In safe hands?
The fact that the breaks jam if you are clocking in 100 miles per hour without a seat belt on is not the reason you'd go for Bavaria Motor Works. BMW, that is, for the uninitiated!
High on DESIGN

Be your own Kabir
GN Devy was in Chandigarh on the invitation of Chandigarh Sahitya Akademi to deliver a lecture on contemporary creative expression on Monday. "There have been great writers who have cut across barriers of language, caste or religion like Nanak, Tukaram and Kabir," says Devy. There is nothing to regret though. "Today, a writer has do much more than just write to reach out to the masses," he says. "Writer must invent his or her space today," says Devy, citing examples of Narayanbhai Desai whose rendition of Gandhi Katha has an audience of up to thousands. On occasions, several lakhs show up when poet, singer Gadar from Andhra Pradesh presents something.
