Only handful of people have got these films,beside some of the films of Mani Kaul are held by Doordarshan who are sitting and hatching eggs on the films, instead of showing re-runs or releasing it.<BR/><BR/><BR/>You're absolutely right when you talk about preserving our own Indian tradition- rather promotion through a right channel. Since everyday we are moving towards westernized modules of thoughts and living - not a wrong thing, but at the same time, its important to preserve and understand our own culture- as you very well outlined in defining the whole notion of cross-cultrism.niteshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03667299083541761990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6766783946228905516.post-71958455751828248612008-05-20T15:56:00.000+05:302008-05-20T15:56:00.000+05:30Indeed an exclusive topic to share with the audien...Indeed an exclusive topic to share with the audiences.<BR/>I was thrilled to read about Dhrupad, to know just even a little bit in indian classical music.<BR/>There is so much still to explore within our indian traditions and culture.<BR/><BR/>In a situation where cross culturism is happening at high pace, and India been so much inspired by the western culture, it has become a matter of concern as to how we should preserve our culture, language, traiditions. One way to do is to atleast impart little bit one knows of to the masses.<BR/><BR/>I am honestly thankful for such an information.<BR/><BR/>Also one more thing I like about this blog is , if there is so much of criticism of bollywood which i do agree , theres also some great rare stuff that i come across here.supriasurihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12762055132001907000noreply@blogger.com
