Inspiring Patriotism MIME & a Short Movie for Women's Day

Youth Energy is abundant when it is channelised in proper direction. Today ,Youth celebrate college fests, National days like Independence Day and Republic Day along with Neo-age-celebrations like Valentine Day, Father's Day, Mother's Day, Friendship Day with utmost enthusiasm. These celebrations are marked with Short Movies or SKITS or MIMES by some creative young souls. 

I was lucky enough for having witnessed a MIME show by students of Sapthagiri College of Engineering, Bengaluru a team of I.S.E branch students put up an excellent performance in a MIME show with theme- 'Patriotism Journey of India' at SANKALP-2K17

MME@ sankalp-2k17

True to the creativity of current generation, The show depicted not only patriotic acts of pre-independence era like Chitradurga's Onakke Obavva, Bhagat Singh, Chandrashekar Azaad, Sukdev trio, Mahatma Gandhi saga and they didn't stop at this they proceeded to Post-independence era by remembering Dr. Abdul Kalam and his missile achievements, Brave act of our soldiers in Kargil War and Cricket's winning performances at World Cup fixtures. This clearly depicts Patriotism beyond war fields is also given importance by current day youths.

Coming to the performance of artists, The way Indian Missile launching mission was exhibited is pinnacle of creativity and words can't capture it only visuals can do justice to it.  Amongst so many entertaining performances at SANKALP-2K17, This MIME show was really meaningful.

A Pic From #SHEFORHER, Short Movie

    

Last week witnessed Women's Day Celebration across the globe and Indians too celebrated this year's Women day with lot of excitement and enthusiasm. A creative team called Gypsy Moth has come up with a Short Movie-available at YouTube link  #SHEFORHER,  is an excellent one that put forward the old adage " Is Women true Enemy of Women?" and provides a brand new solution of How women can actually come up with an open gesture at home, office or street to stand by her is depicted well within available small time period of this movie. 

These two creative acts of youngsters made me realise how meaningful was the quote of Swami Vivekananda which says -- "Every Soul is Potentially Divine", we have to just nourish it and channelise in right direction instead of blaming and cursing current day Youth as spoilt fruits.

Karnataka BUDGET-2K17: Good One for Movie Buffs & Party Makers!!

Our C.M, Mr. Siddaramaiah has presented Budget for year 2017-18 and key highlight being: All the Multiplex Movie halls have to compulsorily exhibit Kannada Movies and most important aspect is movie tickets will not cost more than 200 I.N.R! Really Movies was the cheapest entertainment for common man of this Nation for decades and with influx of globalization and liberalization and entry of Malls and multiplex theaters tickets rates had sky rocketed and to watch the movies with family in weekends has become costly affair.

No doubt, Multiplex theaters do offer good ambience for cine lovers but the whooping cost of tickets on weekends makes it not an affordable entertainment for many of us. But this move to cap the cost of tickets at max Rs.200 is a good move of our Govt.
One more interesting news for weekend party makers is--- 'Liquor will not have VAT-Value Added Tax'!
