Grahan

Sans the controversy, Grahan on ”If the Prime Minister of a country is not safe, citizens of that country are responsible for their own safety.” The first line of the Grahan trailer hits hard as we see Indira Gandhi strutting about with her hands folded together. Following this, it delivers a horrifying throwback to one of the worst massacres in Indian history — the 1984 anti-Sikh riots that lasted for about four days, resulting in mass murders and rapes. Disney+Hotstar’s Grahan real story — Inspired by a 2018 novel by Satya Vyas, Chaurasi , which translates to the number 84 in English, Grahan is a story divided into eight episodes and three decades. After 32 years, in 2016, an appeal to reopen the pending cases of the riots is executed, and the charge is given to the head of the SIT (Special Investigative Team), Amrita Singh (played by Zoya Hussain). Posted at Ranchi, Singh lives with her Sikh father, Gursevak (Pavan Malhotra), who wants her to marry and move to Canada with her fiancé Karthik (Nandish Sandhu). However, after getting charge of the new case of the 1984 riots, Singh’s relationship takes an unprecedented turn as she finds that her father Gursevak is the prime suspect Rishi Ranjan in the case. Running on a moral treadmill at an unexpected velocity, Singh’s life is torn between her duty as a daughter and an officer. The story spans over three decades — 80s, 90s, and 2010s — giving the script a non-linear narrative that needs to pick pace with every episode. Apa...

It will begin streaming from June 24. Disney Plus Hotstar’s upcoming web series Grahan has landed in trouble ahead of its release on June 24. The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) president Bibi Jagir Kaur has said the web series portrays a Sikh character in an “objectionable manner”. A witness of the 1984 riots has also sent a legal notice to the makers. Directed by Ranjan Chandel, the eight-episode series is set in 1984 when the nation was shaken by the riots that took place after the assassination of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. The show is inspired by the novel Chaurasi by Satya Vyas. Talking to reporters in Amritsar on Monday, Bibi Jagir Kaur said, “A Sikh character has been portrayed in an objectionable manner in a web series called Grahan based on the 1984 Sikh genocide.

Are you excited and optimistic about a goal to be achieved soon, and suddenly you see that you are in the midst of a roadblock with no escape? Doe this happen with you very often? Are you facing failure in a career even if you have given more than 100% at your work? Are you always in financial debts? Then, this may be a sign of the existence of the Grahan Dosha in your horoscope. Grahan Dosha in Vedic Astrology Grahan Dosh is a situation when Sun or Moon comes in the same house with Rahu or Ketu in your birth chart, or at the lagna period. Rahu or Ketu are always moving in the opposite direction. Their attributes are also opposite to each other. Rahu denotes material desire, aggression, and passion. While, Ketu signifies moksha, detachment, and silence. Rahu and Ketu, like the other planets, are orbiting around the sun. It is during this revolution around the Sun or Moon that Rahu or Ketu can be in the line of the sun or the moon at one point of time. When this happens, mostly during a solar or lunar eclipse, the child will have a birth chart with Grahan Dosh. Surya Grahan Dosha Sun represents father, control and discipline. While Moon represents mother, passion, and love. Hence, when Rahu or Ketu, come close to the Sun or Moon, it will lead to extremes of these emotions. Therefore, life will never remain in balance. Effects According to Vedic Astrology, anyone who has Grahan Dosha in the birth chart has a life full of difficulties. His/ her life remains in darkness like t...

You have probably heard of hiking in the Himalayas in Nepal, but what about hiking in the Himalayas in India? We recently spent a month in India to kick off a longer year of travel. From our very first day in Delhi, we started hearing about the magic of hiking in the Indian Himalayas. As hikers and mountain lovers, it didn’t take too long to convince us to switch up our original plans of visiting the South and spend our final week in India in the mountains instead.
