Generation 1.5|Sal Mubarak~ Happy 2006! Episode
Have you ever found it amusing that non-Christian Indians celebrate Christmas with such zest, especially when living abroad? In this episode I reminisce about my family's odd way of celebrating - or not celebrating - Christmas as my brother and sister and I were growing up.And I wish you Eid Mubarak, a Satisfying Maker Sakranti, Fun-Filled Pongal, an Amazing Uttarayan, Fiery Lori and, of course, Sal Mubarak too! Hope the New Year brings you many occasions to celebrate.For the musically oriented, you will notice that with the fresh new year, I have changed my theme music. I hope you like it as much as I do! This exhuberant piece is calledVarunapriya(English titleRain) and is by an amazing artist named Vijayaditya Ayyagari. He has basedVarunapriyaon the 24th Melakartha Varunapriya Raagam (Carnatic). If this tantalizing taste of his music makes you crave more, go toGanesh's Corner, where he describes Aditya's music in great detail (and has also included several samples).I highly recommend checking it out!
