OPENSPACE - JINDAL FOUNDATION FOR DEVELOPMENT

OPENSPACE is a platform for the development of cultural, artistic, educational, intellectual or any other form of expression. As the name suggests, it is an abstract and ideological space that promotes dialogue and debate, a space that harbours experimentation, exploration and expansion of ideas and skills. A space that aims to push the limits of creative thinking and dissolve boundaries. An open space that is always awaiting a performance.

INDIQUE -

Simone Ahuja presents vignettes from her documentaries titled "Indique: Untold stories of contemporary India" touching upon subjects such as ecotourism in India, luxury travel, ayurvedic spas, India's burgeoning wine industry and the Indian National Rugby Team. The series is airing nationally in the US this year, on international airlines, and will be broadcast in India on Zee TV shortly. Providing a unique palette of images from the subcontinent, Indique brings global audiences a slice of today's India – one that marries the traditional with the contemporary. The Indique series provides a unique platform to discuss images of India in global media - how are they changing and why are they important?

PANEL DISCUSSION -

The screening of the film clips are followed by a panel discussion where luminaries from different fields share their personal experiences. Panelists dicuss their respective roles in contributing towards a strong and contemporary image of brand India. Sachin Pilot shares his political experience, polo player Angad Kalan talks about the new image for India that polo has created overseas, actor Chitrangda provides her opinion on global cinema, designer Suneet Varma brings in the fashion perspective and industrialist and MP Naveen Jindal shares his thoughts on the subject in a gripping panel discussion moderated by PR Guru Dilip Cherian.
