Jawaharlal Nehru Requested Her To Sing On Independence Day, Even Mahatma Gandhi Heard Her Bhajans

Published by Parlour News

Over the decades, Indian cinema and music have been shaped by voices that went far beyond entertainment. Long before film soundtracks dominated popular culture, songs were deeply woven into devotion, patriotism, and collective emotion. Music was a way to comfort, inspire and unite people, especially when the nation was still finding its voice against the British Raj. Before television screens and cinema halls became common, radio was the heartbeat of Indian households. Families gathered around it for news, prayer, and music. At the time, one singer’s voice carried an unmistakable calm and strength. Her songs resonated so deeply that they reached the highest offices of the country, touching leaders, freedom fighters and ordinary citizens alike. She became a presence not just in homes, but in the emotional fabric of a nation in transition. That singer was Juthika Roy, later known fondly as “Adhunik Meera.” Born on April 20, 1920, in Amta in Bengal’s Howrah district, Roy’s musical journey began at a remarkably young age. She recorded her first album in 1932 when she was just …

Sponsor requested Corporation to waive 10% entertainment tax for match

Published by Parlour News

Reporter Broadcasting Corporation (RBC) had requested the Kochi Corporation to waive and exempt the entertainment tax for the proposed international friendly match it was sponsoring, featuring the Argentina national team. The match, originally scheduled for November 17, has since been called off. RBC managing director wrote to Mayor M. Anilkumar on October 16. As per the Local Self-Government department’s order dated January 31, 2024, the Corporation is entitled to 10% of the ticket fare as entertainment tax.

The RBC request was included as an agenda item in the Corporation’s Finance Standing Committee meeting held on Tuesday (November 4), for which the notice had been prepared on October 24.
