  • STUDY on the IMPACT of CREATIVE LIBERTY USED in INDIAN HISTORICAL SHOWS and MOVIES H S Harsha Kumar HOD, Department of Journalis
    INTERNATIONALJOURNAL OF MULTIDISCIPLINARYEDUCATIONALRESEARCH ISSN:2277-7881; IMPACT FACTOR :6.514(2020); IC VALUE:5.16; ISI VALUE:2.286 Peer Reviewed and Refereed Journal: VOLUME:10, ISSUE:1(4), January :2021 Online Copy Available: www.ijmer.in STUDY ON THE IMPACT OF CREATIVE LIBERTY USED IN INDIAN HISTORICAL SHOWS AND MOVIES H S Harsha Kumar HOD, Department of Journalism, Government First Grade College Vijayanagar, Bangalore Introduction Historical references in movies, shows are the latest trends in the entertainment industry. In India there are more than 150 movies and 40 T.V shows approximately produced on the historical events and records. Many of these produced by the various makers to retell the tales of glory and valour of India’s great heroes do provide justice to the heroes to some extent. Authentic and accurate depictions for the sake of knowledge or even getting the glimpses of the history is not the outcome of these shows or movies. Various inconsistencies, differences and various inaccuracies regarding the script, scenes and execution, laymen are often misdirected towards concepts. The idea of creative liberty or artistic license used by the writers to make the best of the historical references provided may cause discrepancies or irregularities difficult to accept by the people or some intellectuals. But, to demand accuracy and authenticity from the Indian historical is, for its fans, to miss the point. The genre, after all, is that the descendant of Indian traditions of myth, folklore, ballads and popular history, which have combined to inform us more about an imagined past than an actual one.

  • Capt Amarinder Singh Leads from the Front V Extends Lockdown to Tame Killer Virus V Clamps Curfew for Smooth Wheat Procurement
    Let us join hands in fighting COVID-19. A few days of caution and co - operation can save us from a lifetime of regret. We owe it to ourselves and our children to take all precautions against the deadly virus. My government is depending on you to help us take Punjab out of this cri - sis. And you can, in turn, depend on us to ensure that you do not face unnecessary hardship in getting timely medical help and access to es - sential goods and services during this difficult period Capt Amarinder Singh Chief Minister, Punjab 2 Punjab Advance April-2020 Editorial Capt Amarinder Singh stands tall as a true leader in these trying times. Like a true fauji the Punjab Chief Minister played the role of a perfect com - manding officer. Without bothering about what the critics would say he was the first one to clamp curfew and close borders, visualizing the disastrous implications the Covid-19 would have on the border state. The curfew in Punjab came one day before Prime Minister Narendra Modi declared a 21-day nation-wide lockdown. After the declaration of the curfew Capt Amarinder Singh took several key steps well in time and showed the guts and gumption to strongly en - force his decisions The Captain’s team went into a crisis management mode, focusing on tracing an odd number of missing NRIs, preparing contingency plans for har - vesting and procurement of a whopping 137 lakh tonnes of wheat crop and finding ways to endure the pandemic’s debilitating effect on the state’s economy.

  • Baba Mama Foreword
    MY MEMOIRS By BABA MAMA FOREWORD It is a great privilege to write a few words about this book which narrates, in vivid detail, the life story of a family which, under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi, played an important role in India's battle for freedom from the British Rule, which gave to the country a brilliant, self-less, wise, cultured, learned, courageous and visionary political leader, Shri R K. Salve, and which, in Independent India, has given to the world a Divine Incarnation for the emancipation and evolution of human beings to a higher spiritual plane - Mataji Nirmala Devi. The book, My Memoirs, has been written in his inimitable style, by the youngest member of this illustrious family, H.P.Salve, popularly and affectionately known as Baba Mama. No person is better qualified to write about these jewels of India than Baba Mama. From his birth, he was the darling of the entire family. He had personally lived through the thick and thin of those tumultuous years preceding and following Independence and has enjoyed the trust and affection of all members of his family, especially of Mataji Nirmala Devi. He had been a witness of and participant in all the events which he had recaptured by graphic narration. In essence, the book is a life story of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi who, from the earliest days of her life, has demonstrated her infinite love and compassion for men, women and children, especially children, of all creeds and communities. This book carefully describes Her life stage by stage. In Her childhood, Nirmala displayed qualities which showed that she was a prodigy.

  • Me, the Jokerman: Enthusiasms, Rants \& Obsessions
    EDITOR’S NOTE ‘Khushwant Singh, the writer of joke books?’ the shopkeeper in Nainital asked, when we enquired if he had any books by the author. The perception of the Nainital shopkeeper was not only based on the author’s popular joke books but also on Khushwant Singh’s witty, light-hearted, engaging weekly columns. This aspect of the man has often overshadowed his considerable contribution as a writer of memorable fiction—Train to Pakistan, I Shall Not Hear the Nightingale (now renamed The Lost Victory), Delhi: a Novel—short stories and non-fiction. The seminal two-volume A History of the Sikhs is even today essential reading for anyone interested in the Sikhs or Sikh history. This collection, culled from the articles and columns that he wrote in the magazines and newspapers he edited and contributed to—the Illustrated Weekly of India, New Delhi, the Hindustan Times, The Tribune, etc.—reflects his intense concern about growing fundamentalism, curiosity about godmen and women and the state of the country and its people. There are also evocative pieces on nature and amusing vignettes on the cities he lived in—Delhi and Bombay and the hill station he escaped to in the summer, Kasauli. Included is a diary from January to November of the traumatic year 1984. Inevitably, the book concludes with ‘Sex Matters’ and a selection of jokes.
