hmhmhm tlt project draft update

[the earendil crew selection committee offers alta & luna a seat; percy reacts]

[1. alta & luna]

Mereka berdua sedang akan menyeberang jalan, berlindung di bawah jaket masing-masing dari hujan yang masih rintik, ketika Luna merasa ponsel di sakunya bergetar.

Dia ingin minta menepi dulu begitu mereka sampai di seberang, tapi Alta mendahului dengan menariknya ke bawah [awning] sebuah toko.

“Tunggu sebentar, ada yang nelpon,“ katanya sambil mengeluarkan ponselnya sendiri.

Sambil mengernyit, Luna melakukan hal yang sama, lalu tertegun. Panggilan untuknya datang dari [kantor komite seleksi kru Earendil].

Suara lembut menyapanya dari ujung lain sambungan, memberitahunya tentang posisi yang baru saja kosong di kabin pertama. Mereka menawarinya untuk menggantikan seseorang.

Luna termenung. Hanya ada satu orang yang perannya mampu dia gantikan di kru itu. “Gamian? Gamian mengundurkan diri? Tapi kenapa?”

“Press release-nya besok, tapi tentu kamu bisa bertanya ke orangnya langsung.”

“Tunggu…” Dia melirik Alta yang juga masih bicara dengan peneleponnya. “Hanya Gamian yang mengundurkan diri?”

Luna melihat Alta balik memandangnya dengan senyum mengembang, sementara suara lembut di telinganya menjawab: “Tidak, Aria juga.”

***

“We’re in, Lune! We got in! We’re going to Prox b!”

***

Luna tidak tahu harus memberitahu siapa. Ayahnya? Apa dia masih hidup? Apa dia akan peduli? Luna merasa lebih baik tidak tahu. Teman-teman sekolahnya? Fika? Dia tidak ingin mengganggu mereka lagi, sementara rekan-rekan satu skuadnya di UNSA sudah menghilang diserap garda depan peperangan. Yang tersisa hanya Alta—tapi Alta malah pergi bersamanya. Tentu saja, siapa lagi yang patut ikut misi ini selain perancangnya sendiri?

Luna tidak ingin memikirkan apa artinya, kenapa dia enggan diingat oleh siapa-siapa; tidak ingin mencari nama dari apa yang membuatnya ingin dilupakan seutuhnya, kecuali, mungkin, oleh satu orang. Dia sudah terbiasa membawa pergi emosi-emosinya yang terlalu ribut, memasukkan mereka ke dalam laci-laci sampai mereka tidak menimbulkan suara lagi. Saat dikeluarkan, mereka sudah mati lemas dan siap dibuang tanpa perlawanan.

Di tepi jalan, di tengah hujan yang semakin deras, Luna menerima gumpalan perasaan saling tumpang-tindih yang tiba-tiba dia genggam saat Alta meraih tangannya, dia hirup sejenak, dia nikmati bagiannya yang cerah, diabaikannya yang lain, sebelum ia masukkan semuanya, kembali ke dalam laci.

***

Alta tidak punya laci-laci seperti itu. Layaknya seseorang yang diajari dengan lembut untuk mencintai hidup secara keseluruhan, bersama dengan semua pojok-pojok berbayangnya, dia mengambil bola benang kusut perasaannya dengan halus, dan mengurainya, menarik benangnya satu per satu:

perasaan yang ini karena suatu hari nanti dia akan menginjakkan kaki di sistem bintang lain. Simbolisme yang juga perwujudan dari potensi umat manusia, oh, dan dia akan punya andil! Begitu luas semesta terasa, begitu perkasa manusia di tengah semua kelemahannya. Seperti sesuatu yang dia rasakan sebelum dia berangkat ke Namibia, tapi lebih-lebih lagi;

yang ini karena dia terpilih di antara ribuan kandidat lain—kandidat yang lebih aman tanpa ancaman tuduhan favoritisme atau main orang dalam. Di malam-malam tanpa lelap ketika dia mengkaji algoritma optimasi kru, jarang terlintas dalam pikiran bahwa keinginannya untuk menjadi subjek dari eksperimennya sendiri akan terkabul;

yang ini karena dia ingat, dalam hal ini pergi adalah sisi lain dari mati. Dia akan pergi karena keinginannya sendiri, dan bukankah mati sukarela adalah bunuh diri? Dia ingin menghubungi orangtuanya sekarang juga, supaya besok pagi, mereka bisa bicara dengan rasa sakit yang sudah berkurang sedikit;

yang ini karena masih banyak hal yang ingin ia lakukan. Di daftar bacaannya masih ada puluhan buku. Sudah tiga tahun dia belum bertemu lagi dengan teman-teman di kampung halamannya. Dia belum pernah menyiapkan hidangan dari hasil sesuatu yang ia tanam dan rawat sendiri; belum pernah berkendara melewati jalan sepi yang membelah padang rumput krem pucat di tengah sebuah negeri asing; belum pernah dimusuhi pustakawan suatu perpustakaan kota di mana dia baru pindah; belum pernah menjadi tempat pertama untuk kakaknya mengadu (Alta menumpulkan perasaan yang ini, mengusapnya sampai pudar dan meniupnya ke awang-awang);

dan yang ini, dia rasakan karena sebelumnya dia pernah berpikir: mungkin tak apa jika dia dan Luna tak terpilih, karena dia bisa membayangkan hari-harinya di Bumi, untuk bertemu lagi (dan lagi) dengan keluarga dan sahabat yang kini terasa tak terperi berharganya, untuk melihat Luna di banyak kesempatan di masa depan––jika dia tidak keberatan. Alta akan sukarela menunggui ucapannya yang sepi dan jarang-jarang dan menyimaknya seperti orang kehausan menghadapi gerimis. Dalam dunianya yang ajeg penuh kepastian, Luna membuatnya menginginkan sesuatu yang mungkin tidak akan sepenuhnya ia dapatkan, sesuatu yang rentan dan bisa menghilang kapan-kapan, pergi membawa semua barang-barangnya dalam dua koper kecil lalu tidak pulang berbulan-bulan—hanya karena merasa terlalu lama terjebak di tengah riuh riak peradaban manusia. Dan Alta akan berusaha mengerti, dan menunggunya dengan senang hati.

Sentimen yang manis, Alta. Andai saja dia tak tahu, bahwa jika hanya salah satu dari mereka yang tinggal, tak akan ada diskusi tentang melepas kesempatan untuk ikut di Earendil. Yang pergi tak akan mampu, yang tinggal tak akan mau––mereka berdua tak ada yang setega itu. Mimpi manisnya hanya hadiah hiburan untuk mimpi yang ini, bersama misi Earendil, yang kelebih-agungannya tak terbantahkan.

Alta memaafkan dan memaklumi semua dan setiap perasaannya, lalu menyimpan mereka di tempat yang tak terlindungi, agar hujan, sinar matahari, dan angin, bisa menyentuh dan melindunginya dari kelembaman.

Malam itu mereka berdua tiba di asrama begitu larut, dengan baju kering tapi wajah yang masih basah.

*************************

[2. percy]

Pulang bagiku selalu terasa seperti perjalanan menyepi, sebuah usaha untuk lari dari kerumitan buatan manusia dan sembunyi di balik fasad sederhana alam, untuk sengaja mendamparkan diri di sebuah pulau karang sempit yang berpenghuni seonggok mercusuar saja. Tapi meninggalkan hiruk-pikuk kota juga cenderung membuatku menjadi dingin dan melankolis, seperti pelaut yang sudah terlalu nyaman dengan dinamisnya gelombang, ajegnya darat malah membuat mual.

Tapi kemudian aku sampai di pekarangan dan mendapati mercusuar itu—rumah keluargaku, mungil tapi seakan menjulang di tengah luas ladang dan ombak perbukitan. Wangi masakan ayah. Odessa keluar dari lubang di pintu dan berlari ke arahku, dengan segera minta digaruki belakang telinganya. Alta menyusul membuka pintu, dengan rambut acak-acakan seakan baru bangun tidur tapi tangan yang sudah belepotan tanah kebun belakang, memelukku erat tapi hati-hati supaya tidak mengotori baju, kemudian dengan santainya memoles jidatku dengan jarinya. Aku merasa begitu hangat terbungkus familiaritas hingga tak terpikirkan untuk merasa jengkel.

“Ibu mana, Al?”

“Tadi sih di ruang kerjanya. Sini,” Alta menawarkan tangannya. Aku menggantungkan tas-tas jinjingku dari sikunya, membuatnya tampak seperti manekin di pusat perbelanjaan.

“Ada sesuatu?” Tanyaku lagi.

“Iya, sama tim yang di Monash—tau kan, yang sama Paman Ajit—jadinya hampir ga keluar-keluar dari kemarin.”

Itu tidak biasa, tapi juga tidak aneh.

Odessa mengiringi kami sampai pintu depan, tapi kemudian melesat tiba-tiba ke halaman belakang, mengikuti suara yang hanya dia bisa dengar.

“Aku senang sekali kamu nyempatin pulang, Perce,” ujar Alta saat kami membuka pintu.

“Oh ya?” Aku tertawa. Kami dididik untuk tidak pernah malu mengucapkan hal-hal manis seperti itu. Ini jadwal pulangku yang biasa. Aku tidak punya alasan untuk mencurigai ada sesuatu yang aneh.

Tapi, Alta tersenyum sebelum masuk mendahuluiku, aku mengikutinya, dan pada jenak itu, aku merasa seperti tidak berpijak di daratan padat.

***

Aku mulai yakin ada yang tidak beres begitu mendapati ayahku di dapur. Alta sudah kembali ke luar. Ayah hanya sendiri, mengotak-atik pemanggang wafel yang sudah berbulan-bulan rusak.

“Belum ke bengkel, Yah?”

Dia menggeleng. “Nunggu kamu, Perce,” Ayah mengecup pipiku, lalu kembali pada pekerjaannya.

“Ada yang perlu dibicarakan?”

“Kamu istirahat dulu saja.” Dia tidak melihat ke arahku.

“Aku sudah cukup tidur tadi di jalan.”

Mendengar itu Ayah meletakkan perkakasnya, mengetuk-ngetukkan jarinya seperti yang ia selalu lakukan ketika sedang menimbang sesuatu, lalu akhirnya menatapku, “panggil ibumu,” ujarnya lirih.

Kakiku seperti membeku, aku harus memaksanya melangkah.

Tebakan pertamaku adalah ada yang sakit, lalu, _tak apa_. Kami akan bisa menghadapinya, aku akan menghabiskan lebih banyak waktu lagi di sini, ini yang namanya hidup, tak apa.

Saat aku masuk ke ruang kerja Ibu, seperti biasa, ia langsung berhenti mengerjakan apapun itu yang sedang ia kerjakan.

“Percy?” Panggilnya sambil berbalik. Dia terdengar lelah sekali.

Ibu mencoba menanyakan perjalananku, perubahan jadwal TrainLink karena banjir, kabar Maya temanku, tapi kemudian berhenti, seakan tahu aku tahu.

Kami berkumpul di dapur, tanpa Alta. Aku baru saja akan menanyakannya saat Ibu memulai.

“Ini tentang adikmu.”

Dulu, ada saat-saat ketika aku sedang memperhatikan Alta—mengerjakan buku mewarnai, atau berlari sambil cekikikan saat balapan pulang dari sekolah, gigi depannya ompong, dedaunan kusam musim gugur berputar-putar mengikuti jalur angin di sekitar kami—dan merasakan sensasi seperti ingin bergidik, seperti ada yang dingin menyentuh tulang. Aku tahu statistiknya. Anak-anak yang dulunya prodigi dari berbagai bidang, muncul dan memukau publik sebelum kemudian tumbuh dewasa, jatuh depresi, menyalahgunakan obat-obatan, melakukan tindak kriminal, melukai orang lain sebelum akhirnya mengakhiri diri sendiri.

Alta anak yang baik—bahkan kadang terlalu baik. Tapi tidak berarti kami pernah berhenti khawatir, atau berhenti melindunginya seakan ada sesuatu yang gelap yang akan merampasnya, berhenti—

“Adikmu mendaftar jadi kru Earendil,” ujar Ibu, tidak menatapku, “dan lolos.”

Adikmu. Perasaan itu. Aku ingin bergidik, ingin menggigil, ingin berkata ‘sudah kubilang apa’, ingin menyalahkan seseorang karena bagaimana bisa kalian tidak melihat bahwa ini yang akan dia lakukan, Alta, adikku…

Orang tuaku hanya memanggil Alta adikku saat ingin aku melakukan sesuatu untuknya—mengantarnya ke kantor pos, menjemputnya dari pesta ulang tahun teman, mencarikan kaos kakinya di kolong kasur. Dan kali ini…

“Ibu dan Ayah ingin kamu ada untuk dia.”

Ibu orang yang tidak biasa subtil, dia mengatakan apa yang perlu dikatakan dan mengatakannya dengan jelas, tapi kali ini permintaannya begitu halus, aku hanya bisa mengerti karena aku anaknya, dan menyayangi adikku sama besarnya. Orang tuaku memintaku untuk berdiri di belakang Alta, mendukungnya…karena untuk pertama kalinya, mereka tidak bisa.

“Oke,” tanggapku, kasar, singkat, karena luka, meski terantisipasi, bagaimanapun masih sakit.

Aku tidak sadar menangis sebelum Ayah menarikku ke pelukannya. Ibu merangkul kami berdua, dan bertiga, kami diliputi saput duka yang seharusnya tak masuk akal, karena adikku masih ada di luar, masih di atas tanah, menyiangi rumput, membersihkan petak-petak tanah untuk menanam tomat. Tapi bagian dari diriku yang kejam merasa tahu lebih baik dan berbisik, apa bedanya?

***

Sesuatu yang gelap itu ternyata adalah langit. Semua manusia memimpikan ketakterhinggaan, kekekalan, dan seperti biasa, adikku melakukannya dengan lebih baik daripada kebanyakan orang. Kami telah melindunginya, tapi dari hal yang salah. Bukan statistik, hanya langit.

Psikologi perkembangan anak bukan bidang ibuku tapi dia belajar banyak demi Alta. Orang tuaku menyekolahkannya di sekolah biasa yang sama denganku, mendorongnya berteman dengan anak-anak sebaya, membatasi waktunya membaca di kamar sendirian, tidak memperbolehkannya loncat kelas tak peduli seberapa keras guru-gurunya membujuk. Tapi Alta tidak terbendung, dan dunia juga tidak mau menunggu. Selepas sekolah tahun ketujuh dia diajak salah satu rekan Ibu mengikuti sebuah proyek untuk [gifted kids], bekerja dimentori pakar sambil mengaudit kelas di universitas. Sebenarnya Ibu tidak mau merestui. Alta juga tidak memaksa. Dari dulu dia seakan tahu ada hal-hal yang hanya orang tua kami lakukan untuk melindunginya saja, dan dia selalu berusaha menurut. Tapi angan itu ada saja, dan Ibu tidak tahan melihat Alta pura-pura tak apa. Kesalahan pertama orang tuaku.

Saat ini, adikku, yang terlibat dengan sekian banyak tim riset [cutting-edge] di berbagai institusi tanpa selembar pun ijazah SMA atas namanya, sedang kebingungan, mencoba mengira-ngira dalamnya lubang yang dibutuhkan untuk semaian tomat. Saat kakek kami masih ada dia pernah memberi Alta julukan Black-thumb, karena apapun yang adikku tanam seringnya tidak tumbuh benar. Tidak berarti Alta pernah berhenti mencoba.

“Kamu butuh setidaknya tiga puluh sentimeter untuk tomat,” seruku dari teras.

Alta mendongak dari tempatnya berlutut, matanya menyipit kerna silau sinar matahari. “Aku ingat, tapi yang ini pendek sekali.”

“Tambah lagi saja alas pupuknya. Won’t hurt.”

“Right, siap Bu Master Tani.”

Andai saja dia semenurut itu juga untuk hal selain berkebun. Setidaknya satu saja hal lain. Aku turun ke tanah menghampirinya.

“Kenapa tidak memberi tahuku langsung, Al? Takut kusemprot?” Bualan. Dia tahu aku tak akan bisa marah, tidak tadi, tidak sekarang.

Alta menghela nafas panjang. “Ayah yang mengusulkan. Katanya itu akan lebih baik.” Dia berdiri menghadapku, sekop masih di tangan, serumpun perdu Lilly Pilly di antara kami.

“Lebih baik? Untukku atau untukmu?”

“Untuk semuanya. “

Aku tercenung. Orang tuaku tidak ingin Alta melihat bagaimana hancurnya hati mereka karena keputusan ini. Alta tahu, tapi tahu dan melihat adalah dua hal berbeda. Ada tuntunan berduka untuk mereka yang ditinggal secara sukarela, tapi sepertinya ibuku memilih untuk menganggap ini seperti kasus [terminal illness], dan itu membuatku tertawa, yang kemudian berubah jadi meringis.

“Tidak adakah yang bisa mengubah pikiranmu?”

Alta melangkah mendekat, tangannya mengepal, masih sama seperti saat dia kecil dulu, meneguhkan dirinya untuk melakukan sesuatu. Andai aku tidak tahu.

“Aku…aku punya banyak sekali alasan, Perce. Satu untuk setiap orang yang nanya. Tapi untuk kalian, tidak satu pun. Aku cuma mau bilang, ini tidak berarti aku tidak sayang kalian, karena aku sayang kalian, lebih dari apapun. Kamu tahu itu. Tolong ingat itu.” Dia mengucapkan yang terakhir seperti akan menangis.

“Ya.” Hanya itu yang keluar dari mulutku. Jika saja ini keluarga lain, aku bisa marah dan memohon, pergi sambil mengeluarkan ultimatum, menahan kasih sayang seperti tawanan untuk ditebus. Tapi bukan itu yang orang tuaku ajarkan. "Sini," aku mengulurkan tangan. Cinta adalah untuk diterima, lalu dikembalikan lagi, terus seperti itu, tidak pernah disimpan. Alta memberikan sekopnya.

Ini ritual lama. Aku yang membuat lubang-lubang di tanah dan Alta yang mengisinya dengan pupuk, lalu meletakkan semaiannya. Kami berdekatan tapi tidak bisa saling melihat, dan terkadang itu membuat percakapan jadi lebih mudah.

"Jadi bagaimana," tanyaku, di lapang pandangku semuanya tanah, "apa kita akan pindah ke rumah peninggalan nenek?"

Di sampingku, Alta [freezes] sebelum menjawab. "Ibu mikirnya begitu, sih. Tempatnya juga dekat ke JSSC. Tapi..."

"Tapi?"

"Tapi kamu punya pekerjaan di sini dan aku rasa itu tidak adil--" Alta menyadari salah katanya. Aku abaikan.

"Aku bisa cari pekerjaan lain, tak apa."

Alta mendengar nadaku dan tidak membantah.

“Aku egois, ya?” Tanyanya tiba-tiba.

"Ya," tapi kuusahakan senyumku terdengar dari jawaban itu. Itu tugasmu, hampir kubilang itu. Dan tugas kakak sulung adalah untuk jadi catatan kaki saat buku sejarah sedang membahas adik-adiknya. "Kita akan menghadapi ini bersama, aku bisa tinggal di rumah lebih sering, tak apa."

***

Di kelas semester pertamaku dulu, aku belajar bagaimana cinta tak bersyarat dari orang tua mengondisikan kita untuk tidak takut mencoba dan membuat kesalahan. Tak ayal waktu itu aku teringat pada orang tuaku sendiri, karena tentu saja mereka tahu. Itulah kenapa mereka terlihat tenang saja saat aku mulai memberontak, berhari-hari tak pulang, bergaul dengan ‘berandalan’—karena mereka tahu, itu berarti di lubuk hatiku, aku mempercayai mereka untuk tetap menyayangiku, tak peduli hal bodoh apapun yang telah kulakukan.

Pernah terlintas di pikiran bahwa orang tuaku terlalu bagus dalam membesarkan adikku. Lihatlah, seseorang yang begitu sehat secara emosional, begitu aman dalam kepercayaannya akan kebaikan orang-orang, akan kodratnya sebagai seseorang yang patut dicintai apa adanya, dia yakin orang tuanya akan menyayanginya dan mendukungnya dalam melakukan hal apapun, bahkan jika itu termasuk mengikuti sesuatu yang sama saja dengan bunuh diri. Mau sesempurna apalagi kepercayaan itu? Ternyata, yang tidak sempurna adalah orang tuaku. Alta memutuskan meninggalkan mereka sementara mereka tidak punya rasa aman yang sempurna itu--bahwa Alta mencintai mereka tak peduli apapun yang terjadi.

Tidak, bukan yang tadi. Inilah kesalahan pertama orang tuaku, mencintai putra mereka tanpa syarat. Kesalahan semua orang tua, jika itu bisa disebut kesalahan.

***

"Eh tahu tidak, Ayah lagi memperbaiki pemanggang wafel."

"Iya tadi aku juga lihat. Rasanya kangen wafel buatan Ayah, ya? Apalagi yang pakai stroberi."

"Aku juga! Mau nyari di dekat pagar setelah ini?"

"...maksudmu ‘nyuri’?"

"Eh, kata undang-undang reformasi lahan tahun seribu sembilan ratus--"

"...oke, oke."

"You get me, Perce."

"…of course. Always."

The past Bollywood comedian Mehmood hitched it up with humour, the attractive Zeenat Aman sexed it up in the film 'Hare Rama Hare Krishna', and also currently a lungi dance in a Shah Rukh Khan starrer has everyone discussing it once more. That's the important things with the lungi-- every decade or so it takes care of to wind its back right into style.

In 1971, not long after Aman covered herself up in a lungi for her hippie twirl in 'Hare Rama Hare Krishna', women throughout the country believed the sensual swirl. "Zeenat Aman provided the lungi a whole hippie ambiance," states Chennai-based developer Rehane. Dr Tusna Park, a Chennai-based physician, says lungis were the blues jeans of the 70s. "I had great deals of them in my wardrobe. So did my schoolmates at medical university. We would certainly use them with official as well as semi-formal tops. They were the style after that," states Dr Park. "But after a couple of years, the fad died out and I reduced them all up to make kurtas since that was the fashion after that." Tamil celebrities have actually constantly put on the lungi with style, kicking up the border in a sinuous activity as well as binding it round their waistlines with panache. As well as now, Chennai Express appears to have helped the two-metre garment obtain a couple of lawns in advance on the fashion map. "When we created the suggestion of local road wear for the motion picture, we really did not think our lungi concept would become this popular," states a spokesperson for Manish Malhotra, the outfit designer for Chennai Express.

Other Indian developers are dealing with it as well. Chennai-based designer Rehane will be converting the lungi textile into trendy western wear for her spring-summer 2014 collection. "We will be publishing on the checked product," she says. The collection will certainly be showcased at the fashion week in Delhi later on this year. "The fabric is cotton and also environment-friendly," she says. Wendell Rodricks also used the lungi in his Ocean Oriente Spring Summer 2013 collection for the Wills Way Of Living Style Week. The lungis, according to the developer, were inspired by the designs of the Goan costume in addition to the skirts of Ceylon.

The lungi isn't just making a statement on the bridge. A few years back, when musician Raghu Dixit needed to select the seek atrioventricular bundle, the Raghu Dixit Job, he was very clear that he intended to sport the lungi. "That's what I put on while growing up in Mysore," states Dixit, who has actually produced his very own brand name of Indian folk music and also made it an international phenomenon. He was certain the lungi would be well gotten and also time has verified him right. "Individuals like it in India as well as particularly abroad, and think it is culturally distinct and also great," says the musician. A couple of weeks earlier, when Madras Christian University celebrated a global get-together, a very first because the college was established 175 years back, a navy blue lungi including MCC-typical caricatures as well as animes was presented to the graduates at the occasion. The animes, drawn by cartoonist as well as graduate Ajit Ninan, included scenes from the university campus. "It was the best gift for the graduates, it provided us our memories of true Chennai design," states MCC alumnus Shailaja Chetlur, that owns Art and Heart Gallery in Chennai.

Conclusion

Lungi events too are currently rather popular in the city. At a pajama event held a time ago, the hosts made a decision the best thing to put on would certainly be lungis, which ended up being a total hit with the guests. "My spouse said it was the comfiest as well as fascinating party-wear he has actually ever used," claims Kamini Raheja, whose husband Rajesh was one of the hosts. And that's potentially the reason the lungi maintains coming full circle.

Remembering Hindustani classical singer Ustad Amir Khan on his 106th birth anniversary. Ustad Amir Khan (August 15, 1912 – February 13, 1974) was a well-known Indian classical vocalist. He is considered one of the most influential figures in Hindustani classical music, and the founder of the Indore Gharana. Amir Khan had a rich baritone voice with a three-octave range, and could move equally effortlessly in any octave. He developed his own gayaki (singing style), influenced by the styles of Abdul Waheed Khan (vilambit tempo), Rajab Ali Khan (taans) and Aman Ali Khan (merukhand). This unique style, known as the Indore Gharana, blends the spiritual flavor and grandeur of dhrupad with the ornate vividness of khyal. Amir Khansahib presented an aesthetically detailed badhat (progression) in ati-vilambit laya (very slow tempo) using bol-alap with merukhandi patterns, followed by gradually speeding up sargams with various ornamentations, taans and bol-taans with complex and unpredictable movements and jumps while preserving the raga structure, and finally a madhyalaya or drut laya (medium or fast tempo) chhota khyal or a ruba'idar tarana. He helped popularize the tarana, as well as khyalnuma compositions in the Dari variant of Persian. While he was famous for his use of merukhand, he did not do a purely merukhandi alap but rather inserted merukhandi passages throughout his performance. Khansahib often used the taals Jhoomra and Ektaal, and generally preferred a simple theka (basic tabla strokes that define the taal) from the tabla accompanist. Even though he had been trained in the sarangi, he generally performed khyals and taranas with only a six-stringed tanpura and tabla for accompaniment. Sometimes he had a subdued harmonium accompaniment, but he almost never used the sarangi. While he could do traditional layakari (rhythmic play), including bol-baant, which he has demonstrated in a few recordings, he generally favored a swara-oriented and alap-dominated style, and his layakari was generally more subtle. His performances had an understated elegance, reverence, restrained passion and an utter lack of showmanship that both moved and awed listeners. According to Kumarprasad Mukhopadhyay's book "The Lost World of Hindustani Music", Bade Ghulam Ali Khan's music was extroverted, exuberant and a crowd-puller, whereas Amir Khan's was an introverted, dignified darbar style. Amir Khansahib believed that poetry was important in khyal compositions, and with his pen name, Sur Rang ("colored in swara"), he has left several compositions. He believed in competition between the genres of classical music and film and other popular music, and he felt that classical renderings needed to be made more beautiful while remaining faithful to the spirit and grammar of the raga. He used to say, "नग़मा वही नग़मा है जो रूह सुने और रूह सुनाए" (music is that which originates from the heart and touches the soul). Besides singing in concerts, Amir Khan also sang film songs in ragas, in a purely classical style, most notably for the films Baiju Bawra, Shabaab and Jhanak Jhanak Payal Baaje. This attempt to introduce classical music to the masses through films significantly boosted Khansahib's visibility and popularity. He also sang a ghazal Rahiye Ab Aisi Jagah for a documentary on Ghalib. Khansahib's disciples include Amarnath, A. Kanan, Ajit Singh Paintal, Akhtar Sadmani, Amarjeet Kaur, Bhimsen Sharma, Gajendra Bakshi, Hridaynath Mangeshkar, Kamal Bose, Kankana Banerjee, Mukund Goswami, Munir Khan, Pradyumna Kumud Mukherjee and Poorabi Mukherjee, Shankar Mazumdar, Singh Brothers, Srikant Bakre and Thomas Ross. His style has also influenced many other singers and instrumentalists, including Baldev Raj Verma, Bhimsen Joshi, Gokulotsavji Maharaj, Mahendra Toke, Piu Sarkhel, Prabha Atre, Rashid Khan, Rasiklal Andharia, Sanhita Nandi, Shanti Sharma, Nikhil Banerjee, the Imdadkhani gharana, and Sultan Khan. Although he referred to his style as the Indore Gharana, he was a firm believer of absorbing elements from various gharanas. Amir Khan was awarded the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award in 1967 and the Padma Bhushan in 1971.

More than 300 prominent individuals, including filmmakers Mira Nair, Nandita Das, actors Naseeruddin Shah, Ratna Pathak Shah, Jaaved Jafferi, Homi K Bhabha, Partha Chatterjee, Anita Desai, Kiran Desai, TM Krishna, Ashish Nandy, and Gaytri Chakravorty Spivak, among others, have signed an open letter, expressing their solidarity with the students of India who have been protesting Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and against the National Register of Citizens (NRC). Extending their support to the students, the signatories said in their letter, “We stand in solidarity with the students and others who are protesting and speaking out against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and against the National Register of Citizens (NRC). We salute their collective cry for upholding the principles of the Constitution of India, with its promise of a plural and diverse society. We are aware that we have not always lived up to that promise, and many of us have too often remained silent in the face of injustice. The gravity of this moment demands that each of us stand for our principles.” Also read: Shah Rukh Khan: ‘I am a Muslim, my wife is a Hindu and my kids are Hindustan’. Watch video Here is the complete text of the letter: An open statement from members of the Creative and Scholarly Community in IndiaWe are artists, filmmakers, writers and scholars. Our work reflects people’s lives, struggles and hopes. We offer our dreams to everyone.But what dream can show us the way in the midst of the present nightmare? Our vision for this nation demands that we speak up now, in the name of our democracy and the constitution that protects it. We stand in solidarity with the students and others who are protesting and speaking out against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and against the National Register of Citizens (NRC). We salute their collective cry for upholding the principles of the Constitution of India, with its promise of a plural and diverse society. We are aware that we have not always lived up to that promise, and many of us have too often remained silent in the face of injustice. The gravity of this moment demands that each of us stand for our principles.The policies and actions of the present government, passed quickly through parliament and without opportunity for public dissent or open discussion, are antithetical to the principle of a secular, inclusive nation. The soul of the nation is threatened. The livelihoods and statehoods of millions of our fellow Indians are at stake. Under the NRC, anyone unable to produce documentation (which, in many cases, does not exist) to prove their ancestry may be rendered stateless. Those deemed“illegal” through the NRC may be eligible for citizenship under the CAA, unless they are Muslim.Contrary to the stated objective of the government, this does not appear to be a benign legislation, only meant to shelter persecuted minorities. The list of exclusions seems to indicate otherwise. Why are minorities from other neighbours like Sri Lanka, China and Myanmar excluded? Isit because the ruling powers in these latter countries are not Muslim? It appears that the legislation believes that only Muslim governments can be perpetrators of religious persecution. Why exclude the most persecuted minorities in the region,the Rohingya of Myanmar or the Uighurs of China? This legislation only acknowledges Muslim perpetrators, never Muslim victims. The aim is transparent: Muslims are the unwelcome Other.This is state-sanctioned religious persecution, and we will not condone it. In Assam and the Northeast, and in Kashmir, the indigenous identity and livelihood is threatened as never before, and we will not condone it. The response of the government and law-enforcement agencies to the distress of its citizens has been callous and high-handed. India has seen the most Internet shutdowns of any democracy in the world. Police brutality has left hundreds injured, including many students from Jamia Milia Islamia University and Aligarh Muslim University. Several citizens have been killed while protesting. Many more have been placed in preventive detention. Section 144 has been imposed in numerous states to curb protests. We need look no further than Kashmir to see how far this government is willing to go to suppress democratic dissent. Kashmir is now living under the longest Internet shutdown ever imposed by a democratic government. Enough is enough.Those of us who have been quiet in the past, our silence ends now. We will be clear-sighted in our dissent. Like our freedom fighters before us, we stand for a secular and inclusive vision of India. We stand with those who bravely oppose anti-Muslim and divisive policies. We stand with those who stand up for democracy. We will be with you on our streets and across all our platforms. We are in solidarity.” Here is a list of some the signatories: Rahman Abbas, Anvita Abbi, Ajayan Adat, Ramona Adhikari, Faraz Ahmad, Anvar Ali, Zaheer Ali, Lalitha Alilu, Shimit Amin, Jyothi Ananthasubbarao, Vidya Das Arora, Sushila Bahanda, Vikas Bajpai, Ritwik Banerjee, Sudeshna Banerjee, Sumanta Banerjee, Susan Barton, Aamir Bashir, Amit Basole, Rakhi Basu, Dev Benegal, Homi Bhabha, Amit Bhaduri, Madhu Bhaduri, Nabakumar Bhattacharyya, Akeel Bilgrami, Rani Day Burra, Sundar Burra, Meena C.
