in society? Every visitor is touched by what he sees. It influences them even at the sub-conscious level. The Mahatma is a source of inspiration. Up until now, lakhs of visitors have visited the exhibition to pay homage to him. Hundreds of thousands of schoolchildren have been

exposed to the ideals of the Mahatma - of truth and ahimsa. It is sure to have deeply impacted them. Are there more CSR-related areas the Birla Group plans to diversify into? Our vision is “to actively contribute to the social and economic development of the communities in which we operate. And in so doing, build a better, sustainable way of life for the weaker sections of society and raise the human development index of our country”. Our approach has always been holistic. The focus has been on all-round development of the populace, through our engagement in education, healthcare, sustainable livelihood, infrastructure development and social reform. These are expansive areas, which offer a wide canvas. There is so much to do in these spheres. We transcend the conventional barriers of business and reach out to the poor, because we believe it is our duty and we genuinely care. The spirit of Gandhiji and the legacy of Mr GD Birla courses through our veins. Let me share with you the India of my dream – an India free of poverty; an India of inclusive growth; an India where every person realises his or her optimal potential; an India where every human being lives a life of dignity; an India that can hold her head high in the hegemony of nations.

In these times of tension and strife, when the world is being pulled in various directions, there is no teaching more relevant than that of nonviolence. Gandhi Smriti will surely see increased visitor inflow on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti.

Is there anything special the museum has lined up for visitors? Gandhi Smriti has always organised prayer meets to commemorate Gandhi Jayanti. The Eternal Gandhi museum is a live demonstration of the values and teachings of the Mahatma. Every visitor is assured of an immersive experience in the teachings of Bapu, not just on Gandhi Jayanti but on any day of the year.

And today, 68 years later, this philosophy has permeated into our very thoughts and the way we act. As a result, India today stands as a prime example of a country that believes in what its founding father had professed. Not merely that, the UN had in 2007 declared October 2 the

Scenes from Hey Ram, Maine Gandhi Ko Nahin Mara and Gandhi, My Father (left to right)

The titular role in Attenborough’s Gandhi was played by Ben Kingsley - himself the son of a British actress and an Indian actor.

Of all the actors who have played the role of Gandhiji in different films, one in particular, Surendra Rajan, has played him thrice.

Actors JS Casshyap, Anupam Kher, Rajit Kapur, Darshan Zariwala, Annu Kapoor, Srikanth, Avijit Dutt, Mohan Gokhale and Dilip Prabhavalkar have all played Gandhiji.

the life, times and viewpoints of the great man in mostly his own voice.

Surprisingly, no effort was made in those early years to chronicle his life – not until almost three decades later. Ironically, the earliest chronicles were made by filmmakers from the West, including the United Kingdom, the very country Gandhi had stood up against in India.

However, Gandhiji has also been featured in biopics of other leaders of the freedom movement, such as in Veer Savarkar, Legend of Bhagat Singh, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, Sardar Patel and Bhimrao Ambedkar.

The first film, Nine Hours To Rama, was made in 1963 by Canadian Mark Robson and based on a 1962 book of the same name by Stanley Wolpert. The second, Gandhi, made by a Briton, Richard Attenborough, in 1982, is till today the most popular depiction of the Mahatma on celluloid. It remains the only film on an Indian theme that won a large number of Oscars. Doordarshan’s mega series Discovery of India or Bharat Ek Khoj by the eminent Shyam Benegal was based on the volumes of the same title by Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, tracing the history of India from 5,000 years ago. Benegal also directed The Making of the Mahatma in 1996. In the past decade, several films have been made on different aspects of the Mahatma: Gandhi, My Father in 2007, about Gandhi and his son Harilal being one of the more prominent ones. But perhaps the most valuable is Mahatma: Life Of Gandhi 1869 to 1948, a five-hour documentary on Gandhiji that gives a comprehensive view of

108 I SHUBH YATRA I OCTOBER 2016

Some films have also been made on incidents related to him after his death or influenced by his philosophy. The 2010 film Road To Sangam is unique, as it is based on a true story about Gandhiji that occurred in the early Nineties. It is about the immersion of his last remains in the Ganges, almost five decades after his assassination. But the most popular film of modern times influenced by Gandhiji and his philosophy is the 2007 fictional production Lagey Raho Munnabhai, depicting a local goon influenced by Gandhiji’s philosophy, which he terms Gandhigiri. Others include Maine Gandhi Ko Nahin Mara and Kamal Haasan’s 2009 fictional feature Hey Ram, where Naseeruddin Shah played the Mahatma. Aptly, the Jagriti song ends with: “Tune vatan ki raah pe sab kuch luta diya Maanga na koi takht na to taj hi liya Amrit diya sabhi ko magar khud zehar piya” (You gave up everything for the sake of the nation/ You never asked for anything or any position in return/ You gave honey to everyone but took the bitter poison yourself)

PUNCH GIRL

Sonakshi Sinha talks to Gursimran Singh about Bollywood’s changing attitude towards female leads, inspiration from her action-hero co-stars and the need for body positivity in the industry

There’s a new action hero in Bollywood and no, it’s not Tiger Shroff. It’s Sonakshi Sinha. The actor is shedding her demure image and packing a punch in her new avatar, quite literally.

I’ve been part of quite a few action films and remember watching the men do those amazing stunts and wishing I could do them

Bollywood has always been a patriarchal set-up, with male actors dominating the screen as the woman’s knight in shining armour. The leading ladies are reduced to being props on screen, objects upon which the hero projects his machismo. But steadily, if slowly, Bollywood is seeing a paradigm shift in this perspective. “Audiences are now opening up to different kinds of films. Plots with strong female leads are doing well.

The 29-year-old trained for almost five months to be able to do her own action sequences in Akira. “I trained in mixed martial arts for the film. I have been part of quite a few action films and remember watching the men do those amazing stunts and wishing I could do them, too! Looks like my wish was granted,” Sinha says. She is grateful to the action heroes she has worked with, as she feels that just watching them trained her in part for her new avatar. “Salman [Khan], Akshay [Kumar] and Ajay [Devgn] really inspired me to feel the action during the scenes,” she adds.

Apart from packing a mean punch, Sinha has been the voice of body positivity in the industry. She flushed down negative comments about her body even as she graciously embraced her curves. “Why are girls told they have to look a certain way?” Sinha asks. “When you’re trying to be someone you’re not, you’re not being true to yourself. It’s not worth it. Being fit is important, but looking the same cookie-cutter way is not.”

The past few months have been gruelling for Sinha. “It was an intense shoot,” she says. “I was injured thrice – first my wrist, then my knee and then my back. I had to look like a fighter, not dainty and unrehearsed, and had to get my body language right. For someone who was just working out at the gym, this switch was strenuous. My trainer would stretch me out until I screamed.” And still, Sinha is geared up for another round of high-octane action in Force 2. Doing two back-

Talking about the obsession with “size zero”, Sinha says, “I’ve heard kids say they are on a diet! Sometimes I’ve seen dieting taken to ridiculous lengths. I agree that one should eat healthy. If there is a certain look you aspire for, look that way - nobody is stopping you. But don’t starve yourself. I will always project a healthy body image, no matter what people tell me, no matter what is being written and spoken about me in society.” On a parting note, as she is whisked away for a shot for Sunhil Sippy’s Noor, Sinha reiterates, “Always remember: Fitness over fad!”

IndIa’s success In earth

SyStem ScienceS

With presence of Earth System Science Organisation (ESSO) under Ministry of Earth Sciences (MoES), India is emerging as a knowledge enterprise in the Earth System Science for socio-economic benefits to the Nation

E

stablished in the year 2006 by bringing all the agencies of meteorological and ocean developmental activities under one roof, MoES endeavours to holistically address various aspects relating to earth system processes for improving forecast of the weather, climate and various natural geohazards. The mission of the Ministry is to provide services for weather, natural hazards, climate, ocean and coastal state, seismology, and exploring marine living and non-living resources and the polar regions. Also, the ministry inter alia is responsible for development of technology towards the exploration and exploitation of marine resources in a sustainable way for the socio-economic benefits of the society. Over the past few years, the quality of weather, climate, ocean and seismological services provided by the ministry has been improved due to systematic efforts in augmenting atmospheric, coastal and ocean observations and survey, geophysical observations, polar research, developing adequate modelling strategy, conducting cutting edge research and investing in human resources development. Here are some of the major achievements made by the ministry in last 10 years.

Weather and Climate Services Quality of weather and climate services has improved over the last decade, especially in the last two years. This includes availability of better quality and high resolution digital data from INSAT-3D satellite and other satellites, augmentation of surface observational network by increasing the number of

claim to the United Nations. Also, comprehensive marine Geoscientific surveys were conducted in parts of the Central Indian Ridge (CIR) and Southwest Indian Ridge (SWIR), thus providing significant clues about potential locations of hydrothermal sulphides in the region. There are survey and exploration, environmental impact assessment, technology development for mining and extractive metallurgy for polymetallic nodules (PMN) over the central Indian ocean in accordance with the contract with the International Seabed Authority.

Ocean Science Research and Services

Significant progress has been made in establishing a large ocean observing network for the Indian Ocean during the past 10 years. Systematic efforts were also made to develop high resolution ocean regional models with advanced


data assimilation methods. In Ocean Observational Data, as of now, 19 moored buoys for providing continuous met-ocean data in real time since 2010. Additional 32 buoys were installed under the Research Moored Array for AfricanAsian-Australian Monsoon Analysis and Prediction (RAMA) project. In case of Ocean Services and Research, routine forecasts of waves, tides and ocean general circulation parameters for various stakeholders is being carried out on a daily basis, that is accessed by 3.5 lakh users daily. Also, the State-ofthe-art Tsunami early warning system is established for the Indian Ocean Rim countries at INCOIS, Hyderabad. It has been designated as Regional Tsunami Service Provider (RTSP) by IOC/UNESCO entrusting the responsibility for providing tsunami advisories to Indian Ocean rim countries.

Ocean and Atmospheric Technology

With implementation of Low temperature thermal desalination technology, fresh water was provided in 3 islands of Lakshadweep and North Chennai Thermal Power Station. An Autonomous coring system (ACS) was developed for ground truth validation of gas hydrate occurrence in Indian continental margins and tested over the sea floor of Krishna Godavari Basin. On request of Government of Puducherry, environmentally friendly shoreline stabilization methodology was evolved and demonstrated to restore the beach. As a result there is a gain of 60m wide beach.

Polar and Cryosphere Studies

This includes exploration of Antarctica, Arctic, Southern Indian Ocean and the Himalayas and scientific studies. Commissioned its third station ‘Bharati’ - a state-of- the-art research base at Larsemann Hills in March 2012. Six expeditions were launched from 2007 to 2016 with National-International collaborations and multi-disciplinary data were generated in the Southern Ocean. Success of Antarctic Ice core programme led to recovery and study of several ice cores from coastal Antarctica. Study revealed a substantial

warming of 0.6- 1.00 C per century, Southern Annular Mode and the role of ENSO on Antarctic climate.

Geosciences and Seismology

Seismic microzonation of a few urban centres namely, Guwahati, Bengaluru, Sikkim, Delhi and Kolkata is done to help in disaster mitigation and management, urban development, planning, design and construction, assessment of risk to existing life and property as well as public utilities and services. Also, National Centre for Seismology (NCS) at New Delhi is set-up to provide added thrust to seismological research in the country. Seismic Observational Network is strengthened, that includes 23 upgraded seismic observatories, 21 additional stations, and dedicated networks in NE India and Delhi. For the first time, Deep Sea Drilling was done in the Laxmi Basin, that enabled scientists to collect more than 1700m long sediment cores from the Eastern Arabian Sea to understand possible tectono-climatic link.

The SAFAR Mobile application shows real time data generated through system along with forecasts

Vision 2030

Despite tremendous achievements in just one decade, ministry still sees a considerable scope for further accelerating these initiatives to enable the country to become a world leader in providing high quality services, and contribute to economic and societal benefits. It also envisages to extend its services in developing countries of Asia and Africa and has proposed a future plan-Vision 2030 keeping in view the set of Sustainable Development Goals to realise its vision by year 2030. Following is the glimpse of its extensive documentation for coming years: • To set up atmospheric observational network at 25x25 km grid and upper air observations at 100x100 km, complimented by Multi-platform Satellite and air-craft based profiler observations, Doppler Radars, Wind profilers, Radiometers, Lightning detectors, and LIDARs. • Develop an Advanced Weather Prediction System, for block level forecasts, skillful for next 3-5 days and develop advisories for sectors for like Agriculture, Disaster

Management, Water resources, Power, Tourism and Pilgrimage, Smart Cities, Renewable Energy Sector and Transport. Develop an Advanced Regional Climate Services Framework to cater to the needs of Agriculture, Water Resources, Alternate Energy Resources and Health on the basis of location specific and user specific knowledge of the climate variability and predictions of climate variables. Develop a State-of-the-Art Support System for Aviation Safety with the advanced meteorological instruments and advanced forecasting tools for all the civil airports in the Country. Conduct cutting-edge research (through observations and modelling) to better understand the geology and climatic history of Antarctica and the Arctic, variability of the polar atmosphere and southern Ocean, environment and ecosystem dynamics, and cryosphere-climate interactions. Explore the Polar Regions of Antarctica and the Arctic as well as the Himalayan glaciers for monitoring and predicting the variability of the fragile global cryosphere system. Support the initiatives of Blue Economy by innovating, developing and demonstrating world class technologies for exploration and harnessing ocean resources- Energy, Water and Minerals. Develop the state-of-the-art sensors, electronics, communication and acoustic systems for ocean observation, exploration and deep sea operations.

Dr Madhavan Nair Rajeevan, the Secretary, Ministry of Earth Sciences (MoES) with his pathbreaking research on monsoon variability and prediction, cloud-radiation interaction and climate variability and change, plans to forge ahead in the climate research. In his conversation with our special correspondent, he highlights various achievements in last 10 years along with the future plans of MoES MoES in transforming lives of the citizens of India... Three major contributions of MoES that helped in transforming lives are agro-met services for farmers, ocean services and fishery advisories for coastal population and the tsunami early warning system. Monsoon plays a vital role in India’s agriculture sector. Therefore, India Meteorological Department (IMD) constantly strives to provide the updated advisories to the farmers at the earliest. This has helped farmers to postpone sowing time, change crop variety, manage irrigation and spray pesticides and insecticides. Advanced ocean services have increased productivity of the fisher people using satellite technology for forecast of potential fishing zone (PFZ) information along the Indian coastline and island regimes. As a result, additional expected profit in the hands of fishermen would be around `3,000 crore annually.

Monsoon predictions as it plays a grave role in India’s economy... Since monsoon directly impacts our economy, weather and climate prediction capabilities are drastically improved in last 10 years. The operational prediction system based on statistical model proved skillful, as the prediction of the 2015 deficient monsoon was proved correct. Also, we now have a dynamical prediction system for both extended range forecasts (next 20 days) and seasonal forecasts (up to one season), that is very promising. However, the task of prediction still remains challenging as we still do not fully comprehend many physical mechanisms that cause the monsoon to vary from year to year. Though we believe that presently El Nino and Indian Ocean influence the most. Extreme event prediction in changing climate scenario... We are expecting more frequent and intense severe weather events like heavy rainfall, flash floods and heat waves. Therefore, MoES is devising a strategy to deal with prediction of these severe weather events, which may include dense observational network and highresolution ensemble forecasting system for probabilistic forecasts. However, these weather prediction models face serious challenges in predicting heavy rainfall. We need to improve them by data assimilation and also by improving model physics. MoES is setting up specialized observatories over central India - one is being set up at Sagar University for high quality atmospheric observations that help us to improve model physics. Ministry’s mandate to provide sustainable livelihood for many... The Ministry is working on emphasizing on strengthening climate services that include climate monitoring, prediction, diagnostics, development of climate data sets and climate change assessments. World Meteorological Organization (WMO) has initiated a global framework for climate services, that we will organize into a national framework. The purpose is to provide climate services for our specific sectors like agriculture, water resources, energy, and health. India’s presence in Arctic, Antarctic and the Himalayas, the glacial lands that hold much promise for the future... Arctic and Antarctic are important as a part of global cryosphere system. Due to climate change, there are changes in the cyrosphere system. We need to monitor, document and even predict such changes, as any imbalance in the cyrosphere system may affect the global energy balance and impact the climate systems of tropical regions including the monsoon. In fact, the preliminary studies of the rapidly melting Arctic sea reveal strong tele-connections.

Be it for tan or tide, don’t miss these jewels -Tangalla, Bentota and Unawatuna in the south and Arugam Bay and Uppuveli beaches in the east. For surfers, Arugam is a paradise. Spiritual engagement Sri Lanka’s cultural triangle is of great significance to the Buddhist population, with the country having a repository of some 6,000 Buddhist monasteries. According to historical chronicles of the country, Buddism dates back to 3rd century BC . Sri Lanka is different from other Southeast Asian countries and one can travel along the length or breadth of the country in just one day. As the country is small, a lot can be packed into a day, like admiring the world’s oldest living tree in Anuradhapura in the morning followed by jaw-dropping sighting of hundreds of elephants frolicking at the Minneriya National Park in the afternoon and may be wrapping up the day with a roll of dice at a local casino.

Excerpts from an interview: The 4G handset is the latest addition to Panasonic’s smartphone lineup. What's next? From the hardware end, I believe the integration of health monitoring hardware will be the next big change along with virtual reality hardware compatibility with mobile devices. From the software end, there will be more intelligent apps that can be of greater assistance in day-to-day decisions. Google Allo is a wonderful start in this space. The consumer's fascination with large screen devices, ie mini-tabs and tablets (6-7 inches and above) seems to be decreasing. How will you explain this? The main reason for this is the ease or rather, the unease of carrying these

devices. A lot of device manufacturers have tried but customers find them really difficult to operate as both hands are required for operation and it is really difficult to hold such a large device while calling too. Android offers contactless payment through Android Pay. The system has not yet been enabled in India. When will we see its widespread use here? Android Pay or any other contactless payment system can be brought to India with the support of the RBI. Such payment systems will require huge upgrade in hardware, which comes at a cost. Usage of such payment systems is still very low in developed countries like US, so I think it will take some more time for them to be successful here.

DEVOTION AND DEITY Bastar Dussehra, celebrated for 75 days, is one of Chhattisgarh’s most popular festivals Celebrated with great pomp and joy, Bastar Dussehra is a vibrant repertoire of rich tribal traditions, colourful rituals, folk music, dance and a lively crowd. The celebrations go on for 75 days, making it the longest Dussehra celebration in India.

This festival begins with the dark moon (amavasya) in the month of Shravan and ends on the 13th day of the bright moon in the month of Ashwin. It’s the time when deities from all the villages congregate at the temple of Danteshwari in Jagdalpur, the district headquarters. Festivities reach a crescendo in the last 10 days. The presiding deity is Ma Danteshwari Devi and the festival marks Her win over an evil opponent. Chalukya Purushottam Deo Kakatiya, the 15th century Bastar king, once visited Puri’s Jagannath temple and returned with the title of Rathpati. He started the Dussehra Rath Yatra in Bastar, still celebrated today.

IMPORTANT RITUALS AT BASTAR DUSSEHRA: Jogi Bithai (jogi’s penance): A youth of the Halba tribe sits (buried shoulder deep in a pit) praying for the success of the festival.

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19)

Taurus (Apr 20-May 20)

Gemini (May 21-Jun 20)

For the impulsive Aries, this month holds a period of brief speculation. You will have to keep your impulsive side aside and think through well before you leap. It is important to have clarity.

You will embark on a journey by initiating something that is exciting, new and challenging. This new initiative will have its own risks but take the leap of faith and embrace this new beginning.

Positive news is on its way, most likely with respect to money and better financial prospects. This may come as an opportunity through career, family or friends.

Leo (Jul 23-Aug 22)

Virgo (Aug 23-Sep 22)

You shall be victorious this month. October marks your conquest over all odds. You shall accomplish your greatest goal and overcome all the difficulties you faced so far.

An exciting new beginning awaits you this October. You know this is good, workable, but the risks involved question this beginning’s true potential. Everything will fall in place, just believe in yourself.

Most of your worries are only your mind’s games. Relax, take it easy, do not think too much and the problem will automatically settle. Just give it some time and don’t go looking for solutions.

M I R A C L ES O F

NUMEROLOGY Honoured to receive Global Achievers Award by his excellency Shri. T.P Seetharam, the Ambassador of India to UAE in Dubai, (Jan2016)

In the bollywood glam-city awarded with Savvy honours woman 2016 from the hands of Dharmendra and Poonam Dhillon.

Received the 'Pride of India' award by the hands of The Ex Chief Minister of Delhi, Smt. Sheila Dixit in april 2016.

‘Titled Indian Nostradamus’ for her precise political predictions, since 2001 for our country.

Sandhiya Mehta is a Ace Numerologist, vast expert and now a worldwide brand who represents success and growth, for herself and for people she counsels. She has expanded the numerological field with her research and knowledge, and with advanced experiences has helped her to help every human soul in return, to guide them to their enchanting dreams, gain power over their fortunes and to come alive. With an aura au of bright lights and her charismatic personality, she has achieved of what many dream. She is in the field for more than thirty years, and in this journey has helped and exchanged energies and ideas, guided people to lead better lives, has received dozens of honours and recognitions, like ‘The Nari Ratna award, Indira Gandhi Priyadarshani Award, Rastriya Ratan award, Mahila Shiromani award, 4p Brand recognitions, ‘The Global Indian Leaders excellence award and many more such appreciations. ————Numerology is the most accurate predictive science, and has evolved from the ages of people counting stars as numerical references to today where we add up all the calculations and we have an outcome that guides you to the events in your life, and stay prepared for them.“To a person who seeks success, my system will bring success, happiness and prosperity. And to those who are already successful it will bring sustainability, positive reinforcements, further success and introduce to a new and higher perspective and lifestyle.” The Journey to my methods “I am someone who has evolved, and with every step of my life have just tried to be better in what I love, I don't just predict your future, I communicate, consult and help you empower your energies.” Every person is having an energy, a combination and each combination is different, hence they have only certain types of energy and lack other ones. This is what makes us human, that we can’t be perfect but we have to strive to be. My exclusive research and study of missing numbers in your birth graph helps me to determine what are the strong energies that I can see in you and uplift the missing energies to suit to your dreams and ambitions. With my years or research and extremely positive results, I help these missing energies in your graph. Its like providing nutrition to a body, by way of simple remedies and self improvement improveme tools that I have developed by myself. The curious case of 4 & 8 “In my research, nearly 70% people are connected to these numbers, and this loop then influences your further generations too.’ One usually guards themselves because we have all heard a lot about disappointments and delays, sorrows and hardships of 4 & 8 and with 7 they form a trio of these energies. But I see them powerful steroids, to be handled carefully. Then I will channelize it to positive planning and maximise your fortune’s profits. Feel blessed if you belong to them, we will empower your life li and, learn through 4 & 8 and reap more fruits of your hard work than you would have previously did. Handle your energies well, because only in the right hands they will empower with 4 & 8.

Spotlight: what is my remedy? My remedy is a tool I have devised to balance your energies in your birth graph. By Precisely studying the effect of each energy, and its powers we can efficiently develop the missing energies and help you get successful results. Its not an overnight change, nothing is a miracle, but I will guide you to work on your missing energies, in return for you to create your own miracle. The universe is balanced, hence if you want to gain something you will have to lose something, in this case we will help you lose your negativities, and help you stay positive, strong and successful.

SANDHIYA MEHHTA

Numerologist and Vastu consultant with activated Third Eye

Is life simpler without 4 & 8: The other side of the story Individually every number has its massive merits but if it doesn’t get the support of your fadic/destiny number it cannot do much for you. 1, 9, 5 & 3 are very powerful numbers and should get magnanimous success as per individual calculations, but if you are still struggling and have faced certain problems you should try and understand your state of energies and detangle the web, to create a free path for your future. “A bright star has its own energy, but lighting a lamp in the dark is much more meaningful.” We all are a mix of many numbers, their combinations play us differently and affects us differently. We have to empower these combinations in our fortune, to achieve what is extraordinary, which makes us exemplary individuals, that help themselves and in addition help their families, society, help someone in need who looks unto you. My advice “Knowledge empowers you, and there is nothing more powerful than to understand yourself, your potentials, what holds you back, what drives you forward.” I provide you this knowledge about yourself, though numerology. Knowledge about finances, career, turnaround years, lucky dates, months, years, things that help you have a strong backup plan for everything in life. “No mantra, fasting, name changes singularly guarantees you anything. Ultimately its you who has to foresee the future, and I help you to do so.” Follow a simplistic solution Meh that I call Sandhiya Mehhta’s remedy system, and we will work on your energies and align them in the right direction Get going with My success road There is a Buddhist saying, “You yourself must strive; the Buddha’s just point the way.” If you believe in yourself and the universe let me just show you a direction, you yourself will lead on the right path and achieve the results within no desired time. I have received tremendous positive feedbacks to have faith in the universe myself. “I am not god; I just understand my field of work and use it to help people, guide them and provide them with some efficient ways to be happy, peaceful, ever-glorious and a good part of our society & I continue to achieve results with all my clients."- Sandhiya Mehhta.

Are you aware about your Past, present and future?

TESTS TO TRUST Jerath Path Labs offer accurate high-quality testing services for allergies and more

One of the most renowned asthma and allergy testing centres in India, Jerath Path Labs provide reliable, high quality testing services for asthma, food or skin allergies and more. They are a fully automated and computerised pathology diagnostic centre with the latest modern equipment. They offer a wide range of products designed to deliver accurate test results and are the only chain of pathology labs in Asia to use ISSAC - a highly advanced piece of equipment to diagnose allergies. ISSAC is a tool for allergy testing that is completely based on allergen components. Proper testing and an accurate allergy diagnosis are the key to determining the cause of the symptoms being experienced by a patient. ISSAC also supports the monitoring of allergies, asthma and autoimmune diseases. Jerath also provides the immuno CAP blood test, which is a reliable way to test for allergies. It is quick, simple and assists in speedy diagnosis. "Allergies are one of the most difficult of all maladies to cure. They are a riddle for most doctors, but not for those who have the means to know exactly what is initiating allergic reactions," affirms Dr. Prashant Jerath, the founder of Jerath Path Labs. A member of the Indian College of Allergy, Asthma and Applied Immunology, he has been the HOD Immunology and Cancer at Oswal Hospital, Ludhiana. It is his dedication and will power that have made him successful, enabling him now to open a new lab every month.
