Anthony, Indian Bollywood has become so commercialised and crass,
that I will cite on example.The famous Indian singer, Lata mangeshkar (above 80
yrs now) was invited to garce an occasion, which she declined citing her
health. Picqued, the sponsors had called up on one mediocre singer to imitate
her and it seems she made remarks denigrating the famous singer. Many people
were disgusted at this inappropriate display.When she was asked to react, Lata
simply said, "India is a free country."
This is what I call 'Grace'.
Lata is the recipent of the highst civilian honour in India, Bharat Ratna
(meaning Gem of India), awarded by the Government. It is said, that when she
sang a song about the dead soldiers on the India-China war front , the then
Prime Minister, Nehru was in tears. And she is famous for her prayer song ,
"Vaishnava Ganato", a fovourite of Mahatma Gandhi.The video I had posted in my
fist message on this subject, from the Indian film, 'Anupama", you can see how
dignified she seems in her singing, with matching charm of the actress of
yester years, Sharmila Tagore..Vijaya Kumar Marla
