LEAD STORY

Himroo Factory, Aurangabad is best known for its UNESCO World Heritage Sites and historical marvels. But dig a little deeper and travellers will be amazed at the rich art heritage that the city has been blessed with. Its handicrafts industry has received Mughal patronage for centuries and its fabrics, especially Himroo, make for souvenirs worth travelling for.

The Story of Himroo Himroo is a beautiful rich fabric made from silk and cotton, grown locally in Aurangabad. The story goes that when Mohammad Tughlaq shifted his capital from Daulatabad to Delhi, many craftsmen and weavers chose to stay back. Over a period of time, these artisans started innovating using local styles and the craft of Himroo flourished. Royal families in those days had entire collections of Himroo with ornate geometrical and floral designs.

The Factory Experience Located in the old city of

UNUSUAL TRIPS

Aurangabad, Maharashtra

Aurangabad, the Himroo Factory is over 150 years old. Travellers can take a closer look at one of the oldest weaving traditions of India where the fabric is moulded in silk. Most Himroo shawls, stoles and sarees that are weaved here have artwork on it that is derived from the carvings inside Ajanta and Ellora caves. The gold and silver threads are hand woven on a special loom by the nimble fingered artists. Remember to take a customised souvenir back with you infused with memories of a very special trip.

Top: Design elements from the carvings found in Ajanta Ellora caves are also weaved onto Himroo; Above: Floral Himroo motif

Belum Caves, Kurnool, Andhra Pradesh For those seeking a break from the rigours of city life, the beautiful and spiritually satisfying Belum Caves in Andhra Pradesh can be the perfect refuge. Located in Belum Village in Kurnool, these caves were known only to locals for the longest time. It was in the late 1990s, that the government of Andhra Pradesh, along with ASI, recognised the archaeological and tourism potential of the place and the caves finally opened to public in 2002.

One of the largest and longest caves in India open to public, these black limestone caves, studded with stalactites and stalagmites are known for their spacious

galleries and winding passages.

The caves were formed due to a stream of underground water that cut through this

21

terrain and continuously deposited limestone for many centuries. The deepest point in this cave lies 151 feet below the Earth’s surface.

Visitors have to climb down a steep staircase, with railings on either side to enter an underground chamber filled with intricate wall carvings, natural sculptures and breathtaking rock formations.

ASI has discovered many pre-Buddhist-era vessels and tools here, which act as evidence to show that a wide range of people, including monks, lived and meditated in these ancient caves.

Highlights of the cave include the three fascinating sinkholes (cavernous depression found mostly in limestone caves) in the Belum caves that can delight geologists and tourists alike.

Malgudi Tour,

Mysuru, Karnataka

For those still enchanted with the quaint fictional town of Malgudi, there is a special tour in Mysuru that promises to bring alive those charming characters of RK Narayan’s classic. You can literally walk (or cycle) down memory lane here as the tour takes you through some of the lovely landmarks that inspired RK Narayan’s fictitious town.

From the many colonial structures that found mention in the series to a quaint, open-to-sky Malgudi Cafe, a stroll through the streets and conversations with the people will easily remind bibliophiles of the many idiosyncrasies that were unique to the people of Malgudi.

The highlight of this tour is a visit to the RK Narayan museum in Yadavagiri, Mysuru. The legendary author’s beautiful home, where he lived for many years and wrote the popular Malgudi collection of short series, has been converted into a museum that now houses furniture, clothes, manuscripts, photographs and other memorabilia that recreate the magic of that bygone era. A section dedicated to quotes by the writer is a big hit with fans of Malgudi seeking to relive the era of old world charm.

Coakers Walk, Kodaikanal, Tamil Nadu Kodaikanal in Tamil means ‘gift of the forests’ and true to its name is one of the most beautiful hill stations in the Nilgiris. Lush thick forests, tranquil lakes and gently sloping landscape along with a pleasant climate makes Kodaikanal a charming retreat for the solitary soul. And one of its best kept secrets is the Coakers Walk, a path constructed by a British officer Lt Coaker when he was stationed here in 1872.

Coaker’s Walk is a narrow pedestrian walkway, about 2km long that runs along the edge of the beautiful Nilgiri hills. Since no vehicles are allowed here, the winding route that overlooks the vast blue expanse of the hills is a great place to relax and soak in panoramic views. Benches have been put along the route for visitors to sit and feast their eyes on the wonders of nature where the blue green tinted hills meet

a powder blue sky in the distant horizon. An observatory with a telescope has also been built for travellers to enjoy the beautiful view. During the monsoon season, a thin layer of mist engulfs the entire place giving it a lovely romantic aura. On a clear, sunny summer day, the walk provides to its visitors clear sights of Dolphin’s nose, the Pambar river valley, Periyakulam and even the town of Madurai.

CITY GUIDE

The Enchanting City Hyderabad is a place with richly diverse cultural heritage and vibrant ethos.

Charminar The Nizams have endowed Hyderabad with many landmark buildings, including the Charminar, the Salarjung Museum, the Falaknuma Palace and the Qutb Shahi Tombs. Charminar is the landmark of Hyderabad. The four minarets carved with lotus buds and petals and the central structure, soaring to a height of 180 ft makes it an architectural jewel of the city. It is said to be built as a charm to ward off a deadly epidemic raging at that time. The four graceful minarets soar to a height of 48.7 m above the ground.

Salar Jung Museum

Golconda Fort

Nawab Mir Yousuf Ali Khan popularly known as Salar Jung III is better known for his passion for acquiring art objects. In 1914, after relinquishing the post of Prime Minister to the Nizam VII, he devoted rest of his life in collecting and enriching the treasures of art and literature till he lived. The precious and rare art objects collected by him for a period of over forty years, are showcased in the Salar Jung Museum. The third largest museum of India and single largest one-man collection, it was established in 1951.

Originally a mud fort, the first three Qutb Shahi kings rebuilt Golconda, over a span of 62 years. Used as the residential palace of the Nizams, Golconda had several gardens, lakes, palaces, horse and elephant stables and the famous Fateh Rahben gun, one of the cannons used in the last siege of Golconda by Aurangzeb, to whom the fort ultimately fell.

The unique Sound & Light Show takes you right back in time, when Golconda was full of life, glory and grandeur.

The tombs are built in Persian, Pathan and Hindu architectural styles using grey granite, with stucco ornamentation, the only one-of-its-kind in the world where an entire dynasty has been buried at one place.

Ramoji Film City Established by Indian film

producer Ramoji Rao in 1996, the film city is the world’s largest movie studio complex and is situated at an hours drive from Hyderabad. Plenty of movies, TV serials and commercials are produced here annually.

Hussain Sagar Lake, Excavated in 1562 AD by Hussain Shah Wali, the lake was built on a tributary of the River Musi to meet the water and irrigation needs of the city. One of the world’s tallest

Chowmahalla Palace Built by Nizam Salabat Jung in the 1750s, the palace was restored by traditional craftsmen using a range of elements to uphold the heritage of these structures. The name of the palace is made of two words ‘Chow’ meaning four palaces in Urdu and ‘Mahalat’ which is the plural of ‘Mahalel’ or palaces.

The silk scarves from Aina Mehta’s Creative Bee have been recognised by UNESCO for conservation of heritage.

When in Hyderabad, buying a gadwal saree is must. The saree is named after a village in Mahboobnagar. The weavers of this village weave the body of the saree in cotton while the borders and pallu are woven in pure silk with pure zari designs.

You can also pick the well-known Maheshwari cottons, pochampally and ikat weaves while in the city.

Exotic hand-printed kalamkari fabrics are also among the priced possessions from Hyderabad.

Situated next to the Charminar is the historical market of Laad Bazaar known for shops selling perfumes, textiles and jewellery. Its speciality is hand-

crafted lac bangles embellished with colourful stones. There are a number of stores across a kilometre-long stretch that sell a vast and colourful collection of stuff such as semi-precious stones, pearls and saris. Another

must-visit place is Shilparamam (The Arts & Crafts Village) where artisans from all over the country exhibit their talent. Begum Bazar, the biggest commercial market in the city, also offers a fascinating range of products.

Hyderabad and Secunderabad are twin cities, separated by Hussain Sagar, a man-made lake made during the time of Ibrahim Qutb Shah in 1562.

For the Foodie Hyderabadi food is a blend of traditional cuisines.

Think fiery hot curries and it reminds you of Andhra or Telangana food.

Hyderabadi cuisine is a blend of traditional South Indian, Mughal, and Persian cuisine. Hyderabadi biryani is an iconic dish of the region. Some popular food chains have also opened in the area that cater to continental food. For Hyderabadi biryani, visit Shadab from Charminar or Sarvi from Khairtabad.

You can also take a trip to Paradise for some delicacies in case you are in the vicinity of Secunderabad, the twin city. Paradise is also know for chicken 65 (a dish distinctive to Hyderabad cuisine) and round off your meal with the iconic double ka meetha or khubani ka meetha. Nowhere else in the country will you find these two rich desserts.

If you are fond of meat, try the pathar ka gosht, slivers of boneless meat cooked on a hot stone. This again is a dish unique to Hyderabad and goes back to the good old days.

The area of Charminar offers scrumptious delicacies. From gold coins (round bread stuffed with chicken), kebabs, chicken on a stick, spicy fried fish, patthar ka gosht (meat marinated overnight and slow-cooked over a stone), nalli paya with sheermal, mirchi bajji and of course haleem, there is a great variety available in the area apart from the world famed Hyderabadi biryani.

umbai, apart from being the financial capital of India offers a number of attractive tourism experiences. The Art-deco buildings of Mumbai along with the Elephanta caves are UNESCO world heritage sites and other attractions include Art Galleries, Museums, Marine Drive, Gateway of India, Chaupati beach and of course, among several other things the glittering Bollywood world. But amidst the glitz of the economic capital of India, lies a lesser-known group of Buddhist Caves called Kanheri.

While local citizens in Mumbai are aware of this absolutely stunning site, most tourists visiting the city often end up going to the Elephanta caves but are not aware or have even heard of the Kanheri Caves which hold immense potential for tourism in Mumbai.

Caves & Geological Heritage Below the Tropic of Cancer, the geological formation of the Deccan Plateau is rather fascinating and is defined with the layering of igneous rock soil and caves that have inspired patrons since ancient times to commission series of rock-cut cave architecture in the Deccan region. These include the caves of Ajanta, Ellora, Aurangabad, Saptaparni, Barabar, Karle, Pandavelini, Jan-Feb 2019

Kanheri Caves are 29 km from Mumbai.

Badami, Mamallapuram among several others.

The Kanheri Caves Situated in the Sanjay Gandhi National Park in Borivali, the site presents the largest collection of cave excavations on a single hill (numbering almost 90 caves).

Like the early caves at Ajanta, the Kanheri caves date back as early as 3rd century BC but unlike Ajanta (whose glorious period ends by 7th century AD) the Kanheri caves seem to have been in use until 11th century AD. Among the several imperial patron rulers linked with the site, the most significant were the Deccan rulers Satvahanas (2nd century BC to the 1st century AD).

The Satvahanas, as per some historians, were one of the first to have exhibited statecraft like institutions in the Deccan, and some factors that contributed to the vibrancy and their patronage of Kanheri were factors that were ecological, the rise of the agricultural economy, traditional knowledge of craftsmanship, the distinct evolution of trade links and religious movements.

Like Ajanta and Ellora, the Kanheri site has sculptures, paintings, and architecture.

There are impressive chaityas (prayer halls) with pillars and vaulted roofs, stupas, and friezes of the Buddha along with viharas (places to stay for Buddhist monks).

The Kanheri Caves differ from the caves of Ajanta in

features such as an amazing system of hydraulic engineering with cisterns found in several caves and an aspect unique to this site is the existence of a funerary space.

The Hydraulic Heritage Kanheri developed its own peculiarities like a welldeveloped water system, its own agricultural land, satellite settlements and resources for subsistence. There are watercisterns provided at the entrance of almost every cave in Kanheri.

An inscription also mentions the

construction of a dam to maintain the water resources.

The Importance of Caves The most important feature of the site is a recall value of its links with economic heritage reflecting trade networks within India along with those outside.

The most important reason was its proximity to important ports like Sopara that had trade links with the West including Greece.

Archaeologists have recovered artifacts such as Greek ivory combs from this area. A number of inscriptions found at the site

describe and testify complex human networks of castes, merchant guilds and also refer to sources of donations for the site. With over 50 inscriptions, the narratives are the testimony of endless aspirations on the horizons of the Arabian Sea in the Indian Ocean. Late Dr MN Deshpande, former Director General of the Archaeological Survey of India and an authority on the cave architectural sites in the Deccan, believed that the Kanheri caves were one of the richest sites for epigraphic inscriptions evident in multiple ancient languages which include Prakrit, Pali, and Brahmi.

The site served as a retreat for mendicants and space for travellers to acquire spiritual protection against dangers in a journey known as eight perils (Ashtobhaya) for which one gets evidence from sculptural compositions. These are attacks by wild elephants, lions, robbers, serpents, captivity, demons/evil spirits, shipwreck and conflagration.

Scholars have explored and conjectured regarding the role of Buddhist establishments with trade and commerce.

He explains, Buddhist establishments became the platform to bring together all agencies which were involved in exchange including the state agency in a broad sense. The function of each Buddhist establishment was different according to its location, ecological setting, and trade link. These establishments have also been used for resting, repairing or changing carriers.

What to look out for Cave 3, the Chaitya Cave, is the most visited and documented cave

at the site. Perceived as a Buddhist temple, it is beautiful and majestic, the largest and most remarkable of all the caves at Kanheri. This west-facing cave temple has a spacious courtyard in the front, where the entrance is through a gateway in a low parapet wall.

This low wall is decorated with an animal frieze at the base and ornamental rail pattern above. The entrance is guarded by dvarpalas.

Cave 2 is a vihara (place for monks to stay) with three stupas confined in separate chambers. The 3rd stupa of the cave is an elaborate sculptural scheme with rows of seated Buddhas. Cave number 41 has dramatic sculptures of two

standing Buddha figures and the eleven headed Avalokiteshvara (compassionate Buddha).

According to a Buddhist legend, Avalokiteshvara transformed into an eleven-headed form with multiple arms to help a large number of people suffering in the world. India, as an experience, is just so immeasurable, like the coiled kundalini that it keeps uncoiling endlessly and one life is not enough to know this expression of human history.

One has to understand the symbolism of the site of Kanheri caves, and then come back into the organised chaos of the city of Mumbai.

They chose to go in for a spring-inspired lemon elderflower cake that was covered in buttercream and decorated with fresh flowers that included fresh peonies and roses. A slice of the cake was served to the guests along with edible rose petals.

While this seemed quite unique, in reality there are several species of flowers that are edible and hence used commonly in cooking. They find their way into salads, soups, main courses, desserts and even cocktails.

Integral to Indian cuisine While rose, hibiscus, jasmine, marigold, neem flowers and banana flowers are quite common in Indian cuisine; carnations, lavender, tulip petals, primrose and English daisy are yet other flowers that are edible.

“Edible flowers are a great way of adding colour, style and extra flavour to your dishes” says Chef Rajinder Sareen, Executive Sous Chef, Sheraton Grand Bangalore.

Flowers have been used in cooking from ancient times, especially in Indian cuisine.

With a whole world of goodness packed into them, the flowers of white Hibiscus, Moringa Oleifera (Drumstick flowers) and Roselle (Gongura flowers) are used in teas, chutneys, curries and dal prepared at home. “One of the most popular flowers used across India are banana flowers that lend itself to multiple preparation styles depending on the region where it is cooked. Neem flowers are used in a popular festive drink in Telangana and Karnataka called Ugadi pachadi - a refreshing drink that helps the body to transit from winters to summers,” says Chef Varun, Executive Chef Novotel Hyderabad Airport.

Modern culinary preparations Some of the popular flowers that are used in contemporary cooking are linaria, pansy, nasturtiums, voila, cornflower and snapdragons. Flowers like sunflower petals and papaya blossom are used in salads while carnations can be steeped in

wine, candy and used as cake decoration. Marigold petals too are versatile in terms of use.

They are added to soups, pasta or rice dishes, herb butters, and even salads. “Every single part of the lavender flower is edible right from its bud to its stem.

versatile properties. The flower yields abundant nectar from which bees make honey. Often the herb rosemary is replaced with lavender for baking breads,” says Chef Rayomund Pardiwalla, Executive Chef, Gokulam Grand Hotel and Spa.

Bitters and cocktails Edible flowers are popular in cocktails and mocktails too. They are also used in the preparation of bitters which are essentially a concentrated liquid extraction of various parts of the plant including its flower. They are used to flavour cocktails. “We use the flower and herb of rosemary to make a cocktail called ‘Rosemary Land’. The natural pungent smell that rosemary has, makes this cocktail very popular. Elderflower is also used in a cocktail called ‘Summer Redefined’ due to the innate herbal flavour it possesses on top of the floral notes” says Prathik Shetty, founding partner, The Reservoire. While jasmine flowers are used in a hopbased bitter, hibiscus is used in beetroot bitters.

Health benefits and dos and don’ts Edible flowers too pack an immense amount of goodness in them and many of them have considerable nutritional value. Flowers specially with deeper colours, are very high in antioxidants. They also contain Vitamin A, C and E. “Lavender is a very soothing flower whose

Hibiscus is good for blood pressure issues and helps maintain cholesterol levels apart from being good for the digestive system There are few things to keep in mind while using edible flowers.

Before using any of the edible flowers, clean them thoroughly by dipping them in water. It is advised

45

that they are not subjected to high heat or cooking, minimal cooking or blanching can be done to enhance the colour of the flowers.

Ideal is to rest the flowers in an ice bath to retain its crispness and freshness. “Banana flowers need to be cleaned properly with oily fingers otherwise you end up with sticky fingers. Take out the banana florets and keep them in thin buttermilk to avoid change in colour” says Chef Sahil Ratta, Sous Chef, XOOX Brewmill.

All in all, the key is to keep the dish or drink simple so that flavour or essence of the flower is not over powered.

New Wave of Upcycling

www.trujetter.com

Do Clothes have an Afterlife?

Every season, you opt for new outfits and then you think they go out of fashion. It is not always that way. All the outfits you buy have an afterlife. If something doesn’t fit you or is stained then it can be refashioned. Yes, that is right, refashioning is a new rage in the fashion industry. The term that is used for this process is ‘upcycling.’ It is the way of processing an item to make it better than the original and of course, wearable.

Refashioning of cloth can be done both with pre-consumer and post-consumer waste.

Karishma Shahani Khan, founder Ka-Sha Studio feels, “Upcycling is important to give pre-loved clothing or used materials a new lease of life. Value addition to materials perceived as unusable

in their current state is the basic essence of upcycling. It is vital to ensure that materials and products do not just end up in landfills but are used as much as possible.”

The process of upcycling helps to reuse the material, such as scraps of upholstery, vintage gems and worn-out apparels in a creative and innovative way.

“Upcycling allows designers to find more contemporary and desirable solutions to use this waste. Upcycling allows us to strike a balance between producing and reusing,” says Kriti Tula, creative director of upcycledonly brand Doodlage.

Repeating is not a Sin People from all walks of life are showing an interest in repeating their outfits. They do not shy away from wearing the same outfit but with a twist, at various events.

The Cannes 2018 saw Hollywood actress Cate Blanchett repeating her Armani Prive Gown that she wore for an award function in Los Angeles in 2014. Actresses in Bollywood are also seen following

“With the focus of fashion on the idea of sustainability a lot of people are becoming more conscious. The possibilities are endless with upcycled fashion.

Inspiration and material can come from anywhere to result in something that is functional and aesthetically appealing,” says team Karishma.

Ace-designers Abraham & Thakore have been creating outfits by piecing together waste fabrics with traditional techniques like patchwork or kantha. One of their eveningwear collections used sequins made from discarded hospital x-rays and film. “With millennials increasingly re-defining the luxury market, many fast-fashion brands will be propelled to start small sustainable lines and luxury brands will be convinced to change their ways of production and fabric choices,” adds Kriti.

Designers today are giving a luxurious twist to second-hand clothing. They are repurposing them to appeal to the socially conscious but fashion-forward consumer.

She runs a health-care NGO, Pratyusha Support which offers treatment and medical help to deprived children and women in need.

Just like any other actor, Samantha also entered the industry with lots of hopes and insecurities. But she is happy that she is not the girl she was when she started acting. “Cinema, my work, was my world. I couldn’t see beyond it. It engulfed me,” she adds.

Yet, I believe this is the best phase of my life; I’m choosing projects that challenge the actor in me. Over these years, I’ve learned to let go of insecurities.

On being asked what she looks for in the films she choose, she said, “I don’t categorise films that way. I just choose the kind of roles I would like to watch in theatres.

Initially, I used to be concerned about my ‘looks’, ‘likeability’, ‘saleability’, and so on. But, in the last two years, I have only done films that make me happy. It’s important to strike a balance, and I am in my own space without being a part of the rat race.”

Samantha puts her life and soul in all her projects but Mahanati was very special to her.

She feels, “It’s not because of my character, but because of Savitri amma. The film left an impact that will stay in people’s minds for a long time, and I’ll never forget the experience of shooting the climax scene. I had goosebumps.”

The Philosophical Side Samantha feels that lots of

things have changed since she joined the industry. When asked about it, she adds, “Many people tell you many things, and it confuses you to the extent that you destroy yourself.

Slowly, you realise that there’s space for everyone. That’s the beauty of the industry. Once you understand your place is secure, your path becomes clear.

Unfortunately, you don’t get that assurance as a newbie.” She goes on to add that success and failure do not last too long, ‘as you are as good or as bad as your last film’. The actress feels that the moment a film becomes a hit, one becomes a star, and when it flops, one becomes irrelevant. “It’s all about taking calculated risks and seeing how things pan out,” she asserts.

All the Way Up The U-Turn (2018) actress has steadily made her way to the top.

She says, “I always knew that I would not settle for anything mediocre. I knew that I would strive for excellence.” Samantha never gave much thought to where she might be 5 or 10 years later, instead she just kept working hard. She signs off by saying, “I’m proud of every film I’ve done, whether it’s the hits, the flops or the blockbusters; every film I did has taught me something. I’m proud of every decision I’ve made because I was a certain person while I was doing that film and it has become a part of my growth.”

Beauty in

Imper manence Celebrating the transient nature of things, here is a look at various art forms that are painstakingly created by people. From the clay idol structures that are designed lovingly by artisans and then submerged during visarjan; flower/rice decoration (rangolis) that take hours to make only to blow away by the evening; street art/grafitti on Indian walls and Mandala art form which is wiped out in an elaborate Buddhist ritual, there is a beauty in things that are transient in nature.

Images: SURESH N DUTT

Mandala A spiritual and ritual symbol in Hinduism and Buddhism, representing the Universe, Mandala art is a form of meditation on impermanence (a central teaching of Buddhism). After days or weeks of creating the intricate pattern of a sand mandala, the sand is brushed together into a pile and spilled into a body of running water to spread the blessings of the mandala.
