The mythical beasts she loves to draw have come to life, and she is the only one who can defeat them. Kiki Kallira has always been a worrier. Did she lock the front door? Is there a terrible reason her mum is late? Recently her anxiety has been getting out of control, but one thing that has always soothed her is drawing. Kiki’s sketchbook is full of fantastical doodles of the Hindu myths and legends her mother has told her since she was tiny. One day, her sketchbook’s calming effect is broken when her mythological characters begin springing to life and Kiki is pulled into the mystical world she drew. There, she discovers the band of rebel kids who protect the kingdom, as well as an ancient, monstrous god bent on total destruction. Kiki must overcome her fear and anxiety to save both worlds – the real and the imagined – from his wrath. But how can a girl armed with only a pencil defeat something so powerful?

  • Ganjam Nagappa & Sons: an International Heritage Brand
    Ganjam Nagappa & Sons: An International Heritage Brand Having completed 125 years of existence in 2014, Ganjam was known as a true heritage brand of handcrafted jewellery. Over seven generations of this family was deeply involved in the development of Ganjam as an epitome of highest quality jewellery harmoniously uniting the new and the old. Their jewellery with unmatched quality of diamonds received recognition across the world with awards from De Beers, The Gold Virtuosi, Perles de Tahiti and Platinum Guild International. In 2014, the company was owned and managed by the 6th and 7th generation family members with a presence in Bangalore, Mumbai, Delhi, Tokyo (Japan) and New York (USA). “Indian jewellery is not just about putting together gems and metals. Each curve and wave has a meaning and the designs have immense symbolism hidden under them. Each part of India has a different design, art and craft of making jewellery. One of the most celebrated and awed at jewellery is the “Carnatic jewellery”, or jewellery inspired by South Indian temple architecture. Temple jewellery, as it is also known, conforms primarily to the great ancient scriptures - Shilpa Shastra, Brihat Samhita and Jyotish Shastra. Ganjam is probably the only brand keeping this traditional form of jewellery making alive. This traditional jewelry design is influenced by two texts, namely the ‘Ratna Pariksha’ and the ‘Ratna Rahasya’ both written in the fourth century. People believed that South Indian jewelry is called temple jewelry because devadasis wore these pieces while performing. However, the real reason is because the craftsmen who built the temples (called vishwakarmas) were also the craftsmen who made jewellery” - Umesh Ganjam (Managing Director of Ganjam & 7th Generation of Ganjam Family) This case was written by Mr.
