http://www.indiralaisram.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
I found the words. Wednesday, June 19, 2013. The din of life in America in the 1920s is so fascinating - the stock markets, fast life, new money, easy virtues and hard partying! Luhrmann has captivated every aspect of that life beyond imagination.

http://www.indiralaisram.com/2014/11/when-modi-came-calling-down-under.html
I found the words. Tuesday, November 25, 2014. When Modi came calling Down Under. Hundreds of Indian Australians descended on Southern Cross station, a major transport hub in Melbourne. As I entered the station, I was transported to a familiar world. The sight, sound and colour of the gathering reminded me of a political rally in India. Excited Modi fans were beating the dhol, some were dancing, some waving the Australian and Indian flags, and some selling Modi t-shirts to eager buyers. Inside the train,...

http://www.indiralaisram.com/2015/07/the-impossible-body.html
I found the words. Monday, July 6, 2015. So there on the steps of the iconic Parliament House in the heart of the city were a motley group of us doing 25 surya namaskars with curious onlookers probably thinking we were out of our minds. Braving the cold we twisted and turned our bodies to the sound of a heavily accented guru who kept yelling ‘eka pada prasarana dan’ (thrust one leg back). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

I found the words. Tuesday, March 11, 2014. A Phenonemon Called AAP. It was George Bernard Shaw, famous Irish playwright and a co-founder of the London School of Economics, who said politics is the last resort of the scoundrel. Perhaps a tailor-made quote for politicians in India? Amitabh Mattoo, Director of the Australia India Institute and Professor of International Relations at the University of Melbourne, says, “The jury is still out on whether the AAP is a zeitgeist of the contemporary history...
