  • Meher Baba Text Section 26-4-06
    Preface When Meher Baba and me was first published I expected to be addressing a Baba lover audience exclusively. It turned out that a number of relatives and friends who were not Baba lovers liked the book very much and the lack of knowledge regarding Baba’s Life or ‘Cosmology’ didn’t seem to matter. This was a lovely surprise! For those readers who might want to know more about Baba, I’d like to recommend this unusual, amazing web site: http://www.meherbabadnyana.net/life_eternal/Life_Eternal.html Of course Googling Meher Baba will bring up dozens of interesting sites – but this one is quite special. Author’s contact: [email protected] Purchase book: Sheriar Foundation Bookstore 807 34th Ave. S. North Myrtle Beach, SC 29582 USA http://www.sheriarbooks.org/ Free ebook on-line: http://www.meherbabaandme.com/ ***Dear Jim, It just goes to show that it is possible to cross the Californian with the Aussie and come up with a winner! Your book makes life with Baba feel very real and immediate. We have both read it and enjoyed it immensely. It is full of good things and we are so grateful that you have gone to all the trouble to share them with us. Tian knows how much is involved (as she has published her Chinese translation of Discourses). We hope you can come up this way before long and drink some Queensland red with us. Jai Baba! Geoff and Tian ***By chance this is the second time I saw your name in a week so I decided to read your book.

His film Gulabo Sitabo was supposed to release in theatres on April 17. 2020 ; however, it was directly streamed to homes from 12 June 2020 . Amazon gave him “a big release” in 200 countries . His film had 15 dubbed versions and subtitles in several languages such as Indonesian, Hebrew and Polish. “We are going directly to the audience,” he says. “It’s not going to take away from what the film is all about .” The city, says Sircar, is one of the many characters in the film. “The film is soaked in the old Lucknow ” he adds. It is shot in actual locations, Hazratganj and Chowk areas. A devout fan of Satyajit Ray, Shoojit stayed at Hotel Clarion, the same place the great auteur had stayed in when shooting Shatranj Ke Khiladi. “It is always great to be inspired by him,” he says .

It is a critical-historical account of the transitional era, roughly from 1998 to 2018, and examines practices and decisions taken ‘on the ground’ by film sound recordists, editors, designers and mixers. My work explores the histories and genealogies of the transition by analysing the individual, as well as collective, aesthetic concerns of film workers migrating from the celluloid to the digital age. My inquiry aimed to explore linkages between the digital turn and shifts in production practices, notably sound recording, sound design and sound mixing. The study probes the various ways in which these shifts shaped the aesthetics, styles, genre conventions, and norms of image-sound relationships in Indian cinema in comparison with similar practices from Euro-American film industries.
