Boita Bandana, a cultural tribute to ancient maritime activities

People in Odisha celebrate Boita Bandana, a boat festival marking the region's maritime glory. This annual observance occurs on Kartik Purnima, the full moon day in the holy month of Kartik. Boita Bandana is a cultural tribute to Odisha’s ancient maritime activities and trade relations with Southeast Asian countries.

Symbolic Act of Floating Boats:

The most important ritual of Boita Bandana is floating little hand-made boats. They are usually made of plantain or banana stems and other similar natural and traditional materials. Boats are laden with various offerings such as flowers, coins, ‘Kaudis’ or cowries, ‘Pana’ or betel leaves, ‘Guā’ or betel nuts, and a lighted lamp. This symbolic act pays homage to Odisha’s rich maritime history and the courageous sailors who engaged in trade with Southeast Asian nations. The festival serves as a cultural bridge connecting the present generation with the seafaring legacy of their ancestors.

Remembering the Sadhabas:

Boita Bandana echoes the collective consciousness & memories of the past. It commemorates the legacies of the Kalinga Sadhabas – the maritime merchants & seafarers. The origins of this festival descend from an ancient maritime tradition of merchant trade and voyages across the ocean to different regions of Asia, which was well developed in this region known in ancient times as Kalinga. This ancient maritime tradition is preserved through this festival which celebrates the voyages of their ancestors, to Southeast Asian countries, which include mainly present-day Bali, Java, Sumatra, and Borneo in Indonesia, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Cambodia, and all the way to Champa region in Vietnam. Local traditions ascribe the origins of the ritual tradition to around the 3rd century BC as Kalinga was a well-known powerful maritime power with strong trading links across the oceans, especially during the reign of the Maurya empire whose rulers coveted the region for its influence.

Kartika Purnima was considered auspicious for them to begin their voyage. It was during this time of the month as well when the Northeast monsoon winds started blowing from November, which was favorable for the merchant mariners as the winds would guide the sails of their boats across the ocean leading them southwards towards Sri Lanka. Thereafter using the ocean currents to cross the Indian Ocean to reach Southeast Asia where they would carry on sailing across different regions for trade. After trading the ships would take the ocean countercurrent to get back to Sri Lanka in time to take advantage of the Southwest monsoon around May and return home. Hence the families of the traveling sailors used to perform rituals on the day of Kartik Purnima for their safe journey and return, which henceforth became the tradition of Boita Bandana (Worship of the Boats).

Boita Bandana and Jagannath Culture:

At Sri Mandira (Jagannath Puri), the deities wear a variety of attires, or ‘besa’, throughout the year. During the holy month of Kartika, they receive special ‘besa’ outfits. In years when the Kartika month includes six days of ‘Panchaka’ instead of the usual five, the deities wear the rare and unique ‘Nagarjuna Besa’. In this special attire, the deities are dressed like ‘Nagarjuna’, a revered figure. This unique ‘besa’ is a significant part of the Kartika Purnima celebrations in Puri. And, Boita Bandana is every year meant to be celebrated in the early morning of Kartik Purnima.

Boita Bandana serves as a vibrant reminder of Odisha’s historical ties with other maritime civilizations and instills a sense of cultural pride among the people.

So I was working on a little something for @wanpanmas...

What you must understand about me, is that I can never be normal about anything, ever.

Anyway, the prompt was supposed to be hot chocolate.

"What force, what brutality!" "Her power is surely on par with Tatsumaki's." "Thank God she can only manipulate desserts."

From the safety of HA Headquarters, Sitch and Sekinger surveyed the skirmish from every possible angle as it streamed across multiple televisions screens.

High up in the summits, the battle raged on—between the battered, beleagured heroes and the behemoth Swiss Maid that had somehow achieved sentience, and was now intent to wreck havoc across the snow-crested alps of K-City.

With a blood-curdling cry and a shake of her pigtails, the Swiss Miss dug her claws into the earth, ripped up a stretch of topsoil and began to wrap the earth around itself, layer by layer—as if storing a yoga mat, or a fruit rollup of some sort. Tanks, armored cars, entire infantry divisions—all abruptly squished together and immobalized like so much cream filling.

"A Swiss roll attack," Sekinger said. "We should have guessed."

"Metal Bat. Garou. Come in," Sitch spoke frantically into his ear piece. "Are you still there?"

"We're still here." Badd's voice came through, but barely. "We got lucky."

Garou's connection wasn't much better. "How's the backup situation?"

"I'll have to check." Sitch's assistant switched the video feed—bad news, all of it. Every city was beset by its own mascot disaster:

- Q City: Overrun by malevolent Tropicana Oranges. Watchdog Man, trapped in an endless game of fetch.

- A City: Plagued by Coca Cola Polar Bears. Zombieman was rapidly losing limbs.

- In Smelly Lid Prison, the Kool-Aid Man barrelled through wall after wall of reinforced concrete. Most of the prisoners had been freed, but Puri Puri had been buried under several cartloads of rubble.

Sekinger and Sitch looked at each other grimly. Their silence spoke volumes.

"Don't everybody answer at once." Garou's disdain was evident.

"And what about Caped Baldy, huh? What's he up to?"

Sitch cleared his throat. "We don't know. Nobody can reach him."

.......

While the K-City Alps were in shambles, the city below was fine.

Shielded from the fracas by several picturesque mountain ranges, the citizens went about their normal holiday preparations—stringing lights, decorating trees, and exploring the scenic Christmas Market that had popped up in the City Square.

As always, the line for hot chocolate snaked halfway across the block. It wasn't Saitama's idea of a good time, but Genos finally had a day off, and this is what Genos wanted to do with it. So Saitama had tagged along, for support.

Besides, it was nice to see the kid get excited about something other than murder, for once.

Saitama switched his phone to "silent" and mentally prepared himself for another lecture on wave machines.

"Wave mechanics," Genos corrected. "The Hot Chocolate effect is a phenomena of wave mechanics wherein—"

"—face it, Gen. It's a cool idea but that chocolate's never getting out of the swimming pool. It's way too sticky to put in a wave machine.”

"…indeed." Genos deferred to his sensei with a polite nod, and then gently changed the subject to something more accessible.

"Thank you for accompanying me today, Sensei. Are you sure that the Hero Association does not require your presence? They are often short-staffed during the holidays."

"Oh yeah," Saitama said, checking his pager. "I'm getting all these messages about the Swiss Miss. Isn't she supposed to be neutral?"

"Switzerland is a famously neutral entity," Genos confirmed. "Perhaps they refer to the Swiss Guard."

"That would explain why they’re Threat Level God,” Saitama murmured. “Well. I’m sure the Pope can handle it.”

Saitama promptly slipped his phone back into his pocket and went back to thinking about chocolate swimming pools.

PAVITR, i need more hcs, analysis… whatever you like tbh, i just love the way you write about Spider-Verse characters

Aww, thank you!

I love writing about Pavitr, I wish he was real so bad

I can write headcanons, but for the analysis part, I think I've gone over most of what I can think of 😭 If anyone has any ideas for scenes or anything you want me to research about him, let me know and I'll fs cook up some posts, but for now the creativity is on a down low :/.

Anyway here are some Pavitr headcanons that I absolutely adore!

Pavitr Prabhakar/Spider-man India Headcanons!:

I always headcanon him as of South Indian descent

Basically, I like to think he was a small town boy from either Andrapradesh (no I'm not projecting) or Tamil Nadu

And he moved to Mumbattan after his parents died when he was young to live with his Auntie Maya and Uncle Bhim (this is canon btw)

I like to think that he speaks one of the South Indian languages, either Telugu/Tamil/Malayalam and sometimes accidentally mixes it in when he speaks Hindi

He loves going to temple with his Aunt Maya

He also loves wearing traditional wear even though most his age don't because it just makes him feel very connected to his culture

Considering the fact that he got his powers from an ancient yogi, he's probably a fairly strict Hindu

He's probably vegetarian like a lot of Hindus in India are

His favorite street food is pani puri (still not projecting) especially the traditional kind but he likes the sweeter versions as well

Loves coconuts and coconut water, hes constantly drinking it while on patrol or during missions cuz its good for you and it gives him energy healthily

hes a good cook and he makes his auntie teach him how to make different snacks so he can show off to Gayatri

He learned how to make Sarson Ka Saag, a traditional Punjabi dish (at least thats what my research says) just for Gayatri

I headcanon Gayatri as punjabi sikh cuz her dad wears a turban

Indian schools are very strict on being late and stuff

So I think Pav probably came to school late once cuz of Spider-man stuff and he got severely punished so he never came late again

Like hes always early cuz he'd rather do that than be stuck outside the school waiting for an hour or being forced to run laps as punishment

yes they do that, idk if they do it anymore but I know some schools used to do that 💀

He probably has a really nice voice, like he sings Carnatic music and practices it

This also connects with him being from South India cuz Carnatic music originated in South India <3

He watched the Indian serials with his auntie all the time

like the really long ones our grandmothers watch with the weird sound effects and zero plot

theyre like telenovelas but worse and he loves them

These are the only ones I have rn but if I think of more I'll post them lol

I love him so much 😭

Marahuyo Project Eps 5 & 6 Stray Thoughts

Last time, Lorie decided to befriend King and Venice, and joined their club. When someone spray painted the mural of Ino’s ancestor, the other kids and dean blamed King, but Lorie stepped forward to claim she did it as well. The queer club was punished with community service to clean the beach, and the three bonded over their time together. We learned that Lorie’s queer awakening is complicated by her anger at her father’s infidelity (and men as a whole as a result). We learned about a young person who died on the beach, revealed to be a close friend of Venice’s and Archie named Christina. Archie refuses to use Christina’s name because he believes it was her queerness that got her killed, and it’s why he’s trying to protect Venice by demanding she withdraw from her expression of herself. We also learned that Ino’s dad likely left their family for a queer relationship, Ino is admittedly falling for King, and his mom told him directly to not be gay. Also, King’s mom cut his hair in his sleep and I am still pissed about it.

Episode 5: Hunyango

I do love the bits of history and mythology we get at the beginning of each episode. I liked how this one highlighted the journeys of many of the characters.

Few things more powerful than a bunch of out kids enjoying an early morning strut. Poor Lorena, though. She wasn’t ready for this divide between her and Lili.

Oh good. It was just Ino with a torch. I clearly play too much d20 fantasy.

The kids are right. Naming things is hard.

Growing up, my dad thought I might become a priest.

I respect this line that Venice is walking in the conversation with Archie to reach through his walls.

Oh wow. Archie is so stressed that he’s scratched up the whole back of his neck. That’s uncomfortable.

Aw, Venice. I’m enjoying the brainstorming session. It’s good to model what planning communication with people not predisposed to listen to you. I also love that they decided to build their plan around the local context of Marahuyo and then immediately transitioned to Lorie legitimately doing research about her home.

Lorie, your friend looks worried. Can you not look at her lips like you wanna kiss her right now?

Whoa, what’s going on with Lili? Are we going beyond the Q in the acronym?

Ino is also correct. You cannot frame a presentation around a local context without directly engaging with the locals who are the context.

🎶 Flashback! Who’s that?? 🎶

Oh, Ino, what have you been through that you thought to ask before hugging King?

I’m very curious about the statue they uncovered on the beach.

Hold on, did Venice add Christina’s name to hers as a way to honor her? I need to lay down for a bit.

Ah, so we’re definitely going into rare presentation with Lili. I am seated (once I get off the floor from the last bullet).

Oh no. Please stop showing me Archie’s neck. It’s a good visual to show how these internalized pressures and traumas express in physical ways, but oof.

Episode 6: Sirena

Super amped about these kids taking the research component seriously within their specific connections. Lorie got info that her dad has access to as the mayor. Venice got info from the church through Archie. King got equipment so they can conduct interviews. Now they’re all gathered and reviewing the information they have.

“Joining us as an ally.” Wow, so many points to this show for reminding people that sometimes an ally is someone who isn’t ready to or can’t come out. In any case, they are with us in the movement.

Poor Venice. She just doesn’t know things.

Hold on…I think I recognize the Lola Puri actress. I will look her up when we get to the credits.

Good job on this show for priming people with the earlier lesson about babaylans for this reveal here.

Boys, are we doing a gay pinkie touch during the critical history lesson?

Hey, this is really good. They have an oral history now connecting a prized tradition to the yearnings of a respected ancestor for another man who turned on him in a cruel way. Unfortunately, the villain of this story happens to be one of Ino’s ancestors. Sad, but unsurprising, that a homophobe gained prominence for outing and robbing a queer man.

I’m really touched by how all of the kids had such an emotional reaction to the story and how it reflected some of their own feelings. I deeply appreciate this show for letting me see others experience how queer history feels for me.

Goddamit, Marco, I was enjoying a complicated, difficult moment. Can you fuck off?

Thank you, Lili, for destroying this man. Make sure to hydrate.

Who is this man at the dinner table in Ino’s house? It’s probably not the dad, right?

And there it is again: Venice telling Archie that courage isn’t built around coming out. He still helped them where it counted.

I’m so sick of this priest.

I do love Juvy. She’s usually so correct and King actually listens to her.

“Who are you?” “Incorrect answer! I already know your name.”

On the real. I’m so proud of Ino. The first person you have to say it to is yourself.

Oh noooo. This is probably actually Ino’s dad. This scene is about to get even uglier.

Mmmm. I don’t like Lili giving up her shorts and then immediately going to a scene where she has to get rough with Marco.

Wow, this is horrible. What a way to end this episode.

I did recognize the Lola actress! That's Angie Castrence! I knew it was Gavreel’s homophobic aunt from Gameboys 2! This was a great 6th episode with very clear ideas and goals. This episode focused completely on coming out, who it’s for, and whether it’s necessary. I like that we had three characters all scared to come out, but it’s eating away at all of them. Archie is literally tearing his neck apart in anxiety. Ino is say gay and in love that it’s leaking out of him, to the point that he was forced to confront his own mom. Lili has been outed by Marco. I love that all of our out characters reassured our closeted characters that they didn’t need to come out. Can’t believe I’ve got two shows in contention for show of the year right now.

so there's no hindi version of phoenix wright but it absolutely SHOULD exist because it would be so good listen-

(i am fully "localising" this because if the english and french versions of the game were allowed to then so am i, dammit)

it would take place in some big city in india, probably mumbai so that the steel samurai stuff can be connected to bollywood

the last time i was in mumbai i literally saw a japanese temple like down the road from my grandparents' building so the japanese influences aren't even that out of place. it's a big city okay, it could totally work

kurain village can be a "gaon" (village) somewhere in the maharastrian countryside. the fey manor even feels a lot like the big family houses you get out in gaon, though with a lot more japanese influence of course

the thought of pearl calling maya "maya didi" is melting my heart omg ("didi" means "big sister" but you can also use it on people who aren't literally your sister)

maya can still be called maya, it's a common name in india

and morgan would get so mad whenever phoenix doesn't call maya "maya-ji" ("ji" is a respectful suffix like "-sama" in japanese). he'd be like SHE'S MY BEST FRIEND, WHY TF WOULD I CALL HER "MAYA-JI"

edgeworth and gumshoe would have THE jai dixit and ali bhai dynamic from dhoom. without the motorbikes, of course. gumshoe would call people "yaar" instead of "pal" (it means the same thing).

larry is circuit. i don't know how else to put that. if you understand then you understand and if you don't, you don't.

speaking of, furio tigre would ABSOLUTELY refer to himself with the pronoun "apun" (a first-person pronoun often used by mafia-type characters) and call people "mamu" ("sucker")

OH AND WOCKY WOULD TOO. wocky would speak in the most munnabhai slang you ever heard. he would also mix english, hindi, marathi, gujarati, punjabi and bengali all in the same sentence. nigh incomprehensible.

lotta hart... while it makes sense to make her from south india, i feel like they get negatively stereotyped enough as is and they deserve better. so you know what? she can be gujju. lotta is from surat now and she talks like it. she's got that "hurati" accent. morgan fey hears her with her પાણી instead of पानी and ગોળી instead of गोली and is immediately like "get out >:("

wendy oldbag being one of those desi grannies is absolutely brilliant lmao

sister bikini being a desi auntie is even better

me and my brother have been calling hindi manfred von karma "manoj karma" for funsies so i've decided to keep it (the word "karma" is of indian origin so it works perfectly)

i haven't come up with pun names for people yet but phoenix, apollo and athena can keep their english first names. seriously, in mumbai you see places with those names all the time. especially apollo. it is inescapable.

^see? i was DYING. anyways

MAYA'S TRADEMARK FAVOURITE FOOD SHOULD BE PANI PURI ("gol guppa" for you dehli peeps), NO I AM NOT TAKING CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM

khura'in, being likely in the himalayas somewhere near bhutan (based on their climate and culture), would still be a few hours' plane journey from mumbai so it still works. a lot of the khura'inese characters can keep their same names too, eg "nahyuta sahdmadhi" already sounds very very sanskrit to my ears (sanskrit is the south asian equivalent of what latin is in europe). and also have you seen how he dresses because it's clearly a sherwani (indian/pakistani formal clothing) and amara's idle animation is clearly inspired by art of hindu deities and rafya's middle name is literally padma and oh my god there is so much shared cultural influence they are CLEARLY countries that border each other

(the "kh" sound strongly present in the khura'inese language is also giving me south asian vibes...)

me and my brother already joke about how shah rukh khan would totally make a great mr reus/roger retinz. LISTEN okay he absolutely would. he's got that villain swag.

you don't even need to change the other guy's real name ("manov mistree") because that already sounds like an indian name. do you know how common the surname "mistry" is in some parts?? do you know how many gazillions of people i personally know who have names that sound exactly like that??? and roger retinz is the ratings rajah. RAJAH (king). i've already been headcanoning him as desi since the first time i played aa6. anyway shah rukh khan character vibes

(but then again amir khan has literally played an evil magician in a bollywood movie before, so he could pull it off too i think...)

hindi has informal ("tu"), medium ("tum") and formal ("aap") second-person pronouns. you could have SO MUCH FUN with those. franziska would call literally everyone "tu" to assert dominance while edgeworth would call literally everyone "aap" to keep them distant. siblings amirite

franziska referring to miles as "mera chhota bhai" is actually killing me oh my god. that's her chhota bhai you guys skjdhkjfhldjssdrgse

feenie calling dahlia "dollie" works really well because i have like seven relatives with the nickname "dollie" so i'm presuming it must be common

oh yes, and mumbai does occasionally get earthquakes so the DL-6 incident still makes sense

india also has an active space programme so the UR-1 incident does too

and there's a monsoon season with storms so the SL-9 incident does as well ahahhahahhaa this is sO GOOD (okay in all fairness the monsoon season is not in february, when the case takes place... whatever whatever it's FINE i can make it work somehow)

you can use three scripts for the one translation -- english romanisation (for NRIs like me who suck at hindi...), the devanagari script commonly used to write hindi, and the urdu script so that urdu speakers can play too (for the most part the languages are mutually intelligible, you wouldn't need to change the dialogue at all, only the writing system)

if anyone out there is better at hindi than i am and wants to make a fan translation please do, it would be so iconic

Are Hybrid DJ Setups the Future? Combining Analog and Digital for the Ultimate Performance

In the ever-evolving world of DJing, the debate between analog and digital setups has sparked creativity and innovation, giving rise to hybrid DJ setups. These setups blend the tactile charm of analog equipment with the versatility of digital technology, offering DJs the best of both worlds. But are hybrid DJ setups truly the future of the craft? Let’s explore the concept, benefits, challenges, and potential of hybrid setups.

What Is a Hybrid DJ Setup?

A hybrid DJ setup integrates elements of traditional analog equipment—like turntables or mixers—with digital tools such as DJ controllers, laptops, and software. This combination enables DJs to harness the authenticity and feel of vinyl while leveraging the precision, features, and convenience of modern digital gear.

Why Go Hybrid?

1. Tactile and Creative Freedom

One of the biggest advantages of hybrid setups is the tactile control that turntables and analog mixers provide. Many DJs value the physical connection with their music, finding it enhances their creativity during performances. Meanwhile, digital tools expand possibilities with features like real-time effects, looping, and sample triggering.

2. Access to Vast Music Libraries

Hybrid setups allow DJs to mix vinyl records while also accessing extensive digital music collections. This is especially useful for those who love the sound of vinyl but need the convenience and variety of digital tracks for diverse gigs.

3. Enhanced Performance Features

Digital elements bring advanced functionalities such as tempo syncing, waveform visualization, and MIDI mapping. These features enable DJs to push boundaries, create complex mashups, and perform more dynamic sets.

4. Adaptability

Hybrid setups are incredibly versatile, making them suitable for various venues, audiences, and music styles. DJs can switch between analog and digital sources seamlessly, catering to specific performance needs.

Challenges of Hybrid DJ Setups

While hybrid setups are exciting, they come with their own set of challenges:

Learning Curve: Understanding both analog and digital systems requires significant technical knowledge and practice.

Higher Costs: Investing in both analog and digital equipment can be expensive, especially when factoring in maintenance for turntables and purchasing high-quality software.

Setup Complexity: Combining multiple types of equipment often results in more complicated wiring and setup processes, increasing the risk of technical glitches during live performances.

Innovations Driving the Hybrid Movement

Technological advancements have played a key role in making hybrid setups more practical and appealing. Innovations such as timecode vinyl, which allows DJs to manipulate digital audio files using traditional turntables, are blurring the lines between analog and digital. Additionally, DJ software has evolved to integrate seamlessly with both analog and digital equipment, creating a unified workflow.

Popular Configurations for Hybrid DJ Setups

Turntables with Timecode Vinyl and DJ Software: This classic hybrid configuration uses traditional turntables and vinyl to control digital tracks via software like Serato or Rekordbox.

Analog Mixer with Digital Inputs: Many DJs pair an analog mixer with digital sources such as USB drives or laptops, allowing for analog warmth with digital precision.

Standalone Controllers with Vinyl Integration: Modern DJ controllers often include phono inputs, enabling DJs to incorporate vinyl into their digital workflows.

The Future of Hybrid DJing

Hybrid DJ setups reflect the ongoing evolution of the craft, combining tradition with innovation. As technology continues to advance, we can expect these setups to become more streamlined, affordable, and accessible. Features like AI-driven mixing tools, enhanced connectivity, and immersive soundscapes are likely to shape the next generation of hybrid DJ systems.

While some purists may argue for the supremacy of analog or digital, hybrid setups demonstrate that combining the strengths of both can create something truly unique. For DJs who value creativity, flexibility, and the ability to cater to diverse audiences, hybrid setups are poised to become a mainstay in the industry.

When exploring hybrid DJing, it’s crucial to invest in reliable equipment. Buying from professional or reputable audio shops like VIP PRO AUDIO ensures that you get high-quality gear, expert advice, and ongoing support to enhance your performances.

The Eternal Melodies of Guzaarish: A Ruh Radio Tribute

When we talk about music that lingers in the soul, Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Guzaarish (2010) stands tall as an emblem of emotional depth and musical brilliance. The film, starring Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, delves into themes of love, resilience, and the dignity of choice. Its music, composed by Bhansali himself, with lyrics penned by Vibhu Puri and A. M. Turaz, is a rich tapestry of melody and poetry that has enchanted listeners for over a decade. On Ruh Radio, 1440 AM, we often find ourselves revisiting these timeless tracks, and today, we invite you to reflect on their legacy.

1. "Tera Zikr"

This hauntingly beautiful ballad, sung by Shail Hada, is the heart of Guzaarish. With its minimalist arrangement and tender lyrics, it embodies the essence of unspoken emotions. At Ruh Radio, we see this song as the perfect companion for quiet, introspective evenings.

2. "Udi"

Performed by Sunidhi Chauhan, "Udi" is an upbeat contrast to the film’s somber undertone. Its flamenco-inspired beats celebrate freedom and life, making it a regular feature in our "Spirited Sounds" segment. Listeners of 1440 AM have often called in to share how this song uplifts their mood.

3. "Sau Gram Zindagi"

With Kunal Ganjawala's evocative voice, this track is a poignant ode to the fleeting nature of life. At Ruh Radio, we use this piece to spark conversations about gratitude and living in the moment.

4. "Jaane Kiske Khwaab"

This melancholic melody, sung by KK, is an anthem of yearning and unfulfilled dreams. Its orchestral arrangement blends seamlessly with the emotional depth of its lyrics, often stirring reflective discussions on our station.

5. "Sharminda Hoon"

Rashid Khan’s soulful rendition of "Sharminda Hoon" echoes themes of regret and redemption. On Ruh Radio’s late-night shows, this track resonates with listeners who seek solace in music.

6. "Chand Ki Katori"

Rendered by Harshdeep Kaur, this lullaby-like composition feels like a warm embrace. Its soothing quality is why we include it in our "Ruh Ki Sargam" segment, dedicated to soulful melodies.

7. "Daayein Baayein"

K.K.'s expressive voice captures the bittersweet struggles of life in this playful yet profound track. Its placement in Guzaarish adds layers to Ethan's character, and it has become a listener favorite on our station.

The Ruh Radio Connection

At 1440 AM, we believe that music is more than just entertainment—it's a reflection of the human spirit. The songs of Guzaarish perfectly encapsulate this philosophy, offering a blend of profound emotions and timeless compositions. By revisiting these tracks, we celebrate not just a cinematic masterpiece but also the universal power of music to heal, inspire, and connect.

So, whether you're tuning in during your morning commute or relaxing at home, let the magic of Guzaarish fill the airwaves. Remember, Ruh Radio is here to bring you closer to the songs that speak to your soul.

Balinese dance

Balinese dance is an ancient dance tradition that is part of the religious and artistic expression among the Balinese people of Bali island, Indonesia. Balinese dance is dynamic, angular, and intensely expressive.

Region: Asia and the Pacific

Legong Keraton Dance performance with Gamelan ensemble in Puri Saren Ubud, Bali, Indonesia

There is a great richness of dance forms and styles in Bali; and particularly notable are those ritualistic dance dramas which involve Rangda, the witch, and the great beast Barong. Most of the dances in Bali are connected to Hindu or traditional folk rituals, such as the Sanghyang Dedari sacred dance that invokes benevolent hyang spirits, believed to possess the dancers in a trance state during the performance. Other Balinese dances are not linked to religious rituals and are created for certain occasions or purposes, such as the Baris or Pendet welcoming dances and Joged dance, which is a social dance for entertainment.

Tumblr is home

Why ?

Well here no one has met each other not even once but they are so connected, it's starts with those random reblogs,notes,a bit stalking:P and bam you are friends,mutuals for life. Later on you talk and find huh we have so much in common or waoo where were you bro my whole life vali vibe. Nothing much you just have people here that no matter what happens kuch bhi koi kaand ho ya faltu anon kai lafde ya life mai koi dikkat agr unhe pata chala then tuh bhai sb bhid jainge haha some peacefully, some with very colourful words:P but the main thing they are there having your back no matter what.

Honestly the people here know you much better than people you're with. If you post some vry sad or depressing content they will just check in with you like sb thik ? Kuch hua bta hum hain !! Or messages like heyy i m here of you if wanna talk or not and that's it after that they give you the space sometimes knowing that koi hai that is enough. If you're posting something happy like you got the college you wanted or cracked some exam or finally overcame that writers block n wrote something after a long time dude they are going to be there cheering you up supporting giving and wishing you the best dil se just pure feelings some with words some with reblogs but there always.

This has always been a kind community plz don't fuck that up for others. Don't spread hate you have opinions fine sabki hote hain but atleast have a decency of using your words correctly bro. Words have a tendency to stick till very end, you don't know ki apke judgements aur opinions doosre ko kaise effect krte hain. You have some issue with someone wtf unse baat kro what is this with sharing it with puri duniya. I haven't been here that long or interacted much but i have seen that people coming on anon really just fuck with your mind i mean bhai aapko kya "they can do whatever they want do you know them... that's ryt you don't". If someone is posting something sad then people are like you are spreading negativity bhai itni dikkat hai na just freaking unfollow kon keh ra dekhne ko tumhe.

Tumblr has been a place for lots of people who first started from here be it writers, poets,singers, dancer , you just name it the reason bcz there was always something supporting understanding about it.

Hence spread love and if you know apke opinions sai koi effect ho ra just talk to them ho sakta baat krne sai he sort ho jae and bhai koi zaroori nhi hai sort he krna hai dikkat hai na then ek block ar unfollow button hai tumblr pr use it. Don't make this a place where people have to actually want to leave that just ain't right.
