His work lies on different themes like Santhal archers and
drummers, baul and kirtan singers, or his series of paintings on
Christ, the Krishna lila, the Ramayana...
The paradox of the artist's career came in the 1950s and 1960s
when he became a veritable picture industry, freely giving
paintings to friends and admirers, frequently duplicating works
to meet the mounting demands of the market, allowing his
works to be widely copied by his own son....
Who is this colourful personality a common subject of a very
famous "Adda-Place" in Kolkata…
11. Kattunayakan Tribe ( one of the 75 PARTICULARLY VULNERABLE TRIBAL GROUPS) are
significant in their role in southern states like Tamil Nadu, Kerala... The word
Kattunayakar means king of the Jungle...
This tribe, just like many other tribal groups has been largely dependent to the forest.
They cultivate cinnamons, berries, forest peepers etc... They have some traditional
knowledge on medicines, they are very well versed with wild plants, fruits, crops...
Now the actual story behind the glory goes like this..
It was on a visit back home in Ooty 5 years ago that X met these Kattunayakan
'parents' of an orphan....Touched by the heavenly connection X captured the heart
warming story...and the rest is history....
X is not required, I want the claim to fame...

13. In Tamil Nadu’s Koovagam village an 18 day long festival is celebrated
and attended by devotees of a special community from across the
country . Each year during the full moon of the Tamil month of
Chitrai, devotees gather to participate in the re-enactment of a tale
from Mahabharata, that of Aravan (Son of Arjuna & Ulupi) and
Mohini’s marriage. The devotees become brides of Aravan for one
day in a symbolic wedding at the Koothandavar temple . The
following day they mourn the death of their husband Aravan, just as
Krishna did in Mohini’s form, becoming his widow.
So tell me the speciality of the festival.

The daily show is an American satirical news show
where Trevor Noah used to discuss politics in an unusual
entertaining manner. While covering the Queen's death,
he made certain quirky remarks about how she didn't
once criticize the colonialism and so maybe not
everyone was mourning her death. He took this chance
to take a jibe on her possession of X ( largest of its kind)
and how she never tried to give it back to his country.
Id X.

There are certain phrases in Bengali which are very
popular in our day to day dialogues in friend circles.
One such phrase is X, which you can often find
imprinted behind the trucks. It can be used to mean
many things but mainly to signify one's jealousy which is
compared to how a food item is prepared.
You can also relate this phrase with 'Bhyabachaka', 'D
Minor's, 'Tobo Mukut' etc.
Just give me the phrase.

Sama bajau are the first sea nomads of Asia. They can can be found in the
islands of indonesia and phillipines,interesting thing about people of this
tribe is that they are adapted to live in water than land. They have an
amazing ability of free diving and approximately spends 5 hrs daily in
water. Their anatomy is a reason for this capability, their eardrums gets
teared at an early age due to which they can dive more deeply in the
ocean and also the size of their spleen is also 50 % bigger than normal
human being and also the haemoglobin concentration in their blood is
very high because of which they can hold their breath for a long time
underwater.
This is the sole inspiration of creation of a character which can be seen in
a world renowned film. Id the film (be specific)
35. As a youth, this gentleman identified himself as communist, anti-
monarchist and anti-clerical and was imprisoned in 1924 briefly. In 1930s
he became involved in the Workers' and Peasants' Front. However, in later
years, Andrè Breton accused him of being sympathetic to Hitler.
His works often featured graphic and symbolic sexual images often evoking
disgust.
I'd this eccentric personality.

In 1981, a group of Philippine-born macaque monkeys were used in
neuroscience research. The head researcher, a psychologist named
Edward Taub, was interested in seeing if the adult brain was capable of
neuroplasticity, the ability to remap connections after some kind of injury.
The controversy began in 1981, when a graduate student began
volunteering in Taub's research lab. He worked late at night, when he was
able to take pictures of the lab and video taped monkey behavior. Police
raided the Institute for Behavioral Research (Silver Spring, Maryland, USA)
seizing a number of macaque monkeys in response to accusations of
something against the neuroscientist Edward Taub.
The question is what entity was launched thus?

The first murders of X were the shootings of
Betty Lou Jensen and David Arthur Faraday
on 1968 on Lake Herman Road. At about
10:15 p.m., Faraday parked his mother's
Rambler in a gravel turnout, which was a
well-known lovers' lane. Shortly after 11:00
p.m., their bodies were found by Stella
Borges, who lived nearby.
And that was the start of a series of such
gory murders.
I'd X who was the subject of a 2007 Fincher
film.
47. • In 1930s car was a luxury commodity in Germany . But Hitler
wanted to launch inexpensive family car. Based on his orders a
company was established by Nazi Labour Force named ‘X’ which
means “people’s car” in German . So finally a “bug shaped” car
was launched designed by Ferdinand Porsche. After WW2 the
mass production of the bug shaped car was started and over 2 Cr
cars were sold of that particular model.
• Just identify the company and tell me the name of the model
that was firstly launched .

Recently, a film festival organized by Ravenshaw University
of Cuttack faced a tough opposition from right-wing
supporters who wanted to ban 'Gay India Matrimony', 'Had
Anhad' and similar films and documentaries. Strange
enough, two Ray films also faced backlash from the right-
wingers.
According to them, X is disrespectful to Draupadi , due to
her anglicized name in the title and Y refutes the Indian
family values. (Though Hoichoi has more explicit version of
such a relationship)
I'd the two films X and Y.

Way back in Colonel Duffin was commanding officer at
Berhampore Cantonment. On a December evening he was
playing a cricket match in Berhampore Cantonment. X, the
then Deputy Collector was going back home on his palanquin
being unaware of the fact that his bearers would go across
square field. This created an obstruction and the undesired
event happened. Col Duffin being an usual rough British
assaulted and humiliated X. X went to court and after a series
of events Duffin had to apologize. According to theory this
incident propelled X to create Y in 1874 to fuel the blood of
the Indians. Simply identify X and his soul unifying Y.

our heart?
