What if she hadn’t returned with him to Ayodhya, only to be later discarded to ‘preserve his honour’? Until one day Sage Vishwamitra arrives and shows her who she might have been had she not met Rama – Bhumika, a queen who defies convention.

Download or read book You Ask I Tell written by Hansa Wadkar and published by Zubaan. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise to stardom and tragic fall of one of the heroines of Indian film. Hansa Wadkar (born Ratan Bhalchandra) was one of Maharashtra’s best known stage and screen personalities. By the time she was married — to a much older family friend and impresario when she was just 15 — she had already starred in nine or ten movies and was becoming a name in the film world. Supporting her family on her earnings, her brother sick with malaria, and both parents having taken to drink, life was not easy for the young woman. But Hansa was not only beautiful and immensely talented, she was tough, wilful, capricious and headstrong. Her autobiography, Sangtye Aika published in 1970 and translated into English here for the first time, created a sensation for its frankness and boldness. It was later made into a film, Bhumika, by the legendary director Shyam Benegal and starred Smita Patil in the title role. Published by Zubaan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book evokes the romance of the rugged desert kingdom of Bikaner and its Rajput royal family. It is a richly woven tapestry encompassing five generations of an aristocratic family's past and present. Tales of valour, battles and coronations, the splendour of the royal courts, the culture and traditions that made this Rathore state preeminent in the world, all set against the backdrop of imposing palaces, rugged forts and hunting lodges, the magnificence of the gilded age of the Maharajas. The author describes her formative years during the sixties when seismic changes in the world were taking place and which were to take her on an adventurous journey from her home in Bikaner to life in London. The author brings to life a treasure trove of anecdotes and introduces us to a world of elegance, sportsmanship and cosmopolitan culture.

Book excerpt: The Burden Of Refuge Tells The Story Of The Sindhi Hindus Of Gujarat Beginning With Colonial Sindh And Tracing The Socio-Political Dynamics Of The Pre-Partition Days. Through Personal Narratives, Kothari Brings To Life The Story Of Various Sindhis As They Migrate To India And Begin Their Process Of Resettlement. She Delineates The Contexts That Made An Atypical Community Like The Sindhis Re-Modify Themselves To Suit More Textbook Notions Of Gujarati Bourgeois Society. In Their Desire To Assimilate With India (Especially Gujarat), The Sindhis Gained Much, But Also Suffered Many Losses. Though Sindhis Have Risen From The Ashes Of Partition As A Model Immigrant Community, The Sufi Syncreticism That Informed Their Former Life Has Been Tragically Damaged And They Have Also Suffered The Loss Of Their Language. In Gujarat, These Losses Are Accompanied With A Desire To Become Proper Hindus By Adopting A More Monolithic Hindu Identity And By Denying Their Sindhiness . Using Intergenerational Voices And Combining History With Personal Narratives, Kothari S Book Examines The Phenomena Of Psychological Violence During And After Partition, And Explores A Different Facet Of Partition Studies. Going Beyond Partition Studies, This Book Also Makes An Important Contribution To The Area Of Identity Politics In Contemporary India. This Multidisciplinary Study Is Relevant To Everyone Interested In India S Past And Present.
