On Friendship Day evening – the crowd convened on fatehsagar to enjoy the Rocking Performance of the ‘Octive Band’ who represented the theme of Friendship with the Nature in the event ‘Karo Dosti Nature ke Sath’. 🙂

The motive of the event was to make people befriend the Nature and persuade them to grow green and plant trees this Monsoon. 1000 plants were distributed during the event to support this motive. The concept of the Event was by the young Chaps of Udaipur – Sahil Thakur and Piyush. The event commenced at 6p.m. which was hosted by Anchor Piyush and Managed by Frozen Apple Events and Entertainment. The event was presented by Our Real Estate Pvt. Ltd. and ‘The Safal Society of Education & Social Welfare’ and Supported by – 94.3 My Fm, Swastik Digital Studio, Amul Namkeen, Rajkamal Tent House, Ashoka Bakery, JMB and your very own UdaipurBlog.com 🙂

[Friendship Day Special] Screening of Singham for entire Police Force

1 Comment on [Friendship Day Special] Screening of Singham for entire Police Force

Special screening of Singham | UdaipurBlog

This Friendship day, 7th August 2011, Ashoka Cinema and Picture Palace Cinema organised a free special show of the movie Singham (starring Ajay Devgn and Prakash Raj, directed by Rohit Shetty) for the entire Police Force of Udaipur. The show started at about 10:15 a.m. and the management got a whopping response from the entire department, with around 700 officers and other members of the Police coming to see the movie at Picture Palace.

Singham – The film is set in a small village in Maharashta, where corruption is rife and crooked politicians call the shots. Ajay Devgn’s character Bajirao Singham is an honest police officer who has the single minded mission to eradicate all the corruption by any means possible. He is inspiring and defines the role of a Police officer. He exemplifies honesty and the will to drive a positive change. These are the traits we all wish to see in our Police.

It is a belief that today Cinema is the most influential form of entertainment. Films are creating an unprecedented impact on our generation and socially-responsible-movies like Singham are taking lead. On the Friendships Day, and a few days before Independence Day, the initiative to bring the entire Police force together under one roof, reminding them that they are the friends of the society and it is their utmost responsibility to maintain our freedom, is absolutely a great thinking and implementation by the management.

“Ashoka Cinema & Picture Palace Cinema have been providing quality entertainment to the City of Udaipur since 1945 and shall continue to do so for times to come. We always hope that inspiring movies, motivational movies, and movies with a message continue to release at our cinemas and entertain the people. We express are happiness and pride that Udaipur’s Police have been always around in times of trouble and have kept this city safe and peaceful. We express our gratitude towards them on this Friendship Day for being with us always. We also thank the department for allowing us to have this screening as our humble contribution towards betterment of our society.” said Mr. Mukund Sanghi, on behalf of Ashoka Cinema & Picture Palace Cinema.

A Perfectly Inspiring class by the Missile Man

Post author By Mujtaba R.G.

1 Comment on A Perfectly Inspiring class by the Missile Man

APJ Abdul Kalam is a man of great vision, an eminent scientist and engineer who served as the 11th President of India from the period 2002 to 2007. A person with the pure and down to earth personality was in the city of lakes yesterday. He arrived at the Maharana Pratap international airport at 3:30 P.M., and went straight to the circuit house for rest, where he enjoyed the pleasing and every refreshing view of our own Fatehsagar. After resting for about an hour Kalam sir took the the class of the Lakecity students in Delhi Public School at Chitrakoot Nagar. One could also see the crowd waiting outside for Dr. Kalam to have a view of our very own people’s president. In his half an hour class in DPS, the ironic missile man of India firstly asked the students about what they wanted to become in their future life. In this process he found that there were majority of the students who wanted to become engineers and lesser wanted to become a teacher.

Talking about building a personality, he added that one should have the knowledge as well as the purity of the heart. In this process he gave the students the knowledge equation i.e.

Knowledge = Creativity + Purity in heart + Courage

In his speech he did not forget to mention the role of mother in the prosperity of the nation. In the series of questions and confusion many students raised their points to the iconic man. In this chain he told the students about how he enjoys his role of a teacher. On the question about India’s possibility to become the superpower by 2020, Dr. Kalam again reminds the role of a mother in nation building and explains “If a child keeps his mother happy, he will sure keep the family happy, if he makes the family happy he will surely make the Udaipur happy, and if he makes the Udaipur happy he makes Rajasthan happy, if he keeps the Rajasthan happy he indeed keeps the India happy and if country is happy then what more do you need to make the country a super power.”

On being asked about his source of inspiration, Dr. Kalam did not forget to mention his teacher V. Subrramanium Iyyer. On a question about why India is always giving a handful of friendship to Pakistan and is not using this hand to slap him for the activities, Kalam quoted “strength respects strength” and explained that being a democratic country we are not supposed to risk the lives of 112 billion people who rely on us.

Dr. Kalam, the teacher of ideas and an environment ambassador inaugurated the Eco Club of the School by watering a plant. In the end with a conversation with the principal of Delhi Public School, she shared her experience about the program and also felt honored as the great personality was between them in their very own campus. The facility provided by the school and the arrangements for the program was excellent. And they wish to have many more interactions of the eminent personalities with the ordinary students of Udaipur in the coming times.

1 Comment on Lakecity floated in the Voice of Shahnawaz

Who doesn’t know about Shahnawaz of Deewana Group, who has already won hearts of lakhs of people all over India? Udaipur is proud to be the home town of such a talented singer.

Our very own Shahnawaz, popularly known as Bunty, visited Udaipur yesterday.He had visits to few schools and to the candle march at fatehsagar organized by The Yuvaz in the evening, to pay tribute to the victims of the recent blasts in Mumbai.

Then Bunty moved to Celebration Mall where his rocking live show was planned and well executed. He was welcomed by Ex-Mayor Mr. Yudhishtir Kumawat. Mr. Kumawat also sang the romantic number “Pal Pal Dil K Paas” and received a great applaud from the audience. The event was hosted by RJ Piyush Meghwal. Shahnawaz poured the magic of his enchanting voice in the air by singing many songs like “Zindagi Maut Na Ban Jaye”, “Vande-Mataram”, “Sabse Aage Hoge Hindustani”, etc. These songs added greatly to the glow of the event.

Then he introduced himself to the people of Lakecity telling about his relations with the city, and the support of his family, teachers and all near and dear ones, thanking the people without whom he wouldns have been at this platform, and expressing happiness of fulfilment of his desire to see his daughter. Lastly he requested the people to vote for his Deewana group and make them win the title of X-factor India. His voting id is XF 01 which is to be sent at 5252525.
