The Chennai chapter of IIT Madras Alumni Association (IITMAA) celebrates Navaratri with a nine-day online festival (October 7-15).
Ideated by Shyamala Rajaram, secretary, IITMAA, and executed by Dr. Malati Raghunath, president, Chennai Chapter, the line-up, showcasing mainly artistes with IITM affiliations, features vocal and instrumental concerts, a quiz and a lecture demonstration.
The festival begins with Amritha Murali’s vocal concert with R.K. Shriramkumar on the violin, K. Arun Prakash on the mridangam, and N. Guruprasad on the ghatam.

In a surprising turn of events, Urvashi theatre, one of Bengaluru’s iconic single screens, has re-opened, with the much-talked-about Dhurandhar: The Revenge running to a full house in the theatre. After the expiry of the 45-year lease, it seemed like curtains would come down on the king-size theatre but for now, it’s good news for fans.
