🖤Rezan and Azad?
Tysm for the asks, one was certainly easier to do than the other askdjh.
🖤: What do they want to be remembered for? What do they fear they may be remembered for instead?
Rozerîn/Rêzan
They've already made strides towards it with your recovery and the reinstatement of the Crown in their rightful place, but there's still a long road ahead of them
If they were to have their way through- all the cards falling in all the right places, they'd hope to bring honor to their mentor's name
Let the historians put the years of fruitless searches and failure as a footnote in the archives- for both of them
They'd want to be remembered for their merit, their skill, and wisdom- unaided, at least, from the various magi schools in the empire
They'd want those in their life, friends, and family- to remember the work they put into making their country a better place for all
Above all else, they'd want the world to know that they did their best.
Azad/Ashti
A small part of the Royal Protector knows that the stain left on them by their father's rule will never wash away.
Though it's not like many know of their lineage anyhow, that kind of information simply doesn't leave the Imperial court- no farmer or fisherman cares for the activities of Crownsblood after all
And even when the captain tends to disregard their reputation- allowing their actions to speak for itself
A part of them hopes that those actions will be what is marked on paper
That- at the end of their life, there will be more to Mirza than the failure of a Crown their parent was. That there would be more to their story than a small note of their service after his rule.
That the records tell a tale of a peerless soldier- a warrior that spent their life defending the citizens of Arsur, a person of their own.
Sins separated from the ones flowing in their veins.

INDIES TOP 100 BOLLYWOOD HISTORICALS !
INDIES TOP 100 BOLLYWOOD HISTORICALS !
"History is blessing as an inspiration, & disaster as an excuse". Since we at Indies devote part of our time here online, to being film historians & not real life historians, & since there has anyway been a scarcity of historical film material produced thru time, to entertainingly hook our audiences in to our enthralling past/culture, not just in the new millennia but even in the golden b&w age of cinema, we would like to take the cinematic liberty of defining history, not per the strict parameters imposed on real history /antiquity researchers, but a milder set of rules, namely: 1. The films should be largely based on broadly accepted & popular real set of events or incidents & people, from society - if not with exact places & dates or names altogether. 2. The stories passing on thru time, mostly via linked textual references, must have a broad acceptance in culture as inspiring reality, even w/o empirical tangible evidences to establish their authenticity, & despite contrary, or dismissive, lesser popular claims in circulation. 3. The amount of magic, not just metaphoric but real magical qualities, attributed to humans narrated via these stories, must be restricted to a bare minimum & atleast not form a crux of the film (as such stories already find a hallowed place in Indies Mythological Films section). PS. Few of the below listed films, were released in dual languages, incl Hindi, back in the day, even if only non-Hindi versions available for viewership today. PS. There are a very small few old b&w (assumed not confirmed) historical films from 1930s & 1940s era coming across as impressive at just poster or casting look, but with no prints available for public view, nor any journalistic literature of the time to gain more insight, very hard to include them at Indies so. PS. Jfyi. The 2 most prominent Bollywood Historical masters to emerge post this exclusive Indie historical collation, lending this all-time research much density, are- Paidi Jairaj followed by Bharat Bhushan!

Ishq, Inshallah
Is Kashmir getting on the South Asia’s music map?
By Faisul Yaseen
Faheem Abdullah and Rauhan Malik’s recent song ‘Ishq’ from ‘Lost; Found’ album has immortalised the work of Amir Ameer, a poet from Rahim Yar Khan, a city in the Punjab province of Pakistan.
It is breaking the internet and becoming a trending meme song. The song is also bringing closer music lovers across India and Pakistan, who are raving about Ameer’s mesmerising poetry and soothing voice of Abdullah and Malik. ‘Ishq’ may not be the best thing to have happened to the Kashmir music industry but it certainly has attracted traction and could play its part in putting Kashmir on South Asia’s music map.
Tumblr media
Though boasting of rich musical instrumentals, magical voices, and insightful poetry, Kashmir’s music industry has suffered over the decades due to the Kashmiri language’s limited reach as only 6.8 million people speak Kashmiri. However, the experimentation of composing Urdu songs by young Kashmiri singers like Abdullah and Malik and a crop of new-generation Kashmiri singers is making the canvas bigger for them as Urdu boasts 71.29 million native speakers while the language is also understood by 571.3 million native Hindi speakers.
Like Abdullah and Malik, someone who took this experimentation to new heights in Kashmir was Yawar Abdal, a new-age Kashmiri singer who, in 2017, experimented with his single, ‘Tamana’, a multilingual song in Kashmiri, Urdu, and Persian languages based on the poetry of three legendary poets: Mehjoor (Kashmiri), Mirza Ghalib (Urdu), and Amir Khusru (Persian). The song became an instant hit on the internet. Abdal’s best work to date though might not be ‘Tamama’ but a lesser hit ‘Inshallah’. It is an artistic genius: multilayered and ambiguous and shakes a listener out of placid.
Tumblr media
Abdal may not have the best voice among the new-age Kashmiri singers but he is heads and shoulders above others when it comes to crafting his work. Like his unconventional music, the visualisation in his music videos touches raw nerves and asks questions that only great art can.
Tumblr media
Canadian pop artist Grimes says, “Only art ever saved me, everything else has betrayed me.” And Abdal’s music and music videos never betray your trust.
Tumblr media
Jyotsna Bharti in ‘Mixing Old Melody with New Melancholy: Meet Kashmir’s Fresh Folksingers’ writes, “At a time when youngsters elsewhere are de-rooting themselves and trying westerns, many new-age Kashmiri musicians and singers are popularising their roots. Following the footsteps of their forefathers, they’re finding solace in Rabab, pleasures in poetries and life in mountains…”
These new-age Kashmiri singers like Ali Saifuddin, Mohammad Muneem Nazir, Saim Bhat, Ishfaq Kawa, Rasiq Khan, Waqar Khan, Kabul Bukhari, Arsalan Nizami, Ubair Taj Beigh, Baabarr, Mudacer, Shazia Bashir, Aabha Hanjura, Vibha Saraf, and Rahul Wanchoo wear Kashmir on their sleeves, sport Kashmiri shawls and Pherans, use traditional musical instruments, and shoot music videos in the picturesque locales.
They have taken a leaf out of the book of their ancestors like Raja Begum, Shamima Dev Azad, Ghulam Hassan Sofi, Abdul Rashid Hafiz, Kailash Mehra Sadhu, and Neeraja Pandit and popularised it among the new generations of Kashmir offering them music from their roots and educating them that Kashmiri music might be as rich as the Bollywood and western music and much like the Punjabi music could carve out an identity of its own.
Tumblr media
Kashmiri music represents its rich melodic heritage. It has played a significant role in shaping and expressing its cultural identity. Kashmiri music has served as a powerful tool to preserve Kashmiri traditions, values, and stories.
Kalhana in his magnum opus ‘Rajatarangini’ wrote in the 12th Century CE that Kashmiri musical instruments have extremely aged roots. A 4th-century CE tile found during excavation from Harwan shows the impression of a female musician playing a drum. The other person is shown playing a veena. King Bhiksacara (1120-21 CE), who himself played these instruments was fond of ‘Chhakri’ (folk choral singing) which continues to be popular in Kashmir.
According to Kalhana, folk musical instruments like earthen pots and brass vessels were used by Kashmiri people from very early times. Prominent musical instruments played in Kashmir include Surnai, Santoor, Saitar, Nai, Tumbaknari, Noot, and Rabab.
Tumblr media
Tumkanari (goblet drum) is usually used by womenfolk on occasions like engagement and marriage functions. In Central Asia Tumkanari called Tumbakh or Tunbak is now made of wood while Kashmir maintains its originality and the musical instrument is still made of baked clay. Similarly, the use of Noet (earthen pot) in Kashmiri music is mentioned in Nilmata Purana as well as Kalhana’s Rajtarangini.
Tumblr media
Kashmiri music also has influences from the Central Asian music.
“We even borrowed their music and instruments,” historian Prof Fida Muhammad Hassnain wrote in ‘Common Cultural Links between Kashmir and Central Asia’.
According to B C Deva, the string instruments, Rabab and Sarangi, came to Kashmir with the influence of Muslims.
While some historians state that the most popular instrument used in folk music in Kashmir is the Rabab borrowed from Persia, others suggest it was adopted from Afghanistan centuries ago and has been an integral part of Kashmiri music culture ever since.
Tumblr media
These musical instruments have also played a key role in the evolution of Kashmiri Sufiana music.
The instruments used by the Sufiana musicians are quite different from those used in Indian classical music and Kashmiri folk music. The prominent instruments include Santoor, Kashmiri Saitar, Saaz-e-Kashmir, and Tabla.
Shabir Ahmad Mir in his paper ‘Mystical Music: Safeguarding Sufiana Mausiqi – a Vanishing Art Form of Kashmir’ for the International Journal of Intangible Heritage writes, “Sufiana mausiqi (music) continued to flourish during the reign of Sultan Yusuf Shah Chak (1579-1586). His queen, Habba Khatun, is often credited with introducing a maqam ‘Rast-Kashmiri’ by making a little structural variation on maqam Rast-Farsi. Chak and his queen were great patrons of music as well as musicians themselves, and they devoted their time to embellishing Kashmiri classical music. Rast-Kashmiri still forms the most popular maqam of the Sufiana repertory.”
In Kashmir, marriage and engagement functions, Eid festivals, Radio Kashmir Srinagar, and Doordarshan Kendra Srinagar played a key role in keeping the Kashmiri music alive.
Tumblr media
Music often has a massive cultural impact as is illustrated by the influence of The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. The Beatles is considered as the most influential band in the history of popular music and for defining the countercultural movement of the 1960s. Similarly, The Rolling Stones, considered one of the greatest Rock n Roll bands of all time with their raw energy and rebellious image defined the cultural landscape of the 1960s and beyond.
Tumblr media
Abdullah, Malik, and Abdal may just have begun their musical journeys but the route they are taking to their stardom might shape Kashmir’s musical heritage for future generations. Who knows next ‘Coke Studio’ shift in South Asia could come from the Valley! Ishq and Inshallah might be the shape of things to come from Kashmir.

DHAKA, Bangladesh -- Police in Bangladesh clashed Tuesday with opposition supporters who blocked roads to demand that the prime minister resign and hand power to a nonpartisan caretaker to oversee elections next year. At least two people were killed and dozens injured, officials said.
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has rejected a caretaker government and on Tuesday ruled out any dialogue with the main opposition Bangladesh Nationalist Party, which is behind the protests. She warned of consequences if they continue with their announced intention to block roads for three days starting Tuesday.
Dozens of people were arrested across the country, reports said.
In the central district of Kishoreganj, two opposition supporters were killed in clashes Tuesday with police, and 40 other people, including 15 police officers, were injured, local government administrator Abul Kalam Azad said.
Clashes also took place in the Narayanganj district outside the capital, Dhaka, where local media reports said three policemen were stabbed. The United News of Bangladesh agency reported violence including vandalism and arson in Dhaka.
The government has been under pressure for months because of anti-government protests by the Bangladesh Nationalist Party of former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia. Elections are expected in January, and the opposition says it won't join unless Hasina guarantees a free vote via a caretaker government.
Tensions flared on Saturday when a massive rally by Zia's party in Dhaka turned violent, and at least four people were killed in ensuing violence through Monday, including the alleged beating death of a policeman over the weekend.
On Sunday, the opposition party held a daylong general strike across Bangladesh when authorities arrested a key opposition politician who has led the movement in the absence of Zia, who is ailing. The party then announced it would start blocking roads Tuesday.
Zia’s party says the government used excessive force on Saturday in attempts to prevent their rally, but authorities accused opposition supporters of attacking police and said they vandalized the chief justice’s official residence.
On Tuesday, police in Dhaka arrested two opposition leaders, Mirza Abbas and Moazzem Hossain Alal, while many other senior opposition leaders went into hiding to avoid arrest.
The foreign missions of Australia, Canada, Japan, South Korea, Norway, Britain and the United States in Dhaka issued a joint statement this week urging all sides to refrain from violence and work together to create conditions for a free, fair and peaceful election.
U.S. Ambassador Peter Haas said Tuesday he hoped all sides would engage in dialogue, after meeting with Chief Election Commissioner Kazi Habibul Awal.
But Hasina ruled out the possibility of dialogue, and described the opposition as “murderers," in a reference to the alleged beating death Saturday of a police official.
The prime minister strongly criticized Zia’s party, and said the government would resist any attempts to delay the elections. "We won’t just let them off this time. They will not be able to stop the election this way,” she said.
She also said the U.S. ambassador's call for dialogue with the opposition was like asking U.S. President Joe Biden to hold talks with former President Donald Trump. "If Biden sits with Trump for dialogue, then I will hold the dialogue,” she told a news conference.
Politics in Bangladesh has been dominated for decades by two major dynastic parties led by Hasina and Zia.
Hasina seeks a fourth consecutive term as she pursues an agenda of development by implementing mega projects and offering partnerships to China, India, France, Russia, Japan and Saudi Arabia, among others.
The U.S. is the largest importer of Bangladesh’s garment products, while the European Union has a strong trade and development partnership.
Critics accuse Hasina's administration of corruption and failure to uphold human rights.

Rochdale News | News Headlines | Red carpet success for Kashmiri Productions UKs latest film
Date published: 17 July 2022 The red carpet premiere of ‘England, Pakistan and Azad Jammu & Kashmir’ The red carpet premiere of local film company Kashmiri Productions UK’s latest film, ‘England, Pakistan and Azad Jammu & Kashmir’, was a resounding success. The film – which aims to change people’s ‘negative’ perceptions of Pakistan and Azad Jammu & Kashmir – sees a man from Rochdale take a trip to his forefathers’ homeland to show the world his identity, language, culture, people, places, the vibes and a touch of Islam. Shot using iPhone and Samsung, the 45-minute production features music by international singers such as Bonafide (Maz & Ziggy), Asif K, Sabir Mirza, Tabish Iqbal, Zafi Allah Loak and Hassan Javaid. The film premiered at Reel Cinema, Rochdale, on Thursday 7 July, attended by the Mayor of Rochdale, Consort, deputy council leader, councillors, cast, crew, VIP, media, locals and people from out of the town. Saba Andleeb, actor and chairperson, Kashmiri Productions UK, said: “We are very grateful to everyone who attended and made the event very successful. It was rewarding to witness house full for our fourth community-based film project and the feedback from the audience was fantastic. “We are planning on releasing the film either on YouTube or on an Asian TV channel; either way, we will keep everyone posted via our Facebook page.” Zafar Iqbal, actor and filmmaker, said: “Prior to the launch night, I lost sleep for few days, but the way the project was shaping up and the way the demand was high for the premiere and dinner tickets, I was excited but when I witnessed a house full, I was relieved and felt blessed. “I would like to thank Reel Cinema, sponsors, KPUK, cast, crew, singers, volunteers and audience for making the event a successful story. I would also like to thank members of audience who travelled from Birmingham, Manchester, Oldham, Bradford, Leeds, Dewsbury, Sheffield and Peterborough.” Councillor Ali Ahmed, Mayor of Rochdale said: “Wherever you come from, we mustn’t forget our roots and that is what brother Zafar Iqbal tried to convey via this project. “Zafar and the KPUK always make good community-based projects and I appreciate and support them for what they are doing for the locals.” Councillor Daalat Ali, deputy council leader and Pahari writer, said: “It is great to see a full house supporting local talent and I admire the fact Zafar who I’ve known for very long time, despite the fact he’s been living here most of his life but still has duty of care for his mother tongue and culture and that’s why he promotes it through amazing projects like these.” Councillor Shakil Ahmed said: “When Zafar and Saba told me they are planning on launching this amazing community-based film which promotes our culture and language, firstly I was excited and secondly, I said I am here for you guys. KPUK always produce and deliver community-based projects and that’s why I always support them for their efforts.” Councillor Amber Nisa said: “It’s a lovely film and great atmosphere amongst the guests and my daughter enjoyed the evening too. I wish everyone involved all the best for next step of this project and future projects.” https://ift.tt/94FaTc5 https://ift.tt/xRP2Tsb
