| Summary, etc | The Manchester University stint of extra-mural courses gave the author enough confidence in visual and performing arts and communications: compounded in a contemporary language. His first chronicle, Indian Performing Arts, came out in 1992. The book thankfully went into multiple editions and reprints. It was also embellished with Padma Vibhushan RK Laxman's delightfully inferential cartoons.<br/><br/>Then further sequels followed: Indian Performing Arts: A Mosaic (2006) and Millennium Glimpses of Indian Performing Arts (2007). The fourth to appear was Vignettes of Indian Performing Arts (2013) in two volumes, covering drama, dance, dance-drama, music, puppetry, narrative arts, festivals and miscellany: just to give an idea of it he intended coverage.<br/><br/>The present book - the fifth and perhaps the final sequel - is restricted to dance, dance-drama, festivals of dance and music, and drama. This is because the most innovative works seemed to be done in these areas, speaking in a comparative vein. The best of the national fruits of thought appeared invariably to be routed to the capital and be in the national melting pot. So, to be in the viewer's arena here was deemed to be an advantage, rather than a drawback .<br/><br/>The other distinctive reason to limit the scope was to concentrate on the background of the performance acts being done. Considerable time was chosen to be devoted on research so that' for once. the perspective of the artistic work clearly emerged. These research-efforts have been widely appreciated and many were reportedly made collectors' items Hence the endeavour to put them together: with full illustrative potential.<br/><br/>He planned and executed, for DD Archives, a set of DVDs on Tagore's memorable songs and provided full texts for 53 episodes of Bharat: Ek Khoj by Shyam Benegal for their 14 DVDs. On Indian puppetry, his collaborative books are: Indian Puppets (2006), Indian Puppetry &Puppet Stories (2007), and Puppets of India and the World (2014). His current works are: Luminous Harmony: Indian Art & Culture (2011), Rainbow Rhymes of Tagore for children in four volumes (Sahitya Akademi, 2011), Tagore-nama (2011), Tagore's Mystique of Dance (2011) and Tagore's dance-drama Omnibus (2012). He has done trilingual translations: Mystic Songs of Tagore, Romantic Songs of Tagore and Patriotic Songs of Tagore (2012-13). In fact, having completed 7 books on Tagore within his 150th Birth commemoration year, he earned "All-India Record" from Limca Book of Records (2013). He was awarded Senior Fellowship from Government of India 2007-09, for working on A journey with the Buddha (2010. 2-volume). He was "Chief Coordinator" for the official "Leaders of India" project under Prasar Bharati. for collecting audio & video-holdings on Mahatma Gandhi. Jawaharlal Nehru. Indira Gandhi & Rajiv Gandhi. for archiving and eventually creating an Interactive Website in 2010. He was made "Tagore Research Scholar" under the prestigious Tagore National Fellowship" for A-V cultural archives at IGNCA in 2012-14. He was awarded Padma Shri in 2009 by President of India. |
