Harkishan Lall 1921-2000
185 In Remembrance In Remembrance Mulk Raj Anand 1905-2004 Mulk – A Dear Friend As I pen this name, Mulk Raj Anand, (Mulk as we called him) a number of images flash across my mind. Was he a man or was he a phenomenon? One thing can be said for certain: he lived his life on his own terms – I wonder why God deprived him of completing his century of life? I had the good fortune of being his personal friend. I cannot remember how it happened but this friendship propelled me into a spate of opportunities to be with him when he met the big and mighty and when he walked to feel the weak and lowly of the society. Whenever he came to Chandigarh, he always found time to turn up in my humble residence, perch himself on his favourite seat in the drawing room, the place of prominence from where he could preside over everybody in the room. Immediately on entering, he would start dilating on the topic he had been ruminating over in his mind, and the knowledge would flow through his vocal chords ceaselessly punctuated with many expletives, and telling everybody how unconcerned they all were about the evils of society and about the lack of positive action on their part. He often asked me, why don’t I write a book on Chandigarh and why don’t I write papers and so on. I did pen a booklet – Chandigarh, a presentation in free verse – and he listened to it with great patience and said ‘we shall publish it via Marg Publications’. -
Revival of Punjabi Cinema - Understanding the Dynamics Dr Simran Sidhu Assistant Professor & Head P.G
Global Media Journal-Indian Edition; Volume 12, Issue 2; December 2020.ISSN:2249-5835 Revival of Punjabi cinema - Understanding the dynamics Dr Simran Sidhu Assistant Professor & Head P.G. Dept. of Journalism and Mass Communication Doaba College, Jalandhar Abstract The Punjabi film industry is currently in its growth stage. The Punjabis in the Diasporas gave a new dimension to the Punjabi identity. It has brought a massive boost in the cinema and film music. Pollywood in the North Indian film industry is commercial and art cinema Punjabi is in its initial stage. Producers target just clientele and seldom take the risk. Crisp comedy films overpower an experiment in production, rare themes and different genres. The research did a descriptive analysis with the support of unstructured and semi- structured interviews of producers, actors, and Pollywood directors. The research also explores the need and importance of film institute and film clubs to sensitize the Punjabi audiences regarding the film as a medium, film grammar, and aesthetics. The research also focused on the marketing trends and the vital role of social media in multiplexes' age. Pollywood also lacks in skills and availability of high-end studios for post-production. Indirect taxes and expensive multiplex as a hindrance to attracting rural audiences to remote areas in Punjab. Keywords: Pollywood, Diasporas, multiplex, approach, revival. Introduction Punjab of North India is the most fertile land it also called Sapta Sindhu in 'Vedas'. Agriculture is the main occupation in Punjab. Hard working Punjabis as community adapt to changing condition and adjust a lot faster than others. A considerable amount of literature and Vedas originated in Punjab. -

“A Mem in the Greenrooms of Colonial Lahore”: an Evaluation of Norah Richards’ Contribution to Modern Punjabi Theatre.1
1 “A mem in the greenrooms of Colonial Lahore”: An Evaluation of Norah Richards’ Contribution to Modern Punjabi Theatre.1 Sakoon N. Singh Abstract: Norah Richards is widely acknowledged to have played a catalyst in the emergence of social realism, as an important strain of Punjabi drama. She has been given the appellation “Lady Gregory of Punjab” and “The grand dame of Punjabi theatre.” My paper, which is part biographical, problematizes the nature of Norah Richards’ contribution, especially with regard to the language politics in colonial Punjab. Her insistence on social realism as a dominant strain in the times of volatile socio- religious reform movements in the state. Her student IC Nanda wrote “Dulhan” which is considered the first modern Punjabi play in 1913 followed by others.My sources are mostly drawn from her personal collection, now with Punjabi University at Patiala. Keywords: Colonial Punjab, Theatre, Norah Richards, Modern Punjabi Theatre When Maharaja Ranjit Singh was shown the map of India indicating the extent of British Indian occupation, marked in red, he shook his head and said “Ik roz sab lal ho jayega : One day it’ll all turn red.” (Singh 1) Part prophecy and part inevitability, Maharaja Ranjit Singh’s prediction was to come true shortly thereafter. After his death in 1839, the Lahore Durbar saw 1 *The essay was written during the author’s tenure as Associate at the Indian Institute of Advanced Study, Shimla in June 2019. The author would like to thank Prof Rajesh Sharma, Department of English, for his help in helping the author access primary material connected with Norah Richards at the Library, Punjabi University, Patiala. -
