Yellow, Yellow, Gritty Fellows!

It was a nippy Sunday morning but nothing that would keep the rugged Delhiite away from the annual Senior Citizens’ Run supported by Harmony at the Airtel Delhi Half Marathon. Not even the mood-dampening smog that had descended on the capital a week earlier could do that! So said 74 year-old Sarla Rani and her band of regulars at the run who arrived at Nehru Stadium on the morning of 19 November even before the sun did. Soon they were joined by busloads of silvers from all over Delhi, Noida and Gurugram.

Colours Of Contentment

In her studio on the second floor of her Hyderabad home, Anjani Reddy paints beautiful women in serene poses, always surrounded by flowers and nature. But her women do not smile, nor are they angry or crying—they are simply serene. The 66 year-old is an artist who bares her soul in her work, her inner peace so palpable that one cannot help but be touched by it. “Every artist projects some element of herself in her art. I do too. When I paint the women, I project an inner serenity, I want to share my personal moments with connoisseurs. A woman does not have to smile to show that she is happy,” reveals Reddy, recipient of the Raja Ravi Varma Samman conferred by the Megh Mandal Sansthan of Rajasthan at Chaitranjali, an annual event that recognises contemporary Indian artists.
