Dubai International Film Festival

The Dubai film festival has recognised the work of Nandita Das and Deepa Mehta for their directorial work in Firaaq and Heaven on Earth. Awards to these two creative women were announced in the Asia-Africa category, just a little before the close of the festival. The jury said that they had a tough time choosing among the films because most of the films had been extraordinary. They said that they hoped that the award winning film makers would come back with even more extraordinary films in the forthcoming festivals. Congratulations to these very creative and enterprising women!

Recession

During recession, everyone becomes an achiever because people battle against odds to feel happy. Most Americans have taken to laughter yoga, which is a kind of yoga that blends laughter with meditation, leaving the person feeling healthy and happy. Laughter yoga was started in India about 15 years by Madan Kataria. It has become popular in Europe and has just started in the US. Since research has proved that laughter is the best way to health, people are willing to laugh till their bellies ache.
