Under Dr. Bharat Thakkar’s watchful eye, the book’s authors offer insights that perhaps no other work could.” Mayank Chhaya, Journalist & Writer, Naperville, IL, USA ** "Cultures transcend national borders and bias the way we understand the subjective reality of our existence. Failure to understand, appreciate, and navigate cultural differences is a failure to understanding the symbiotic nature of how we communicate ideas, manage ourselves and businesses, and align ourselves with the physical, psychological, and spiritual needs of our humanity."

Magodi Mystic

By: Bharat Thakkar

Dr. Bharat Thakkar is a highly regarded engineer, quality control expert and popular teacher by profession. By disposition and output he is a widely read poet, both in his mother tongue Gujarati and English. Professor Thakkar is also a consummate raconteur. Over a career spanning 45 years he has written extensively both as an engineering mind and a poetic soul. Magodi Mystic is his second collection of poems in English. The first one was Humming Horizons in 1995. During the intervening 17 years Professor Thakka has been busy with his professional life even as he has quietly created Magodi Mystic, often while traveling by train from Wheaton to Chicago for work. Magodi Mystic reads like a much more determined reflection on a life well spent. It is particularly gratifying that he has kept his passion to write alive all these years in the face of a professional calling that is rather unforgiving of flights of fancy. - Sam Pitroda, Advisor to the Prime Minister of India Mysticism, spirituality, love, and an eye for beauty hidden in plain sight make Thakkar a poet worth reading. - Kevin Sorbello, Editor, New Poets Press The hyacinths of love, pictorial elements and mystical touches bloom in Magodi Mystic in an impressive array of the poets craftsmanship. - Dr. Stephen Gill, Poet Laureate of Ansted University

Hindi Cinema and Pakistan

Screening the Idea and the Reality

By: Meenakshi Bharat

Ever since the 1947 partition of the Indian subcontinent, Mumbai-based Hindi cinema has been returning compulsively to the idea of Pakistan, sometimes as the desirable other, sometimes as the horrifying antagonist. Hindi Cinema and Pakistan traces the genesis and development of this theme in Hindi cinema in the 1950s, showcasing its relevance as a tool that both reflects and shapes how India sees its neighbour, the India–Pakistan relationship, and itself. The book is a serious, multi-platform, multi-pronged exploration of the appearances, invocations, representations and treatment of Pakistan and Pakistanis in Hindi cinema. It follows Hindi cinema’s efforts to come to terms with the ‘idea’ and ‘reality’ of Pakistan. Through in-depth analyses of the enmity and rivalry between the two subcontinental nations in Partition films, thrillers, epic war films and sports films, to screen depictions of the shared cultural past and similarities in films on cross-border love or in films that show a reaching out through humour, this book investigates the visualization of Pakistan and contextualizes these representations within the broader frameworks of India’s political, socio-cultural and popular discourse. The extensive reach of the in-depth textual analyses of Hindi cinema will make this volume interesting and valuable both to the lay reader and to researchers and academics of cultural studies, media and film studies, and the study of socio-psychological violence in media and culture.

Transcendent Truth

By: Bharat Thakkar

Dr. Bharat Thakkar, Ph. D., is a highly regarded, reliability and quality control expert and teacher by profession. By disposition he is a widely read poet in both his mother tongue Gujarati and English as well as a reconteur. Over a career spanning 45 years in Chicago he has written extensively both as an engineering mind a poetic soul. Apart from his critically acclaimed Gujarati poetry collections, he has written two collections of poems in English - "Humming Horizons" in 1995 and "Magodi Mystic" in 2013. I recommend that those interested in spending some time in the slow and deliberate world of poetry amid the frenzied information age read Dr. Thakkar's collection, if only to enjoy a poet's ruminations. -Mayank Chhaya, Journalist and writer. Naperville, IL. Dr. Bharat Thakkar has found a voice that combines an educated mind with the heart of an Eastern child. -Dr. Kevin Sorbello, Professor, Capela University Las Vegas, NV
