Children singing inside the bus-cum-music room | Photo Credit: Special Arrangement It’s not unusual to hear classical tunes from inside a yellow bus parked in the leafy bylanes of Napean Sea Road. Step inside and what you see is a brightly lit classroom with colourful posters. The students are children from the slums of Shimla Nagar in Napean Sea Road. Conducted twice a week, The Sound Space on Wheels is a bus that navigates through the slums of Mumbai to teach Indian classical music to the children who live there. This unique venture by Mumbai-based sisters Kamakshi and Vishala Khurana...
A Genuine Tour De Force That Has Nary A Blemish
Payal Kapadia’s All We Imagine As Light is all that we imagined it would be – a deceptively simple, wonderfully tender, uncannily terse (despite its nearly two-hour runtime) and deeply human study of the workaday struggles of outsiders in a city that never sleeps, where repose is an elusive thing. So, more than dreams, Mumbai drowns people in the illusions that it thrives on. All We Imagine As Light, a story of thwarted loves, dashed aspirations, stolen moments of fulfilment and manifestations of suppressed urges, is crafted with an unfailing eye for detail, shot and edited masterfully, embellished with a...

Nirmala Rajasekar and Sandip Chatterjee | Photo Credit: Special Arrangement The Saraswati veena epitomises India’s ancient classical music while the santoor is inextricably linked to the folk tradition of Kashmir. Bringing these two instruments together on stage could be a novel idea. The U.S.-based vainika Nirmala Rajasekar and Kolkata-based santoor artiste Sandip Chatterjee attempted this rare jugalbandi recently in India before embarking on their current America tour. Together they make music with 100 strings — santoor’s 93 (Sandip removed seven strings from the 100-stringed instrument) and veena’s seven strings. Nirmala, a ninth generation veena exponent, shared how exciting this musical...
Moderately Engaging Film That Struggles With Inconsistent Pace
Cricket and marriage get into an awkward tangle in Mr & Mrs Mahi, a sports melodrama that hinges on action on the field of play and plenty of reaction off it, mostly in the realms of a relationship that runs into tricky terrain. The Sharan Sharma-directed film is about sport but it segues into a tale of marital discord when thwarted ambitions collide with suppressed emotions. The narrative is unusual to say the least but the treatment is devoid of any major departures from norm. A man who has never had it easy resolves to help his wife revive and...
