Remembering Manna Dey

What: ‘Zindagi kaisi hai paheli haye, Kabhi toh hasaye, kabhi yeh rulaye’…

This alluring song from the famous film “Anand” reverberates in our mind even today. Bollywood’s legendary singer Manna Dey has immortalised many such songs. In honour of his 99th birthday, if you want to get a feel of his undying lyrical pieces, you might want to attend the upcoming event. His popular semi-classical songs and romantic duets will be performed live by Anil Sambhor and Baani.  What could be a better way to honour the maestro?

Life as a circus

What: A painter, using his paintbrush as a ‘weapon’, portrays the prevailing ironies and dichotomies of the Indian society.
