With Bihari babu in Pink City
With Pankaj Dubey |
April
30, 2016: As usual the last week in Jaipur was very hectic. On April
26 there was another event of
Kalam
series
with Pankaj Dubey. Earlier
he
has been the guest of Kalam
in
Patna. In Jaipur also he was at his best.
He
would soon be
leaving
for the Republic
of South
Korea
on
some
study tour. Accordingly, we
decided
to have a Kalam
event
with him in Jaipur.
After
the event, on Tuesday evening, a jewellery designer friend arranged
for a very nice dinner for me in which he also called few others
friends. The best part of the dinner was the live music.
She
herself is a good singer and possesses many sterling qualities. One
of which is that she is such a good host.
With Shatrughan Sinha and Bharati S Pradhan |
On
Thursday and Friday I was quite busy with Shatrughan Sinha. He was in
Jaipur on
my
request and even agreed to attend quite a few events in the Pink
City
also
on my request. On Thursday there was a Write Circle
with
him and Bharathi S Pradhan - the author of his biography “Nothing
but Khamosh”.
After
the Write Circle
event,
there was a dinner get-together to meet and greet him at the Hilton
Rooftop.
It was my first visit to Hilton
Jaipur
and
I was quite impressed with their food as well as to how they have
kept their Rooftop.
With Shatrughan Sinha, Jayshree Periwal and the students of International School |
Friday,
April 29, Mr Sinha and I went to Jayshree Periwal’s International
School
formerly
known as Step-by-Step
School
where
Mr Sinha spoke on one of his most favourite topics “Say No to
Tobacco”. He also spoke about how he had left tobacco and on the
request of the students he recited some of his film dialogues.
The
students of International School
did
a fantastic job with their anti tobacco posters as part of a
competition
for which we gave away awards.
