What about India's growth story?

There was tremendous optimism that India would grow quite rapidly. Some even believed that it won't be long when the country would touch and might even surpass China. This expectation grew when our growth  touched 8 per cent and our finance minister expected it to go on..adding more percentages as years passes. Finally there was a bubble bursting effect when it fell all the way to 5%. The industrial growth, especially seems to tumble to its lowest. Will FDI help? Will tourism industry bring in some respite? OR will....will will..will and a lot of wills etc.do the needful ? In the mean while Institutions, producing large numbers of educated youths, are unable to provide satisfying jobs or explanations !! Any more optimism left ?? YES I HOPE SO !!

Vasant in Indian Classical Music !

Yes- the air seems to be whispering and encouraging us to welcome the  coming of Vasant. In fact it has already come rather rather quietly ! So it is time to organize an event to welcome it full hearttedly . Like every year -Saibal & Mausam Deb are busy selecting artists from the Indian Classical Music world to glorify the season of spring.So here comes the Vasant Utsav -to be held soon at our venue !! Keep your eyes open for the coming event !!

Classical Music vs Massical Music !

Indian Classical Music, which had been the taste of Mughals,Maharajas, Rajas & Zamindars -has probably lost its flavors with lesser forms of music !!  Times have changed and hence the craving for modern forms of music.  Should we take it- that Indian Classical Music has no takers ?  

Dreams forgotten ?

Most of us have stopped dreaming ! In fact it has become next to impossible to dream- perhaps! Except FEW ! Very FEW ! Hence the only way left  is to watch these dreams being fulfilled in TV Serials & Reality Shows ! Wonder if these  shows, at all ,care to  present these DREAMS  with minimum respect to the helpless viewers along with its  future  consequences !!!  There is also a better side to these shows. It is providing opportunity  to a large number of  artists & otrs. ! Hence-the show must go on !
