Ideating events for Rajasthan
Saturday
April 28, 2012: I had quite a few meetings yesterday and today as I
am keen to initiate a series of events and activities in Rajasthan by
involving as many organizations as possible.
I
had a meeting with Ficci FLO newly-elected Chairperson, Ms Vinnie
Kakkar, and few of her committee members and discussed the
possibility of holding some of the events jointly. I offered them an
event on Rabindranath Tagore which was in my mind for quite some
time.
I
also met Prakash Surana, the man behind 30-year-old organization
called Shruti
Mandal, and
one of the most reputed organizations in Rajasthan as far as
classical music and dance is concerned.
I
discussed the idea of Tagore event with Surana ji
and
requested if Shruti
Mandal would
come on board to host this event jointly with Ficci FLO. I mentioned
that my idea of including Shruti
Mandal is
because it has the right kind of audience for the event I have
conceptualized.
I
am mentally prepared to do the Tagore event in the Pink City on the
13th
of
May, 2012, and it seems that both Shruti
Mandal and
Ficci FLO will come on board to pay tribute to Gurudev.
My
only regret today is that I missed a luncheon meeting with Shobhna
Bhartiya hosted by the Speaker of the State Legislative Assembly,
Dipendra Singh Shekhawat, and also missed the Bihari
Purashkar event
in the evening. I was keen to attend the Bihari
Purashkar as
my late mother was a recipient of the award that I had collected on
her behalf many years ago.
Tomorrow
I shall fly out to Delhi.
