This theatre man is on a song
Amritsar, July 31
‘Jattan da munda marassi ban gaya’ said my family when I decided to act. But now they appreciate my decision”, says Kewal Dhaliwal, well-known theatre artiste and director. He is also the president of Manch Rangmanch, an organisation engaged in nurturing budding artists.
There is a secret that most of his students don’t know. Dhaliwal is equally good at humming Punjabi songs. “When my students see me completely engrossed in putting together a play, the last thing that they expect is that I can settle down calmly in a chair to sing for them.
For a clean, green city
Amritsar, July 31
“My Mother Most Beautiful”- a non-government organisation dedicated to various issues concerning environment and the holy city - is a one-man initiative, which has turned into a “karvan”.
Initially, the organisation employed about 18 needed and poor youths who worked four to five hours in the morning on daily basis for planting trees and other environmental causes. All expenses of providing them salaries were borne by Dr Sushil Gupta, a medical practitioner in the Rambagh area, whose brainchild is the
organisation.
