More Brands get into Navratri Groove
From : The Times of India
AHMEDABAD: Money is back into the Navratri business as more and more companies come forward to sponsor events during the upcoming festival.
Organizers said that there is a sudden boost in sponsorships this year as compared to the last few years. "We received over Rs 12 lakh from sponsors this year as compared to about Rs 6 lakh last year. The economy is in better shape and Gujarat has a feel-good factor courtesy the efforts of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. All these factors will attract many global visitors and business delegates at venues and this has led to an increase in sponsorship," said Chiranjiv Patel, a garba organiser. Patel has invited 150 delegates from around the world, out of which about 80 are foreign nationals.
Telecom companies, which had refrained from sponsoring major events last year, are making their presence felt across venues. "Navratri is an important festival for us as part of our marketing and customer engagement activities. This Navratri, we are associated with 18 major Navratri events across Gujarat like United Way - Baroda, Karnavati, YMCA Club, Friends Garba and HL Garba in Ahmedabad," said Brajesh Bajpai, Business Head - Gujarat, Vodafone India.

For Amdavadis, printed word holds an irreplaceable charm
Brajesh and our book review blog featured in today's DNA Ahmedabad (Page 2 of Main Paper) article on Booklovers
For Amdavadis, printed word holds an irreplaceable charm
The adage – ‘Wear the old coat and buy a new book' — goes very well for Amdavadi bookworms who are still hooked to the woody aroma of the printed pages. These bibliophagists appreciate Kindle, but say digitisation cannot replace the charm of printed words. dna’s Himali Doshi finds out how the city-folk declare their undying love for printed books on Book Lovers Day
‘Begin reading today and change your life’
Brajesh Bajpai, business head, Vodafone Ltd Gujarat, owns a 1,500-book library. An active blogger on http://whichbooknext.blogspot.in, he and wife Karishma summarise and rate the books they read across all genres. ‘My library grew naturally when my wife Karishma brought home her own large collection of books,” he says revealing how he thought of making a library. “The print form is being challenged by lower costs and easy accessibility of e-books, but will survive for its own unique reasons,” he says with hope. His favourite author is Devdutt Pattnaik whose “Mahabharata” he rates highly, with all its renditions, versions and speculative fiction.
‘Read books and let your imagination soar’
“When my family moved from Sindh, my grandmother brought with her only a few clothes but a trunk full of books,” says Prakash Ramrakhiani who has a 5,000-book library which he calls 'Danai' meaning 'knowledge' in Greek. His love for books soared when he began receiving books as a prize for standing first in class.” His favourite authors are PG Woodhouse, W Dalrymple, John LeCarre and Frederick Forsyth. That books would be redundant soon was speculated even 20 years ago, he remembers and feels e-books can never replace the smell of fresh paper or the charm of holding a book in the hand. His message for the young is that they should read all genres to develop mind and thought.
‘Food for thought weighs more than food for stomach’
Founder of 'The Riverside School', Ahmedabad, Kiran Bir Sethi has about 1,000 books in her personal library. Lending and borrowing books was an essential the part of growing up she remembers and insists that parents should encourage their kids to make their own collection. Though she loves e-books she says, reading printed books gives her unparalleled pleasure. “Youngsters read a lot of stuff on social networking sites, but they need to be inspired to read books” she says. Among her favourite books are 'The difficulty of being good' by Guru Charan Das and MK Gandhi's 'My experiments with truth'.
