- In the 100 Year's of Hindi cinema, We never saw this frame in any film from Bollywood. But look the frame from @Nagrajmanjule Jhund. Welcoming change, Thank you.
- We just loss one gem of a person! Rest in Power Gail Omvedt. Jai Bhim to your contribution.
- I feel like a Panther When I read Ambedkar๐ @TherukuralArivu
- Poster release of our upcoming short docu film. Memories of Mangaon Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, then 29 years old, had just returned to India from Columbia University in the United States, where he had earned his M.A. and PhD.
- Dhadak 2 is an honest Bollywood attempt that every one needs to watch and acknowledge but, if the film team would have engaged and included Dalit -Ambedkarite artists, scholars and activists in the film process (1/2)
- Today I met Ramesh Shinde in Goregaon, Mumbai. He was 15 years old when Babasaheb died. Now he is 88 years old. For the last 40 years, he has collected 5000 books including an unpublished work by Babasaheb on Buddhism, all the first editions of Babasaheb's writings.
- American researcher Gail Omvedt came to India for her PhD fieldwork on Mahatma Phule's Satyshodhak and Non-Brahmin Movement in the 1970s. She dedicated the rest of her life to writing, speaking and advocating for Dalit - Bahujan and human rights.
