SOVEREIGNTY AND SOCIAL CHANGE IN THE WAKE OF INDIA'S RECENT SODOMY CASES DEEPA DAS ACEVEDO* Abstract: American constitutional law scholars have long questioned whether courts can truly drive social reform, and this uncertainty remains even in the wake of recent landmark decisions affecting the LGBT community. In contrast, court watchers in India-spurred by developments in a special type of legal ac- tion developed in the late 1970s known as public interest litigation (PIL)-have only recently begun to question the judiciary's ability to promote progressive social change. Indian scholarship on this point has veered between despair that PIL cases no longer reliably produce good outcomes for India's most disadvan- taged and optimism that public interest litigation can be returned to its glory days of heroic judicial intervention.

  • The Mozart of Madras
    The Mozart of Madras Ellam Pugazhum iraivanukku. He always starts his speeches with this phrase.The name A.R.Rahman needs no introduction. The man who redefined contemporary Indian music and is the pride of the entire Indian nation and an idol for millions all over the world needs no preamble. But if you happen to be one, still among the few unfortunate souls, who is stranger to him and his heavenly music, then it’s now or never to know this genius whom we Tamilians have given the name “isai puyal”( music tornado). I always tell my friends that if the God of Music had a human form he would undoubtedly be in the form of AR Rahman. He is the man who helped South Indian cinema go national in a way that was considered impossible even a decade ago. He bridged the gap between Tamil (and even Telugu on occasion) and Hindi with that most universal of all languages: music. Predictably Rahman would later say "I hate the discrimination between south, north, Tamil, Hindi. If I represent India that is good enough for me. But we should cross all these barriers." Rahman did more: he made, to use film industry jargon, music a territory in its own right. Thus, the soundtrack of each movie was sold as if it were a separate entity from the film itself. Even though Mani Ratnam latest “Kadal” did not work well at the box-office this did not prevent “Moongil Thottam” or “Nenjukkule” to become big hits. AR Rahman got his breakthrough in the super Tamil hit film Roja directed by the same Mani Ratnam which Rahman consider as his “guru”, in 1992.
