Italian PM’s ‘Mann ki Baat’ with Modi foreword

The edition has already received thousands of online pre-orders, reflecting high anticipation ahead of its launch.

In the foreword, Modi draws a unique parallel between Meloni’s autobiography and his own monthly radio programme, Mann Ki Baat. He writes, “It is her Mann Ki Baat. Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni'’s life and leadership remind us of timeless truths that transcend borders and cultures. Her journey, marked by resilience and determination, is a testament to the power of conviction and the importance of staying true to one’s roots.”

AWESOME TWOSOME IN FEARLESS FILMMAKING

PARNA Sen’s 36 Chowringhee Lane (1981) was a landmark in my formative years as a film buff. I am not sure where I watched it. But what has stayed with me till date are Jennifer Kendal’s eloquent presence as the quiet and secluded Anglo-Indian teacher Violet Stoneham, and Ashok Mehta’s camera that captures the many shades of loss and solitude that imbue the film, and the textures of a fading world it is set in. It was about underscoring the tenuousness of a community as well as the vulnerability of an individual.
