This is a one-day, small-group dialogue being organized on April 14 (Ambedkar Jayanti) to facilitate a thoughtful and structured discussion on caste in contemporary India. The event will bring together approximately 60–70 participants for a combination of moderated dialogue, reading-based engagement, and guided small-group discussions.
The first half of the day will feature a moderated conversation engaging with themes such as caste and religion, social hierarchy, and the relevance of Ambedkar’s thought in present times. The second half will involve facilitated small-group discussions where participants reflect on their own experiences and perspectives in a respectful and structured setting.
The event is designed as a reflective, educational space and will follow clear guidelines to ensure respectful and constructive dialogue among participants.

A captivating Bharatanatyam performance inspired by Lord Nataraja’s cosmic dance. Experience an evening of rhythm, expression, and storytelling that brings together tradition and spiritual energy

“Lash’t Wish” is a poignant Hindi play by Dr.Suryasnata Tripathy about a man who performs cremations for a living. When he encounters an unclaimed body, compassion leads him to perform the last rites—only to discover a note listing three unfulfilled wishes. Before lighting the pyre, he sets out to fulfill them. Blending dark humor with tenderness and reflection, the play explores forgotten dreams, loneliness, and the quiet meaning of life. Lash’t Wish ultimately becomes not a story about death, but a gentle reminder of what we leave behind.

A well-known problem revisited: In her comprehensive documentary, Isa Willinger investigates the material. Through alarming imagery, she reveals the damage it causes in nature, to animals, and humans. However, she doesn’t overlook its benefits. Willinger explores environmentally friendly methods of plastic production and engages in interviews with representatives from the plastic industry, scientists, and activists. The film portrays the current handling of the problem, which doesn’t inspire excessive optimism, but it also emphasizes that solutions do exist.

All are Welcome!

The story centers around a village where people believe in superstitions and are easily influenced by rumors and false claims. A symbolic object—the “kundeti kommu” (ram’s horn)—becomes the focus of exaggerated belief and manipulation.

Certain characters take advantage of villagers’ ignorance for personal gain. As misunderstandings grow, conflicts arise. Eventually, truth and reason challenge blind faith, exposing hypocrisy and social foolishness.
