Lamakaan
This month Lamakaan brings films of one of the greatest and most influential filmmakers in the world of cinema.

About Andrei Tarkovsky: Andrei Arsenyevich Tarkovsky (Russian: Андрей Арсеньевич Тарковский, IPA: [ɐnˈdrʲej ɐrˈsʲenʲjɪvʲɪtɕ tɐrˈkofskʲɪj]; 4 April 1932 – 29 December 1986) was a Russian filmmaker. Widely considered one of cinema's greatest and most influential directors, his films explore spiritual and metaphysical themes. They are noted for their slow pacing, long takes, dreamlike visual imagery, and preoccupation with nature and memory.

Tarkovsky studied film at Moscow's VGIK under filmmaker Mikhail Romm and subsequently directed his first five features in the Soviet Union: Ivan's Childhood (1962), Andrei Rublev (1966), Solaris (1972), Mirror (1975), and Stalker (1979). A number of his films from this period are ranked among the best films ever made. After years of creative conflict with state film authorities, Tarkovsky left the country in 1979 and made his final two films abroad; Nostalghia (1983) and The Sacrifice (1986) were produced in Italy and Sweden, respectively. In 1986, he also published a book about cinema and art entitled Sculpting in Time. He died later that year of cancer, possibly caused by the toxic locations used in the filming of Stalker.

Tarkovsky was the recipient of several awards at the Cannes Film Festival throughout his career (including the FIPRESCI prize, the Prize of the Ecumenical Jury, and the Grand Prix Spécial du Jury and winner of the Golden Lion award at the Venice Film Festival for his debut film Ivan's Childhood. In 1990, he was posthumously awarded the Soviet Union's prestigious Lenin Prize. Three of his films—Andrei Rublev, Mirror, and Stalker—were featured in Sight & Sound's 2012 poll of the 100 greatest films of all time.

Film Title: The Sacrifice | 1986 | 142 minutes | Russian language subtitled in English |

The Sacrifice (Swedish: Offret) is a 1986 drama film written and directed by Andrei Tarkovsky. Starring Erland Josephson, the film was produced by the Swedish Film Institute. Many of the crew were alumni of Ingmar Bergman's films.

The Sacrifice centers on a middle-aged intellectual who attempts to bargain with God to stop an impending nuclear holocaust. The film combines pagan and Christian religious themes; Tarkovsky called it a "parable".

Water in a Broken Pot by Yogesh
Tue Apr 25, 7:00 PM
Lamakaan & HBT
Lamakaan invites you to a book launch and talk about 'Water in a Broken Pot: a memoir' by Yogesh Maitreya.

About the book: Incredibly moving and hauntingly honest, Water in a Broken Pot is the memoir of Yogesh Maitreya, a leading independent Indian Dalit
publisher, writer, and poet. Encompassing experiences of pain, loneliness, deprivation,
alienation, and the political consciousness of his caste identity, this intimately moving memoir is a story of resilience and raw brutality. Growing up in a working-class family with meagre wages to get by in life, Yogesh writes of his father’s struggle
against alcohol and passion for cinema; of
intergenerational dreams shattered; working
day and night shifts in factories; the struggle
of being lost, overlooked, and unmentored in
India’s schooling, college, and university
systems that continue to be casteist,
exclusionary and hostile, and feelings of lovelessness, loss, and heartaches.

Having hopped from gig to gig to make ends
meet, he writes of his eventual discovery of the
the written word, literature, and the Ambedkarite
legacy, which helped shape his dreams, identity
and the eventual career choice of publishing
books. In sharing his story, this fresh and
a radical voice tells his truth in the frankest
and unfiltered of ways, as it happened, giving
us readers permission to also be vulnerable in telling our tales.

About the Author: Yogesh Maitreya is a writer, poet, translator, and publisher. He is the founder and editor of Panther’s Paw Publication which is dedicated to publishing literature by Dalit-Bahujan
writers (in English and as translations from other Indian languages). He is the author of Flowers on the Grave of Caste (2019), a collection of short stories, Singing/ Thinking Anti Caste (2021),
a book of essays on music and memories, and Ambedkar 2021 (2021), a book of prose poetry.

Remembering Orson Welles
Wed May 3, 7:00 PM
Lamakaan
The summer heat is unrelenting, let's reduce the scorching sun heat through the evening cool breeze by watching one of the most influential and dynamic directors of all time, Orson Welles's films. May is also the birthday month of the director.

About Orson Welles: George Orson Welles (May 6, 1915 – October 10, 1985) was an American actor, director, producer, and screenwriter who is remembered for his innovative work in film, radio, and theatre. He is considered among the greatest and most influential filmmakers of all time.

In 1937, he and John Houseman founded the Mercury Theatre, an independent repertory theatre company that presented a series of productions on Broadway through 1941, including Caesar (1937), a modern, politically charged adaptation of Shakespeare's Julius Caesar.

In 1938, his radio anthology series The Mercury Theatre on the Air gave Welles the platform to find international fame as the director and narrator of a radio adaptation of H. G. Wells's novel The War of the Worlds, which caused some listeners to believe that a Martian invasion was occurring. Although reports of panic were mostly false and overstated, they rocketed 23-year-old Welles to notoriety.

His first film was Citizen Kane (1941), which is consistently ranked as one of the greatest films ever made, and he co-wrote, produced, directed, and starred in as the title character, Charles Foster Kane. Welles released twelve other features, the most acclaimed of which include The Magnificent Ambersons (1942), The Lady from Shanghai (1947), Touch of Evil (1958), The Trial (1962), Chimes at Midnight (1966) and F for Fake (1973). His distinctive directorial style featured layered and nonlinear narrative forms, dramatic lighting, unusual camera angles, sound techniques borrowed from radio, deep focus shots and long takes. David Thomson credits Welles with "the creation of a visual style that is simultaneously baroque and precise, overwhelmingly emotional, and unerringly founded in reality." He has been praised as "the ultimate auteur". Among Welles's notable roles in films by other directors are Rochester in Jane Eyre (1943), Harry Lime in The Third Man (1949) and Cardinal Wolsey in A Man for All Seasons (1966). Welles was a lifelong lover of Shakespeare, and Peter Bogdanovich writes that Chimes at Midnight, in which Welles plays John Falstaff, is "arguably his best film, and his own personal favorite"; Joseph McBride and Jonathan Rosenbaum have called it Welles's masterpiece, and Vincent Canby wrote "it may be the greatest Shakespearean film ever made."

Film Title: CITIZEN KANE | 1941 | 119 minutes | English Language |

About the film: The quasi-biographical film examines the life and legacy of Charles Foster Kane, played by Welles, a composite character based on American media barons William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer, Chicago tycoons Samuel Insull and Harold McCormick, as well as aspects of the screenwriters' own lives.

Citizen Kane is a 1941 American drama film directed by, produced by, and starring Orson Welles. He also co-wrote the screenplay with Herman J. Mankiewicz. The picture was Welles' first feature film. Citizen Kane is frequently cited as the greatest film ever made. For 50 consecutive years, it stood at number 1 in the British Film Institute's Sight & Sound decennial poll of critics, and it topped the American Film Institute's 100 Years ... 100 Movies list in 1998, as well as its 2007 update. The film was nominated for Academy Awards in nine categories, and it won Best Writing (Original Screenplay) by Mankiewicz and Welles. Citizen Kane is praised for Gregg Toland's cinematography, Robert Wise's editing, Bernard Herrmann's music, and its narrative structure, all of which have been considered innovative and precedent-setting.

Circular-Sarees & Sustainability

Six Yards Plus is a Hyderabad based startup that helps MORE women, MORE sarees, MORE often. We carry sarees from across India, some of them are curated and some are our signature designs. We are women run, work with over 300 artisans from across India, and incorporate sustainability into everything that we do. In our effort to help more women drape more sarees more often, we have created several category first initiatives, focused around sustainability. First, we have a line of preloved sarees called Dobara. Launched last year, Dobara has been instrumental in saving close to 3 L litres of water by increasing longevity of sarees and finding loving new homes for sarees. Second, our initiative SaRevive helps give a second lease of life to sarees in your wardrobe. We reinvent them with printing, painting and traditional craft techniques to help you preserve and use sarees for a longer period of time. Third, Antara, our upcycling studio helps you transform your sarees into functional home decor/frameables to increase their longevity, and to help you have them as a part of your life 😊 Finally, Sareetonin is our donation initiative where we incentivise clients to donate sarees which they no longer use. All of these initiatives have received a very positive response from our customers, and we have been able to add to the circular economy thereby impacting clients, climate and communities. So far, we have been running these initiatives from our website, on WhatsApp and in person at our store in Sagar Society. This April marks one year of these initiatives and we would like to celebrate this with an event to increase awareness about the initiatives and encourage sustainable, mindful consumption. On 6 May, Saturday, therefore, we would like to hold a series of discussions and workshops focused on sustainable consumption. In addition, we would like to put up and exhibition cum sale of preloved sarees as well as discuss revival of sarees. We believe that the Lamakaan space represents an approach that encourages slow and mindful consumption and would be the perfect for the event we have in mind.

Disom – The Leadership School
Wed May 10, 5:00 PM
Disom and Lamakaan
Disom – The Leadership School is an experiment started by Disom Foundation (www.disomfoundation.org) to nurture future ethical servant leaders for public life. Inspired by the Matsushita Institute for Government and Management in Japan, Disom intends to address a critical need in India at this time: selfless leaders, committed to the community and ultimately answerable to their “inner voice”

Disom offers a 15-month full-time programme which is experiential in nature and where the fellows practice
- Listening to each other and to their own inner voices,
- Living with and embracing diversity, and also
- Deep democracy, in its truest sense

Currently, our second batch with 19 fellows is underway since the last seven months. Our fellows are a diverse group, from 9 different states of the country, from different socio- economic backgrounds, with different educational and professional backgrounds, professing different faiths and ideologies.

Our programme involves travelling to different parts of the country, meeting people, seeing things and understanding the pain of communities. All the time, working on one’s own self. So it is as much a journey within as it is without.

We are in Hyderabad from May 9 to May 31. We would like to
Interact with young people to discuss about how we can collectively reimagine this new type of leadership that is so required today. We invite dreamers, pioneers, disrupters, artists, mavericks for this interaction planned at Lamakaan on Wednesday, May 10 from 5-7 pm.

See you all there and look forward to an enriching conversation

Josef K wakes up in the morning and finds the police in his room. They inform him he is on trial without exposing the reasons behind it. To find out more and protest his innocence, the man starts to look behind the facade of the judicial system. His efforts, however, seem to lead nowhere.

Victoria Zenana Hospital

The Imminent Demolition of Victoria Zenana Hospital Why should we care? What can we do?


Convener: Sajjad Shahid


There have been multiple news reports in recent weeks alerting us to the likely demolition of Victoria Zenana Hospital, located on the premises of the High Court of Telangana. The media coverage has helped create awareness about the hospital's historical and cultural significance, leading to public concern about its possible demolition.
The hospital was constructed during the reign of the 6th Nizam, H.H. Nawab Mir Mahbub Ali Khan Bahadur. It holds a special place in the history of the city and the memories of its residents. Sadly, neglecting or intentionally destroying heritage buildings like this threatens to erase these memories.
The media is the most powerful force that we have as a democracy to influence public opinion and hold authority to account. We have come together as concerned citizens to provide background information and perspective to the media on this issue and outline some possibilities for further action on the part of citizens.

Remembering Andrei Tarkovsky
Wed Apr 19, 7:00 PM
Lamakaan
This month Lamakaan brings films of one of the greatest and most influential filmmakers in the world of cinema.

About Andrei Tarkovsky: Andrei Arsenyevich Tarkovsky (Russian: Андрей Арсеньевич Тарковский, IPA: [ɐnˈdrʲej ɐrˈsʲenʲjɪvʲɪtɕ tɐrˈkofskʲɪj]; 4 April 1932 – 29 December 1986) was a Russian filmmaker. Widely considered one of cinema's greatest and most influential directors, his films explore spiritual and metaphysical themes. They are noted for their slow pacing, long takes, dreamlike visual imagery, and preoccupation with nature and memory.

Tarkovsky studied film at Moscow's VGIK under filmmaker Mikhail Romm and subsequently directed his first five features in the Soviet Union: Ivan's Childhood (1962), Andrei Rublev (1966), Solaris (1972), Mirror (1975), and Stalker (1979). A number of his films from this period are ranked among the best films ever made. After years of creative conflict with state film authorities, Tarkovsky left the country in 1979 and made his final two films abroad; Nostalghia (1983) and The Sacrifice (1986) were produced in Italy and Sweden, respectively. In 1986, he also published a book about cinema and art entitled Sculpting in Time. He died later that year of cancer, possibly caused by the toxic locations used in the filming of Stalker.

Tarkovsky was the recipient of several awards at the Cannes Film Festival throughout his career (including the FIPRESCI prize, the Prize of the Ecumenical Jury, and the Grand Prix Spécial du Jury and winner of the Golden Lion award at the Venice Film Festival for his debut film Ivan's Childhood. In 1990, he was posthumously awarded the Soviet Union's prestigious Lenin Prize. Three of his films—Andrei Rublev, Mirror, and Stalker—were featured in Sight & Sound's 2012 poll of the 100 greatest films of all time.

Film Title: The Sacrifice | 1986 | 142 minutes | Russian language subtitled in English |

The Sacrifice (Swedish: Offret) is a 1986 drama film written and directed by Andrei Tarkovsky. Starring Erland Josephson, the film was produced by the Swedish Film Institute. Many of the crew were alumni of Ingmar Bergman's films.

The Sacrifice centers on a middle-aged intellectual who attempts to bargain with God to stop an impending nuclear holocaust. The film combines pagan and Christian religious themes; Tarkovsky called it a "parable".

Water in a Broken Pot by Yogesh
Tue Apr 25, 7:00 PM
Lamakaan & HBT
Lamakaan invites you to a book launch and talk about 'Water in a Broken Pot: a memoir' by Yogesh Maitreya.

About the book: Incredibly moving and hauntingly honest, Water in a Broken Pot is the memoir of Yogesh Maitreya, a leading independent Indian Dalit
publisher, writer, and poet. Encompassing experiences of pain, loneliness, deprivation,
alienation, and the political consciousness of his caste identity, this intimately moving memoir is a story of resilience and raw brutality. Growing up in a working-class family with meagre wages to get by in life, Yogesh writes of his father’s struggle
against alcohol and passion for cinema; of
intergenerational dreams shattered; working
day and night shifts in factories; the struggle
of being lost, overlooked, and unmentored in
India’s schooling, college, and university
systems that continue to be casteist,
exclusionary and hostile, and feelings of lovelessness, loss, and heartaches.

Having hopped from gig to gig to make ends
meet, he writes of his eventual discovery of the
the written word, literature, and the Ambedkarite
legacy, which helped shape his dreams, identity
and the eventual career choice of publishing
books. In sharing his story, this fresh and
a radical voice tells his truth in the frankest
and unfiltered of ways, as it happened, giving
us readers permission to also be vulnerable in telling our tales.

About the Author: Yogesh Maitreya is a writer, poet, translator, and publisher. He is the founder and editor of Panther’s Paw Publication which is dedicated to publishing literature by Dalit-Bahujan
writers (in English and as translations from other Indian languages). He is the author of Flowers on the Grave of Caste (2019), a collection of short stories, Singing/ Thinking Anti Caste (2021),
a book of essays on music and memories, and Ambedkar 2021 (2021), a book of prose poetry.

Remembering Andrei Tarkovsky
Wed Apr 26, 7:30 PM
Lamakaan
This month Lamakaan brings films of one of the greatest and most influential filmmakers in the world of cinema.

About Andrei Tarkovsky: Andrei Arsenyevich Tarkovsky (Russian: Андрей Арсеньевич Тарковский, IPA: [ɐnˈdrʲej ɐrˈsʲenʲjɪvʲɪtɕ tɐrˈkofskʲɪj]; 4 April 1932 – 29 December 1986) was a Russian filmmaker. Widely considered one of cinema's greatest and most influential directors, his films explore spiritual and metaphysical themes. They are noted for their slow pacing, long takes, dreamlike visual imagery, and preoccupation with nature and memory.

Tarkovsky studied film at Moscow's VGIK under filmmaker Mikhail Romm and subsequently directed his first five features in the Soviet Union: Ivan's Childhood (1962), Andrei Rublev (1966), Solaris (1972), Mirror (1975), and Stalker (1979). A number of his films from this period are ranked among the best films ever made. After years of creative conflict with state film authorities, Tarkovsky left the country in 1979 and made his final two films abroad; Nostalghia (1983) and The Sacrifice (1986) were produced in Italy and Sweden, respectively. In 1986, he also published a book about cinema and art entitled Sculpting in Time. He died later that year of cancer, possibly caused by the toxic locations used in the filming of Stalker.

Tarkovsky was the recipient of several awards at the Cannes Film Festival throughout his career (including the FIPRESCI prize, the Prize of the Ecumenical Jury, and the Grand Prix Spécial du Jury and winner of the Golden Lion award at the Venice Film Festival for his debut film Ivan's Childhood. In 1990, he was posthumously awarded the Soviet Union's prestigious Lenin Prize. Three of his films—Andrei Rublev, Mirror, and Stalker—were featured in Sight & Sound's 2012 poll of the 100 greatest films of all time.

Film Title: Mirror | 1975 | 106 minutes | Russian language subtitled in English |

The mirror is a 1975 Soviet and Russian drama film directed by Andrei Tarkovsky. It is loosely autobiographical, unconventionally structured, and incorporates poems composed and read by the director's father, Arseny Tarkovsky. The film features Margarita Terekhova, Ignat Daniltsev, Alla Demidova, Anatoly Solonitsyn, Tarkovsky's wife Larisa Tarkovskaya, and his mother, Maria Vishnyakova. Innokenty Smoktunovsky provides the voiceover, and Eduard Artemyev with the incidental music and sound effects.

Remembering Orson Welles
Wed May 3, 7:00 PM
Lamakaan
The summer heat is unrelenting, let's reduce the scorching sun heat through the evening cool breeze by watching one of the most influential and dynamic directors of all time, Orson Welles's films. May is also the birthday month of the director.

About Orson Welles: George Orson Welles (May 6, 1915 – October 10, 1985) was an American actor, director, producer, and screenwriter who is remembered for his innovative work in film, radio, and theatre. He is considered among the greatest and most influential filmmakers of all time.

In 1937, he and John Houseman founded the Mercury Theatre, an independent repertory theatre company that presented a series of productions on Broadway through 1941, including Caesar (1937), a modern, politically charged adaptation of Shakespeare's Julius Caesar.

In 1938, his radio anthology series The Mercury Theatre on the Air gave Welles the platform to find international fame as the director and narrator of a radio adaptation of H. G. Wells's novel The War of the Worlds, which caused some listeners to believe that a Martian invasion was occurring. Although reports of panic were mostly false and overstated, they rocketed 23-year-old Welles to notoriety.

His first film was Citizen Kane (1941), which is consistently ranked as one of the greatest films ever made, and he co-wrote, produced, directed, and starred in as the title character, Charles Foster Kane. Welles released twelve other features, the most acclaimed of which include The Magnificent Ambersons (1942), The Lady from Shanghai (1947), Touch of Evil (1958), The Trial (1962), Chimes at Midnight (1966) and F for Fake (1973). His distinctive directorial style featured layered and nonlinear narrative forms, dramatic lighting, unusual camera angles, sound techniques borrowed from radio, deep focus shots and long takes. David Thomson credits Welles with "the creation of a visual style that is simultaneously baroque and precise, overwhelmingly emotional, and unerringly founded in reality." He has been praised as "the ultimate auteur". Among Welles's notable roles in films by other directors are Rochester in Jane Eyre (1943), Harry Lime in The Third Man (1949) and Cardinal Wolsey in A Man for All Seasons (1966). Welles was a lifelong lover of Shakespeare, and Peter Bogdanovich writes that Chimes at Midnight, in which Welles plays John Falstaff, is "arguably his best film, and his own personal favorite"; Joseph McBride and Jonathan Rosenbaum have called it Welles's masterpiece, and Vincent Canby wrote "it may be the greatest Shakespearean film ever made."

Film Title: CITIZEN KANE | 1941 | 119 minutes | English Language |

About the film: The quasi-biographical film examines the life and legacy of Charles Foster Kane, played by Welles, a composite character based on American media barons William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer, Chicago tycoons Samuel Insull and Harold McCormick, as well as aspects of the screenwriters' own lives.

Citizen Kane is a 1941 American drama film directed by, produced by, and starring Orson Welles. He also co-wrote the screenplay with Herman J. Mankiewicz. The picture was Welles' first feature film. Citizen Kane is frequently cited as the greatest film ever made. For 50 consecutive years, it stood at number 1 in the British Film Institute's Sight & Sound decennial poll of critics, and it topped the American Film Institute's 100 Years ... 100 Movies list in 1998, as well as its 2007 update. The film was nominated for Academy Awards in nine categories, and it won Best Writing (Original Screenplay) by Mankiewicz and Welles. Citizen Kane is praised for Gregg Toland's cinematography, Robert Wise's editing, Bernard Herrmann's music, and its narrative structure, all of which have been considered innovative and precedent-setting.

Circular-Sarees & Sustainability

Six Yards Plus is a Hyderabad based startup that helps MORE women, MORE sarees, MORE often. We carry sarees from across India, some of them are curated and some are our signature designs. We are women run, work with over 300 artisans from across India, and incorporate sustainability into everything that we do. In our effort to help more women drape more sarees more often, we have created several category first initiatives, focused around sustainability. First, we have a line of preloved sarees called Dobara. Launched last year, Dobara has been instrumental in saving close to 3 L litres of water by increasing longevity of sarees and finding loving new homes for sarees. Second, our initiative SaRevive helps give a second lease of life to sarees in your wardrobe. We reinvent them with printing, painting and traditional craft techniques to help you preserve and use sarees for a longer period of time. Third, Antara, our upcycling studio helps you transform your sarees into functional home decor/frameables to increase their longevity, and to help you have them as a part of your life 😊 Finally, Sareetonin is our donation initiative where we incentivise clients to donate sarees which they no longer use. All of these initiatives have received a very positive response from our customers, and we have been able to add to the circular economy thereby impacting clients, climate and communities. So far, we have been running these initiatives from our website, on WhatsApp and in person at our store in Sagar Society. This April marks one year of these initiatives and we would like to celebrate this with an event to increase awareness about the initiatives and encourage sustainable, mindful consumption. On 6 May, Saturday, therefore, we would like to hold a series of discussions and workshops focused on sustainable consumption. In addition, we would like to put up and exhibition cum sale of preloved sarees as well as discuss revival of sarees. We believe that the Lamakaan space represents an approach that encourages slow and mindful consumption and would be the perfect for the event we have in mind.

Disom – The Leadership School
Wed May 10, 5:00 PM
Disom and Lamakaan
Disom – The Leadership School is an experiment started by Disom Foundation (www.disomfoundation.org) to nurture future ethical servant leaders for public life. Inspired by the Matsushita Institute for Government and Management in Japan, Disom intends to address a critical need in India at this time: selfless leaders, committed to the community and ultimately answerable to their “inner voice”

Disom offers a 15-month full-time programme which is experiential in nature and where the fellows practice
- Listening to each other and to their own inner voices,
- Living with and embracing diversity, and also
- Deep democracy, in its truest sense

Currently, our second batch with 19 fellows is underway since the last seven months. Our fellows are a diverse group, from 9 different states of the country, from different socio- economic backgrounds, with different educational and professional backgrounds, professing different faiths and ideologies.

Our programme involves travelling to different parts of the country, meeting people, seeing things and understanding the pain of communities. All the time, working on one’s own self. So it is as much a journey within as it is without.

We are in Hyderabad from May 9 to May 31. We would like to
Interact with young people to discuss about how we can collectively reimagine this new type of leadership that is so required today. We invite dreamers, pioneers, disrupters, artists, mavericks for this interaction planned at Lamakaan on Wednesday, May 10 from 5-7 pm.

See you all there and look forward to an enriching conversation

About the film: The Trial is a 1962 drama directed by Orson Welles, who also wrote the screenplay based on the 1925 posthumously published novel of the same name by Franz Kafka. Welles stated immediately after completing the film: "The Trial is the best film I have ever made".
Josef K wakes up in the morning and finds the police in his room. They inform him he is on trial without exposing the reasons behind it. To find out more and protest his innocence, the man starts to look behind the facade of the judicial system. His efforts, however, seem to lead nowhere.

The Imminent Demolition of Victoria Zenana Hospital Why should we care? What can we do?


Convener: Sajjad Shahid


There have been multiple news reports in recent weeks alerting us to the likely demolition of Victoria Zenana Hospital, located on the premises of the High Court of Telangana. The media coverage has helped create awareness about the hospital's historical and cultural significance, leading to public concern about its possible demolition.
The hospital was constructed during the reign of the 6th Nizam, H.H. Nawab Mir Mahbub Ali Khan Bahadur. It holds a special place in the history of the city and the memories of its residents. Sadly, neglecting or intentionally destroying heritage buildings like this threatens to erase these memories.
The media is the most powerful force that we have as a democracy to influence public opinion and hold authority to account. We have come together as concerned citizens to provide background information and perspective to the media on this issue and outline some possibilities for further action on the part of citizens.
