Belagavi Ramakrishna Mission Ashrama celebrates silver jubilee

Belagavi: An environment should be created in the country where followers of different religions can live in harmony. Vivekananda's thoughts are a model for a life of harmony, coexistence and peace. They are complementary to the progress of the country, said law and parliamentary affairs and tourism minister HK Patil while attending the silver jubilee celebration of Ramakrishna Mission Ashrama in Belagavi on Sunday. The site holds profound historical and spiritual importance as Swami Vivekananda stayed here for nine days during his visit to Belagavi in 1892. Swami Gautamanandaji Maharaj, president of Ramakrishna Math and Mission Belur; Swami Atmaprananand of Ramakrishna Ashram, Belagavi; DR Patil, ex-MLA Gadag; and VV Bhaskar, former director general of police, Karnataka, participated. Inaugurating the event, Patil said Vivekananda's dream would come true only if God is recognised in the service to humanity. Untouchability, ignorance, and superstition should be eradicated in the country, and human service should flourish. Untouchability is still rampant in rural areas. "The feeling that we are all one has not yet come to all people. When that feeling comes, then we will have perfectly followed Vivekananda's message," he said. The state govt, adopting the visionary ideas of Vivekananda, is trying to bring even the most marginalised person of society into the mainstream. According to the United Nations standards, those who earn less than Rs 200 per day are poor. The state govt is providing an income guarantee of at least Rs 5,000 per month to every family, he said. Former MLA DR Patil said the activities of Ramakrishna Ashram are aimed at building a better society. Cooperation will be provided for all the activities of the ashram. Swami Gautamanandaji Maharaj, president of the Ramakrishna Math, Belur, said the Ramakrishna Ashrama, Belagavi, has been a beacon of Vivekananda's ideals in North Karnataka. Recalling his days of association with the Ramakrishna Ashrama, former DIG VV Bhaskar expressed pride about the service of the Ashram. Dr Mallikarjun V Joli, the chief executive of KLE Cancer Hospital Belagavi, delivered the vote of thanks.

When an individual aspires to be an actor or to enter the showbiz industry, they think of moving ahead with name, fame, and success. However, in many cases, there are actors and actresses who, despite having the name and fame, meet with a tragic end. Today, we will discuss an actress who became the first one to receive an award at an international film festival in the year 1963. Not just that, she was loved by millions of her fans. However, her end gave horrors to people who got to know she had passed away. If you are wondering who we are discussing, then this person is none other than one of the most celebrated and fine actresses in Indian cinema – Suchitra Sen. Suchitra started her journey with Bengali cinema in 1952. Two years later, Sen moved to Hindi cinema and then worked in the industry for almost three decades. During this time, she worked in over 30 films and was even paired opposite Uttam Kumar. The duo gave some major hits. Sen also gave some iconic hits such as Devdas, Aandhi, Bambai Ka Babu, and Mamta. Till the mid-70s, Suchitra became one of the top actresses in the industry. Movies like Aandhi received critical acclaim and Datta was a commercial success. However, after these two films, Suchitra appeared in only one film. Her last release – Pranay Pasha in 1978 – turned out to be a huge failure. Coming to Suchitra's personal life, she got married at a young age. It was her in-laws and husband who supported Suchitra to pursue her dream of becoming an actor. However, when Suchitra Sen's stardom peaked, she remained busy most of the days, giving less time to her family and husband. As a result, it created massive fights between the two. Not just that, Suchitra's husband also drowned himself in alcohol and then left Suchitra and went to America. He died there in the year 1970. After Suchitra distanced herself from the acting field, the actress confined herself and locked herself in a room for 36 years. She used to sleep and eat in the same room. Even no family member was allowed to meet her. Not just that, whenever the actress would step out of her room at home, her face would always be covered with a cloth. And when she died in 2014, her face was covered and no one was allowed to see her face. It was said that Suchitra joined the Bharat Maharaj of Ramakrishna Ashram and devoted herself to spirituality.
