What will Asin offer in ‘London Dreams.,
Bollywood debut opposite Aamir Khan in Ghajini, all eyes will be on the south-Indian superstar, Asin Thottumkal, in her second major release, London Dreams. The winner of several Filmfare Awards moved to Mumbai to carve a career in the Hindi film industry after Ghajini became a historic hit and producers began queuing up to sign her.
Contrary to popular belief that Vipul Shah cast the 24-year old in his magnum opus after Ghajini, she was penciled in as Ajay Devgan and Salman Khan’s lady-love well before her maiden outing. In London Dreams, she plays Priya, a young music enthusiast who joins Arjun’s (Ajay Devgan) rock band in Londo
Vipul, “I had seen Asin in a couple of big South films and really liked her work. I was looking for someone who could essay a beautiful Iyer girl, adept at both classical and western dance, and yet look like she’s been born and bred in London. I signed her even before the first promo of Ghajini came on television. Taking a newcomer opposite two big stars was a risk but I was confident of her and followed my instinct. When Ghajini clicked, I knew I had made the right decision.”
Hanuman as narrator in comic book
Hanuman, the symbol of power, purity and faith in the Ramayana, has appeared in a new avatar – as the ‘sutradhar’ (narrator) of the epic mythological tale in an adventure activity and comic book for children “Where’s Hanuman”.
Conceived and written by California-based publisher and a devotee of Lord Krishna, Alister Taylor, the animation book which is the first of a series has been illustrated by Christopher Woods and Ben McClintic and published in India by Penguin-Books India.
It was launched Saturday at the Reliance Timeout Store in Gurgaon in an action-packed activity evening for children and their parents. The activities centred on “Hanuman”, the most frequently invoked deities in the country and his brave lores.
A live-sized mannequin of the monkey god kept the children glued to the programme.
The slim volume begins with an introduction of Hanuman in first person and a cast of all the characters, both man and animals, who accompanied him on his journey of life. It also has a list of six objects – a bow, mace, conch, discus, ring and lotus – which Hanuman lost along the way.
the adventure exercise, children were supposed to spot the objects and characters, all associated with Hanuman in some way or the other, from the double-spread illustrations of Ramayana in the book.
“It is a new concept. The idea is to make the book participatory and interactive in nature. The children have to identify Hanuman and his associates from the illustrated sequences from Ramayana. They are almost hidden in unlikely corners. It is a good way to keep the children engaged and promote the epic,” Taylor told IANS.
The events illustrated in a rather humorous manner include mega crowded affairs like “Sita’s Wedding”, “Demons in the Forest” (King Rama fighting the demons), “The Coronation of Sugriva”, “Marshalling the Armies” (a huge jungle scene), “Marching to Lanka”, “Ravana’s Palace”, “Building the Bridge”, “Battle Scene”, “Attacking Lanka” and “The Pushpaka”.
character in Ramayana is Hanuman. He signifies faith and fearlessness. He is almost like god,” Bharti Khatwani from Vasant Kunj in the capital told IANS. She helped son Sameer, a Class 7 student, identify Hanuman and his entourage as part of a “Spot The Hanuman” contest at the launch.
Creator-publisher Taylor, head of Torchlight Publishing in the US, says his life is linked to Ramayana and Hanuman because “the epic changed the course of my vocation
20 years ago, on a flight from Cairo to New Zealand, somebody gave me a copy of the English translation of the Ramayana to read. It was not very reader friendly. The language was stilted. I realised that the world needed a contemporary and easy Ramayana. I asked one of my friends to translate both Ramayana and Mahabharata. It took nearly 10 years and then I set up a publishing house to print them. Ramayana was published in 1996 followed by Mahabharata in 1998. Both the books were best-sellers in the US. Since then, I had Hanuman in my mind,” Taylor said.
loves the “great Indian classics” and has a section devoted to them in his catalogue.
Indian mysticism and religion include a volume on “Vaisnava Saints,” “Krsna, Israel, and the Druze”, “The Final Journey (Complete Hospice Care for Departing Vaisnavas)”, “Krsna Land”, “Prince Rama, Son of the Solar Dynasty” and “Bhagwad Gita for Children”.

Dear God, this year please send clothes for all those poor ladies in Daddy’s Computer….”
MERA DOST HAI NA…
“Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.”
“Live your life each day as you would climb a mountain. An occasional glance towards the summit keeps the goal in mind, but many beautiful scenes are to be observed from each new vintage point.”
Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.”
