Dosar – Film by Rituparno Ghosh
Prosenjit Chatterjee Retrospective is being held during 7-29 September, 2015 at India Habitat Centre. The retrospective started with the Benagli film Dosar directed by Rituparno Ghosh. Dosar stars Prosenjit and Konkona and is about extra marital relationships in an urban setting. We found the flim somewhat cliché and is definitely not among the masterpieces of Rituparno. Yet, it is a watchable film, relatable in parts and the English subtitles make it an easy watch for non Bengali speaking audience.

Moreover the seating space is very limited.

Karna Lake – Roadtrip from Delhi
A day trip to Karna lake, about 140 Kms from Delhi, takes about 2.5 hours. Once out of Delhi, the highway is dotted with dhabas and resorts where one can stop for breakfast/lunch or even spend the night. Gulshan dhaba, where we stopped, is a somewhat modern take on dhaba which does not disappoint. Karna lake, surrounded by greenery, is a great photo op. Further, boating facilities make this a very attractive fun-do for children as well.
