The Spirit of the Muse


Book Description

The Spirit of the Muse is an illuminating series of intimate conversations with some of the greatest contemporary classical performers, artists and writers. Presented in this unique collection are rare insights into the creative process and responses to questions such as: Does great personal suffering help produce great art? What are the internal processes that precede the surrender to the moment(s) of creativity? How does one balance the imperatives of structure with spontaneity? What is the role of an audience for an artist? How does he or she respond to critics and criticism? Is it useful to be a "good" human being to be a "good" artist? Does the creation of an enduring work of art compensate for a fear of mortality? Ranged in the book are musicians such as Pandit Ravi Shankar and Yehudi Menuhin together, Zubin Mehta and L. Subramaniam; painters Satish Gujral and Anjolie Ela Menon; sculptors Amarnath Sehgal and K. S. Radhakrishnan; dancers Leela Samson and Mrinalini Sarabhai; filmmakers Adoor Gopalakrishnan and Mrinal Sen; playwright Habib Tanvir; poet Gulzar; and writers Mahasweta Devi and Indira Goswami.




HOTEL ADVENTURES WITH THE STARS


Book Description

What would happen if you got stuck with dreaded Bollywood villains like Gulshan Grover & Ranjeet and they rescue you from being harassed? What would your reaction be if Madhuri Dixit said I Am Sorry to you? As a four-year-old, in the verdant Doon Valley, Aruna would prance about the garden while the great sitar maestro Vilayat Khan would hold his music soirees. At 19, Aruna had Bollywood’s sexiest hero of the time, Sanjay Dutt, say I Love You to her. By the time she began working with hotels Aruna had stars from Bollywood and Hollywood orbiting her galaxy. HOTEL ADVENTURES WITH THE STARS is truly one-of-a-kind autobiography that chronicles several of Aruna's engrossing true encounters with a gamut of celebrities like Hrithik Roshan, Kapil Dev, Jackie Shroff, Dimple Kapadia, Ruskin Bond, Maneka Gandhi, Kiran Bedi, Khushwant Singh and several others. Funny, thrilling and heart-warming in equal measure, Hotel Adventures with the Stars is a collector’s edition Memoir.

Moon Bites


Book Description

Poetry emerged as the primal and primary form of any language and carries the weight of the antiquity of eons. Older than history and as old as any religion, it has evolved through various forms and still stays multi- faceted and multi-coloured. Nothing can teach and guide better than what the aesthetics of poetry could possiblydo. This book is a few strands of such aesthetics that the author has strongly enjoyed and experienced. "My heartiest congratulations...for the thought-provoking gift - Moon Bites" -Padma Vibhushan Dr. Sonal Mansingh Nominated Member of Parliament, Rajya Sabha "It's a brilliant book of poetry that leaves you full of wonder and..... I think everyone should do themselves a favour by picking up a book as delightful as this.” -Mrs. Lakshme Sivachandran Veteran Actress
