In this issue

It’s summer in the subcontinent, and we are looking at innovative ways to battle the heat. The most common method is to find a good spot and have a nap, as an expat observes in The Lighter Side. Or sip on a glass of aam panna, chaas or kokum sherbet – recipes for which are included in the food segment, In Your Kitchen. If you prefer your Daily Cuppa, sample a customised glass of chai in the local tea shop in a village in Tamil Nadu. If time hangs heavy on your hands, take off for a short vacation – follow the tiger’s trail in Corbett National Park, or take a walk along the beaches of the Andaman islands. We also explore the rich cultural heritage of the sari – the indigenous, unstitched garment in our Feature. And did you know that there are over a 100 ways to drape this beautiful stretch of fabric? We talk about this and more with Rta Kapur Chishti – founder of the Sari School in Delhi and author of Saris: Tradition and Beyond. We hope this issue is a enriching read – do write to us at culturama@globaladjustments.com and let us know your thoughts.
