RK Ram wrote: Do you have this event recorded for posterity or is it only available only for a limited period? For old timers like me who were fortunate enough to welcome PM Rajiv Gandhi over almost 3 decades back (as the Chair of the Citizens Committee), it was a rare occasion indeed. Enjoyed very much all the variety of Indian cultural items presented by our own fellow citizens of the diaspora.

Rajni Anand Luthra wrote: Goosebumps when I saw the exhibition. It was goosebumps as well when I first saw pics of the original in Delhi’s National Museum late last year. So I knew I’d be going to see it when the Melb show was announced. It’s a stunning show and photos just do not do justice. Also great to hear directly from the makers themselves. A def must-see.

Jillian Abery wrote again: Excellent exhibition, I highly recommend a visit.
