With her boundless energy and unbreakable spirit, she transformed the dance stage into a canvas for courage, beauty, and social change. Through her unforgettable and captivating dance-dramas rooted in religion and mythology such as Devi Durga, Draupadi, Indradhanush, Mukti, and Manavata, she has redefined Indian classical traditions, weaving art with pressing contemporary concerns. Her art speaks a universal language that transcends boundaries, explained through expressive hand gestures, eye and neck movements in a graceful, flowing dance. A ZigZag Mind captures Sonal Mansingh’s thoughts on ecology, sacred Gods, symbols and rivers, and on dance, movement, and expression—the hallmarks of Mansingh’s unusual life.”

AGENDA AND IDEOLOGIES: THOUGHTS ON CONGRESS, COMMUNISM, FASCISM AND OTHERS
0₹495.00About the Book
Agenda and Ideologies: Thoughts on Congress, Communism, Fascism & Others encapsulates Indian society from the days when even a telephone without a dial was a luxury to the Internet revolution and modern communication. From the 1955 flirtation with socialism that stymied India’s economic growth, to its jettisoning in 1991, ushering in liberalism, Prafull Goradia has been a witness to it all. The journey from Nehruvian politics to Modism—the reframing of West Asian relations by rapprochement with UAE and Israel, the Ayodhya saga of Babri Masjid and Ram Mandir, the rise and fall of Marxism and Fascism in the world, a new dawn for women in the armed forces and the deductive logic of Abrahamic faiths versus the inductive logic of Hinduism—Goradia’s range of discourse leaves the reader spellbound. The book is a bird’s eye view from someone who has grown up in the dawn of Independence and provides incisive insight into the last seven decades of free India.

AMITABH BACHCHAN AS THE OTHER
0₹495.00About the Book
‘Amitabh Bachchan As The Other’ by Shoma A Chatterji is not a biographical study of the actor. Beyond the persistent ‘angry young man’ label, Chatterji contends that Bachchan’s cinematic prowess defies stereotypes, aligning him more closely with the intriguing concept of ‘The Other.’ This ‘Other’ challenges norms, demands our attention, holds us responsible for our actions, and prompts a reconsideration of our understanding of the world. To substantiate this thesis, Chatterji meticulously examines fifteen of Bachchan’s classic performances spanning two decades, from Anand to Agneepath. The other films in this study include Parwana, Zanjeer, Saudagar, Namak Haram, Abhimaan, Deewaar, Sholay, Amar Akbar Anthony, Don, Muqaddar Ka Sikandar, Shakti, Coolie, and Main Azaad Hoon. In the chapter titled ‘Othering the Other,’ we witness a mellow Bachchan embracing roles he never thought possible in his youth.
