'''''Ratsasan''''' ({{translation|[[Rakshasa|Demon]]}}) is a 2018 Indian [[Tamil language|Tamil]]-language [[psychological]] [[Slasher film|slasher]] film written and directed by Ram Kumar. The film stars [[Vishnu Vishal]], [[Amala Paul]], and Saravanan, while [[Kaali Venkat]], [[Munishkanth]], [[Vinodhini Vaidyanathan]], and [[Ammu Abhirami|Abhirami]] play supporting roles. The film features music and a background score composed by [[Ghibran]], cinematography by P. V. Shankar, and editing by San Lokesh. It tells the story of an aspiring film director who becomes a police officer after his father's death and tries to track down a [[serial killer]].

The film was released on 5 October 2018 to critical acclaim. It was remade in [[Telugu language|Telugu]] as ''[[Rakshasudu (2019 film)|Rakshasudu]]'' and in [[Hindi]] as ''[[Cuttputlli]]''.

==Plot==
In the opening scene, two elderly men discover the corpse of Samyuktha, a 15-year-old schoolgirl who was brutally murdered. Arun Kumar, an aspiring filmmaker passionate about psychopaths, becomes a sub-inspector in the Tamil Nadu Police under family pressure and help from his brother-in-law, Doss, who is a Circle Inspector of police. Arun moves in with his sister Kokila, Doss, and their daughter Ammu. After an incident at school involving Ammu, Arun meets her teacher, Viji, and gradually befriends both her and her hearing and speech-impaired niece, Kayal.

Meanwhile, Arun investigates the abduction of a schoolgirl, Amudha, and notices similarities to Samyuktha’s case, especially a mutilated doll at Amudha’s house. His superior, ACP Lakshmi, dismisses his theory. Soon after, Amudha’s corpse is found. Pathologist Dr. Nandan confirms that the same modus operandi was used. A few days later, another hearing-impaired girl, Meera, is also abducted and murdered.

The investigation leads to Inbaraj, a teacher at Ammu’s new school. Inbaraj, a [[Pedophilia|pedophile]], is caught after a victim tips off Arun. Although he confesses to sexual abuse, he denies involvement in the murders. During an attempted escape, Inbaraj holds a policeman at gunpoint but is shot dead by Arun. That same day, Ammu is abducted from her birthday party, and her mutilated body is found in the car trunk. A devastated Arun and Doss hide the truth from Kokila and return home.

Arun is suspended for his actions and begins investigating unofficially. With help from a few officers, he traces a piano tune from Meera’s hearing aid to magician Annabella George, who had performed at all the victims' schools. Arun learns that Annabella randomly selected students during her shows, later abducting and killing them. The next target is a girl named Sanjana. Despite surveillance, she is abducted, but Arun and his team manage to rescue her. However, Annabella escapes.

Arun meets retired cop Rajamanickam, who reveals Annabella’s real identity as Mary Fernandez. Her son, Christopher, has Werner Syndrome (progeria), a condition that causes premature ageing. Christopher, a gifted magician and pianist, was mocked at school despite befriending a girl named Sophia. After she rejected his romantic advances due to his condition and avoided him, he was humiliated by his classmates. Mary, enraged, murdered Sophia. Both were arrested but presumed dead in an accident.

Rajamanickam suspects Mary may still be alive and warns Arun. But before revealing everything, he is killed. Arun finds clues suggesting that Christopher is alive and has been impersonating Mary, who died in the accident. Before he can inform Lakshmi, Christopher attacks Viji and kidnaps Kayal.

Christopher kills Venkat and Dr. Nandan while trying to silence anyone who could expose him. Arun tracks Christopher and confronts him in a violent fight. He ultimately kills Christopher and rescues Kayal, though he is injured.

The case concludes with the media reporting the end of the serial murders. Arun, now recognised, finally gets a chance to make a film about a psychopath, fulfilling his dream.

== Production ==
Following the release of the comedy ''[[Mundasupatti]]'' (2014), Ramkumar was keen to do a serious film to avoid being [[Typecasting|typecast]]. He was inspired to write a film on a psycho killer after reading an international news story about the Russian serial killer [[Alexander Spesivtsev]], and spent close to a year writing a fictional screenplay to fit around the character of a psycho killer. Ramkumar initially struggled to find an actor to play the lead role of a forty-year-old man with a child, and despite working the child out of the script as a result, he still found it difficult to convince actors to sign the film.<ref name=":0" /> In April 2016, actor [[Jai (actor)|Jai]] signed the project titled ''Ratsasan'', which was set to be produced by [[C. V. Kumar]] of Thirukumaran Entertainment.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Jai's next is 'Ratchasan' |url=http://www.sify.com/movies/jai-s-next-is-ratchasan-news-tamil-qe0lpVhdiiccf.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181004022720/http://www.sify.com/movies/jai-s-next-is-ratchasan-news-tamil-qe0lpVhdiiccf.html |archive-date=4 October 2018 |website=[[Sify]]}}</ref> However, soon after the actor and director dropped out of the project, and producer took the title of ''Ratsasan'' with him. Subsequently, throughout the production stage, the film was briefly known as ''Cinderella'' and then ''Minmini'', but neither title was kept. The former title was claimed by another Tamil film's producers, while Ramkumar felt the latter seemed too light-hearted. Eventually, the team members managed to amicably convince Kumar to offer them the title of ''Ratsasan''.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|date=1 October 2018|title=The psycho killer in 'Ratchasan' is based on a real person: Director Ramkumar to TNM|url=https://www.thenewsminute.com/article/psycho-killer-ratchasan-based-real-person-director-ramkumar-tnm-89232|access-date=6 November 2018|website=[[The News Minute]]|last=Shekar|first=Anjana|archive-date=11 February 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190211204249/https://www.thenewsminute.com/article/psycho-killer-ratchasan-based-real-person-director-ramkumar-tnm-89232|url-status=live}}</ref>

[[Mohamaad Ghibran|Ghibran]] composed the soundtrack and background score of ''Ratsasan''. He began composing the soundtrack in early 2017. He also finished composing the theme music for the film's [[Teaser (trailer)|teaser]] in August 2018. The album features four songs composed by Ghibran and lyrics written by Umadevi, Ramkumar, Ratnakumar and GKB. One song, "Kaadhal Kadal Dhana", was released as a single on 15 September 2018.

The album was released on 27 September 2018, at the [[Suryan FM|Suryan FM Radio Station]], [[Chennai]] featuring the composer and other crew members present during the crew members present in the event. V. Lakshmi from ''[[The Times of India]]'' gave a positive review for the soundtrack and stated "Kaadhal Kadal Dhana" as "a romantic melody, a genre that Ghibran is a master at. Slow and lullaby-like, the persistent strings in the background are soothing, and despite distinct arrangements, the vocals are pronounced enough to make an impact".<ref>{{cite news |last1=Lakshmi |first1=V. |date=5 October 2018 |title=Music Review: Ratsasan |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/tamil/music/music-review-ratsasan/articleshow/66086777.cms |work=The Times of India |access-date=15 August 2025 |archive-date=1 December 2025 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20251201005630/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/tamil/music/music-review-ratsasan/articleshow/66086777.cms |url-status=live }}</ref>

''Ram Ki Janmabhoomi'', which revolves around the [[Ram Mandir]] issue, faced a legal challenge prior to its release.

==History==
In May 1957, seven prominent Filipinos were named to the founding board of trustees of the Ramon Magsaysay Award Foundation, the non-profit corporation tasked with implementing the awards program. Later on, the board of trustees diversified and included prominent Asians from all over the Asian continent and outlying islands. The Ramon Magsaysay Award Foundation gives the prize to Asian individuals achieving excellence in their respective fields.

The award is named after [[Ramon Magsaysay]], the [[List of presidents of the Philippines|seventh]] [[president of the Philippines]]. This has generated criticism<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Singh Negi |first1=Rajender|date=August 23, 2008|title=Magsaysay Award: Asian Nobel, Not so Noble|url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/40277873|journal=Economic and Political Weekly |volume=43|issue=34|pages=14–16|doi= |jstor=40277873 |access-date=February 26, 2023}}</ref> due to allegations of brutal suppression of dissent and subserviency to the [[US government]] during Magsaysay's tenure as [[Secretary of National Defense (Philippines)|defense secretary]] and president.{{cn|date=September 2024}}

==Award categories==
The award recognizes and honors individuals and organizations in Asia regardless of race, creed, sex, or nationality, who have achieved distinction in their respective fields and have helped others generously without anticipating public recognition.

The awards used to be given in six categories, five of which were discontinued in 2009:
* Government Service (1958–2008)
* Public Service (1958–2008)
* Community Leadership (1958–2008)
* Journalism, Literature, and Creative Communication Arts (1958–2008)
* Peace and International Understanding (1958–2008)
* Emergent Leadership (since 2001)

== Awardees ==
The winners of the Ramon Magsaysay Awards come from different parts of Asia, although there are some instances where the winners came from countries outside Asia who had served, worked or accomplished something in different Asian countries. As of 2021, recipients have come from twenty-two Asian countries.

The following is a partial list of the awardees of the Ramon Magsaysay Award.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20170426142631/http://www.rmaf.org.ph/newrmaf/main/awardees/filter/all/all/yearawarded/all/1 Complete list of awardees by year]</ref> Awardees' individual nationality or country of origin and citizenship are indicated.

Starting 2009, the Award is no longer being given in fixed categories except for Emergent Leadership.

===Government Service (1958–2008)===

{{Chalukyas|Vatapi}}
'''Vijaya-Bhattarika''' (r. {{Circa|650}}-655 CE) was a member of the [[Chalukyas of Vatapi|Chalukya]] royal family of [[Deccan]] region in southern India. She is known from her Nerur and Kochre grant inscriptions, which call her Vijaya-Bhattarika and '''Vijaya-Mahadevi''' respectively.

Vijaya-Bhatarika was the wife of [[Chandraditya (Chalukya dynasty)|Chandraditya]], who appears to have held the weakened Chalukya throne for a brief period, in the years following the [[Pallava dynasty|Pallava]] invasion of the Chalukya capital Vatapi. After Chandraditya's death, Vijaya-Bhattarika seems to have acted as a regent for their minor son. Subsequently, the throne passed to her brother-in-law [[Vikramaditya I]], who had probably become the de facto ruler during her regency, after having restored the dynasty's power as the supreme commander of the Chalukya army.

Vijaya-Bhattarika is known from her Nerur and Kochre (or Kochri) inscriptions, which register her land grants to [[brahmin|brahmanas]].{{sfn|T. V. Mahalingam|1977|p=73}} The Nerur inscription calls her "Vijaya-Bhaṭṭārika", while the Kochre inscription calls her "Vijaya-Mahādevī".{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=116}}

== Political status ==

Vijaya-Bhattarika's husband Chandraditya was one of the sons of the powerful Chalukya king [[Pulakeshin II]], who was defeated and probably killed during the [[Pallava dynasty|Pallava]] invasion of the Chalukya capital [[Vatapi]] around {{Circa|642 CE}}. The Chalukya power was restored by Chandraditya's younger brother [[Vikramaditya I]] around {{Circa|655 CE}}, and the Chalukya history during the intervening period is uncertain: it is possible that after Pulakeshin's death, his son [[Adityavarman (Chalukya dynasty)|Adityavarman]] held the throne, followed by Adityavarman's son [[Abhinavaditya]], and then by Chandraditya.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|pp=116-118}}

The theory that Vijaya-Bhattarika ruled as a regent for her minor son after Chandraditya's death is based on the following facts:{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=117}}

* Her Nerur and Kochre inscriptions accord her husband imperial titles, and her the titles of a chief queen: ''Mahishi'', ''Bhattarika'', and ''Mahadevi''.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=117}}
* The inscriptions are dated in her own regnal years, which suggests that Chandraditya was dead when these grants were issued.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=117}}
* The inscriptions describe Vikramaditya as the person who restored Chalukya power by defeating hostile kings, but do not accord him any royal title.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=117}}

It is possible that Vikramaditya rose to prominence after having restored the dynasty's power as the supreme commander of the Chalukya army, and became the de facto ruler during the regency of Vijaya-Bhattarika.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|pp=118-119}} Later, he formally ascended the Chalukya throne, possibly after the son of Vijaya-Bhattarika and Chandraditya died (naturally or otherwise).{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=117}}

The Nerur inscription suggests that she ruled as a regent for at least 5 years.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|pp=118-119}}

== Identification with Vijayanka and Vijja ==

[[Rajashekhara (Sanskrit poet)|Rajashekhara]], a noted Sanskrit poet and dramatist of the 9th-10th century, mentions a woman poet called Vijayanka, who belonged to the historical [[Karnata Kingdom|Karnata]] region (in present-day [[Karnataka]]). This region was a part of the Chalukya territory, and based on similarity of names, some modern scholars - such as M. B. Padma of [[University of Mysore]] - have identified this poet with the Chalukya royal Vijaya-Bhattarika.{{sfn|M. B. Padma|1993|p=167}} A verse, attributed to Rajashekhara in Jalhana's ''[[Suktimuktavali]]'', compares Vijayanka to [[Sarasvati]], the goddess of wisdom and learning.{{sfn|A. K. Warder|1994|p=421}}

Vijayanka, in turn, has been identified by some scholars with [[Vijja]], a Sanskrit woman poet known from major anthologies of Sanskrit verses. One of the verses from these anthologies compares Vijja to the goddess of learning, [[Sarasvati]], and states that she had a dark complexion unlike the goddess. This verse also mentions the famous poet [[Daṇḍin]] (a native of southern India), calling him wrong for describing Sarasvati as "all-white".{{sfn|A. K. Warder|1994|pp=421-422}}{{sfn|Supriya Banik Pal|2010|p=152}} The verse may be considered as evidence supporting Vijja's connections to south India, where the Chalukyas ruled, but there is no concrete proof that she was same as the Chalukya royal Vijaya-Bhattarika.{{sfn|A. K. Warder|1994|pp=421-422}} In fact, such an identification results in chronological improbabilities: the poet whose works mention the 8th century poet Dandin could not have been the 7th century royal Vijaya-Bhattarika, unless she lived until the end of the century, and deigned to notice a verse by a much younger author.{{sfn|A. K. Warder|1994|p=422}} The names "Vijaya" (literally "victory") and "Vijayanka" (literally "having the mark of victory") have a different meaning from the name Vijja (literally "knowledge" or "science").{{sfn|A. K. Warder|1994|p=421}}

{{Short description|1794 battle in the Maratha–Sikh wars}}
The '''Battle of Mardanpur''' was fought between the Sikh forces of Patiala state led by [[Bibi Sahib Kaur]] and the Maratha forces led by Lakshmi Rao.

==Background==

In 1794, a large force led by Lakshmi Rao, Anta Rao and Lachhman Rao crossed the [[Jamuna river|Yamuna]] and marched towards [[Patiala]].{{Sfn|Gandhi|1999|p=505}} Raja Bhag Singh of Jhind, Jodh Singh of [[Kalsia]], Bhanga Singh and Mehtab Singh of [[Thanesar]] and the [[Bhadaur]] sardars Dip Singh and Bir Singh agreed to join her while [[Sardar Tara Singh Ghaiba]] sent a detachment. These forces combined numbered around 7,000. They marched to meet the Marathas at Mardanpur.{{Sfn|Griffin|1873|p=71}}

==Battle==

The Marathas had initially defeated the Sikh contingent, and the latter retreated to Rajpura. Sahib Kaur, following an impassioned speech, rallied the Sikhs to return to Patiala and once again fight the Marathas. The next day, the Sikhs attacked the advance guard of the Marathas, who were later reinforced by the remaining army. During the night, after both sides had retreated to their camps, the Sikhs made a surprise attack on Madho Rao who was busy performing the funerary rites of his dead soldiers, however, the Marathas successfully prevented the Sikhs from infiltrating their camp. Following another attack by the Sikhs before dawn, the Marathas retired to Karnal.{{sfn|Gandhi|1999|p=505}}

== Activism ==

On the matter of women's rights, Govindguru Banjara critiqued upper-caste treatment of women and argued that tribal practices were better for women.<ref>{{Cite book|title=We Were Adivasis: Aspiration in an Indian Scheduled Tribe|last=Moodie|first=Megan|publisher=University of Chicago Press|year=2015|isbn=9780226253183|location=Chicago and London|pages=113}}</ref> He declared Rajputs and Brahmins inferior in this respect because they degraded women, citing the Rajput custom of female infanticide and the Rajput and Brahmin prohibition against widow remarriage.<ref name=":3" />

=== Political positions ===
Govindguru Banjara teachings were originally aimed at social and religious reform but he gradually "developed a strong critique of hierarchy and exploitation"<ref name=":1" /> of the tribals by ruling classes. He advised the tribals that their destitution was caused by princely rulers and ''[[Jagirdar system|jagirdars]]''.<ref name=":1" /> Govindguru preached that Bhils, Banjara were the rightful owners of the land and they also the right to rule over it.<ref name=":1" /> He envisioned the establishment of a Bhil ''Raj'' (Bhil state) in the hills of Sunth and Banswara states, restoring a Bhil kingdom that existed eight hundred years back.<ref name=":1" />

=== Support and opposition ===
Within a short time, Govindguru Banjara garnered a large following among the tribals in the states of [[Sant State|Sunth]], [[Banswara State|Banswara]], [[Dungarpur State|Dungarpur]] and the British districts of [[Panchmahal district|Panch Mahals]].<ref name=":7">{{Cite book|url=https://archive.org/details/apz5770.0001.001.umich.edu|title=The Rewakantha Directory|last=Parmar|first=Ladhabhai Harji|publisher=Parmar Press|year=1922|location=Rajkot|pages=[https://archive.org/details/apz5770.0001.001.umich.edu/page/25 25]}}</ref> He faced active opposition from the rulers of the states in which he preached.<ref name=":3" /> Reasons cited for the opposition include decreased revenues from liquor sales (because of Govindguru forbidding liquor to his disciples) and the subversion of the ruler's authority because of Govindguru growing influence.<ref name=":3" />

=== First arrest and release ===
Govindgiri's activities after 1907 received opposition from state officials and liquor contractors, and the [[Dungarpur State]] arrested him in late-1912 or early-1913.<ref name=":8">{{Cite journal|last=Vashishtha|first=Vijay Kumar|date=1991|title=The Bhil Revolt of 1913 Under Guru Govindgiri Among the Bhils of Southern Rajasthan and its Impact|journal=Proceedings of the Indian History Congress|volume=52|pages=522–527}}</ref> The state accused him of deceiving his followers, confiscated his savings and pressured him to stop his movement by imprisoning his wife and child (or children).<ref name=":3" /> However, he was released in April 1913 without being tried and ordered to leave Dungarpur State.<ref name=":3" />

=== Events at Mangadh ===

'''Dhaniram Toto''' (born 1964) is an Indian writer, language activist and government employee from the Toto community of West Bengal. He is known for developing the script of the endangered [[Toto language]] and for his literary contributions in the language. In 2023, he was awarded the [[Padma Shri]], India's fourth-highest civilian award, in the field of Literature and Education.<ref name="ie">{{Cite web |title=Fight to save dying Toto language: Dhaniram Toto gets Padma Award |url=https://bengali.indianexpress.com/west-bengal/fight-to-save-dying-toto-language-dhaniram-toto-gets-padma-award-538303/ |website=The Indian Express |access-date=19 March 2023}}</ref><ref name="pib">{{Cite web |title=Padma Awards 2023 announced |url=https://www.pib.gov.in/PressReleasePage.aspx?PRID=1893797 |publisher=Press Information Bureau, Government of India |access-date=27 January 2023}}</ref>

==Early life and education==

Dhaniram Toto was born in Totopara village under the Madarihat-Birpara Community Development Block of Alipurduar district, West Bengal. He is the middle son of Amepa Toto and Lakshmini Toto. His father served as the last traditional head of the Toto community's indigenous council.

He studied up to Class X but could not continue regular education following the death of his father in 1976. He later completed his secondary education through the West Bengal Rabindra Mukta Vidyalaya Parishad.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Bharat |first=E. T.

==Literary career==

Toto has written poetry, novels and essays in the Toto language. His notable works include:

* ''Uttal Torsa'' and ''Dhanua Toto Kathamala'' <ref>{{cite news |last1=Ghosh |first1=Bishwanath |title=A dictionary to save a language from extinction |url=https://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/kolkata/a-dictionary-with-the-purpose-of-saving-a-bengal-language-from-dying/article67356202.ece |url-access=subscription |access-date=14 February 2026 |work=[[The Hindu]] |date=28 September 2023 |language=en-IN}}</ref>

==Creation of the Toto script==

Although the [[Toto language]] belongs to the [[Sino-Tibetan languages|Sino-Tibetan family]], it historically lacked an independent script and was written using the Bengali script. In 2005, Dhaniram Toto began efforts to develop a distinct writing system for the language.

He collaborated with Australian linguist Toby Anderson during the process. After nearly a decade of research and experimentation, the Toto script was formally introduced on 22 May 2015. The script consists of 22 consonants, 9 vowels and 6 diphthongs, totalling 37 characters.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Dasgupta |first1=Debarshi |title=One letter at a time – Toto tribal community in eastern India strives to protect its language |url=https://www.straitstimes.com/asia/south-asia/one-letter-at-a-time-toto-tribal-community-in-eastern-india-strives-to-protect-its-language |access-date=14 February 2026 |work=[[The Straits Times]] |date=25 October 2023 |language=en}}</ref>

The script has received international recognition, including registration under ISO 15924 (Code: Toto/294). His work is regarded as a significant step in safeguarding the linguistic identity of the Toto community.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Chakraborty |first1=Hritwick |last2=Saha |first2=Sajal |last3=Guha |first3=Ambalika |last4=Ballav |first4=Debanjan |last5=Mitra |first5=Soumi |title=Integrating Linguistics and AI: Morphological Analysis and Corpus development of Endangered Toto Language of West Bengal |journal=[[arXiv]] |date=6 September 2025 |volume=9 |issue=06 |pages=23 |publisher=[[Adamas University]] |issn=2096-4366 | via=[[arXiv]]}}</ref>

The '''Bombay Prohibition (Gujarat Amendment) Act, 2009''' is an Act of [[Gujarat Legislative Assembly]] which prohibits manufacture, selling, buying or distributing of ''Laththa'' (spurious liquor).

The Act defines ''Laththa'' as spurious liquor, which contains methanol or any other poisonous substances which may cause harmful or injurious effects to the human body or death of a person.

The Act also makes it a punishable offence for the person involved in construction or working in any distillery or brewery making ''laththa''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.home.gujarat.gov.in/homedepartment/downloads/2dec.pdf|title=Bombay Prohibition (Gujarat Amendment) 2009|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131127021731/http://home.gujarat.gov.in/homedepartment/downloads/2dec.pdf|archive-date=2013-11-27}}</ref>

The Act has a provision for death sentence or life imprisonment for those found guilty of manufacturing and selling spurious liquor in cases where those who consumed the spurious liquor have died. Vehicles seized in which the liquor is transported are auctioned and the proceeds deposited in the state government treasury.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report-bombay-prohibition-gujarat-amendment-bill-remains-unsigned-by-governor-1286287 |title=Bombay Prohibition (Gujarat Amendment) Bill remains unsigned by governor|publisher=Dnaindia.com |date=2009-08-30 |access-date=2016-08-06}}</ref>

'''''Self-Portrait as a Tahitian''''' is a [[self-portraiture]], an [[oil painting]] on [[canvas]] created in 1934 in Paris by Hungarian-born Indian artist [[Amrita Sher-Gil]]. It is held in the [[Kiran Nadar Museum of Art]], India. Under India's [[Antiquities and Art Treasures Act (1972)]] the work is a national art treasure and must stay in India.

In the painting Sher-Gil is portrayed in partial nudity in the shadow of an unknown male figure. A plain white cloth is wrapped around her lower body, leaving her slightly protruding abdomen, full body breasts and crossed arms naked. She is standing, with smaller Oriental figures in the background.

In 1934 the painting was exhibited at the [[Salon des Tuileries]], Paris, alongside her 1932 portrait of her friend [[Boris Taslitzky]], ''[[Young Man with Apples]]''. The work has been seen as Sher-Gil's response to seeing [[Paul Gauguin]]'s ''Faa Iheihe'' in London in 1933, and hence a tribute to him, with a combination of east and west. Paula Modersohn-Becker's ''[[Self-Portrait at 6th Wedding Anniversary]]'' was also likely familiar to her. Critics have varied in their view of the extent of influence by [[Vincent van Gogh]].

==Amrita Sher-Gil==
[[Amrita Sher-Gil]] (1913–1941) was born in Hungary to an Indian aristocrat and his [[History of the Jews in Hungary|Hungarian Jewish]] wife, an opera singer.<ref name=Dalmia2013.1>Dalmia, pp. 1-16</ref> After the [[First World War]], the family moved to [[Shimla]], India.<ref name=Dalmia2013.2>Dalmia, pp. 17-25</ref><ref name=Singh1975>{{cite journal |last1=Singh |first1=N Iqbal |title=Amrita Sher-Gil |journal=India International Centre Quarterly |date=1975 |volume=2 |issue=3 |pages=209–217 |jstor=23001838 |url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/23001838 |issn=0376-9771|url-access=subscription}}</ref> There, she was influenced by her uncle, [[Ervin Baktay]], who encouraged her to carefully observe the reality around her and transfer it to her work, particularly using [[Model (art)|live models]].<ref name=Dalmia2013.2/> At his suggestion, the family moved to Paris so that she could study art, first at the [[Académie de la Grande Chaumière]] and later the [[Beaux-Arts de Paris]], as a 16-year-old.<ref name="Dalmia2013.3">Dalmia, pp. 26-44</ref> Her mentors included [[Pierre Henri Vaillant]] and [[Lucien Simon]].<ref name=Dalmia2013.3/> Nineteen of Sher-Gil's works were self-portraits painted in Europe between 1930 and 1934.

Like Paula Modersohn-Becker's ''[[Self-Portrait at 6th Wedding Anniversary]]'', ''Self-Portrait As a Tahitian'' depicts a woman with early signs of pregnancy through her slightly rounded abdomen and full breasts.<ref name=Shaw2021>{{Cite thesis |title=Why Now?: The Euro-U.S. Canon Adopts Tarsila do Amaral and Amrita Sher-Gil Almost 90 Years Later |url=https://escholarship.org/uc/item/64k1h1vj |location=University of California Davis |date=2021 |language=en |first=Amanda |last=Shaw-Johnson}}</ref> Sher-Gil had also been pregnant, and been through two terminations.<ref name=Shaw2021/> The painting by Modersohn-Becker was likely familiar to her.<ref name=Shaw2021/>

==Interpretation==
Art critics [[W. G. Archer]] and [[Karl Jamshed Khandalavala|Karl J. Khandalavala]] saw Sher-Gil as obsessed with Gauguin to the extent that it partly "haunted her".<ref name=Mathur2011/> To them, her longing to return to India connected her to Gauguin's "sun-hotted joyous exuberant colours" and according to Archer, to Sher-Gil "India was Gauguin, and when at last she returned, India itself became Gauguin".<ref name=Mathur2011/> Bringing the issue of "race" to attention, philosopher [[Nalini Bhushan]] sees Sher-Gil as depicting the Indian part of herself, with the Tahitian representing the perfectly appearing non-European.<ref name=Alston2020/><ref name=Bhushan2011>{{cite book |last1=Bhushan |first1=Nalini |last2=Garfield |first2=Jay L. |title=Indian Philosophy in English: From Renaissance to Independence |date=2011 |publisher=Oxford University Press, USA |isbn=978-0-19-976926-1 |page=237 |chapter-url=https://books.google.com/books?id=6t591vHwWnAC&pg=PA237 |language=en |chapter=3. 2. Vivekananda: Anana Yoga (2015)}}</ref> However, in contrast to Sher-Gil's portrayal of herself as a Tahitian, Gauguin's Tahitians are more elaborately dressed, are decorated with flowers, and typically appear as seductive women on a tropical landscape.<ref name=UCLA>{{cite web |title=Behind Sher-Gil's 'Tahitian' |url=https://www.international.ucla.edu/southasia/article/113695#:~:text=Finally%2C%20Sher%2DGil%20left%20Paris,fact%2C%20her%20very%20last%20unfinished |website=www.international.ucla.edu |access-date=16 November 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231116115005/https://www.international.ucla.edu/southasia/article/113695 |archive-date=16 November 2023 |language=en}}</ref>

[[Saloni Mathur]], professor of Modern and Contemporary South Asian Art, gives an alternative take.<ref name=Mathur2011/> In her article "A Retake of Sher-Gil's Self-Portrait as Tahitian" (2011), she asks herself "What precisely was meant by Sher-Gil’s self-conscious self-placement into the body of a Tahitian nude?"<ref name=Mathur2011/> Her interpretation is that the painting "conceals a deep engagement with the strategies of self-portraiture and acts of masquerade undertaken by both Gauguin and [[Vincent van Gogh]] in the late 1880s".<ref name=Mathur2011/> Describing the image as "striking in her composure; she is resolutely female, self-possessed, and full of repose", Mathur proposes that Sher-Gil's self-portrait is not just a tribute to Gauguin or simply an example of [[neo-primitivism]].<ref name=Mathur2011/> According to her, the influence of Van Gogh has been underestimated, and she makes reference to Van Gogh's ''[[Portrait of Père Tanguy]]'', which similarly has Japanese figures in its background.<ref name=Mathur2011/><ref name=UCLA/> Who the shadowy figure behind Sher-Gil is unclear.<ref name=Haupt2016/><ref name=Harold2023>{{cite book |last1=Bhushan |first1=Nalini |last2=Mehrotra |first2=Arvind Krishna |editor1-last=Harold |editor1-first=James |title=The Oxford Handbook of Ethics and Art |date=2023 |publisher=Oxford University Press |isbn=978-0-19-753979-8 |pages=110–113 |chapter-url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ZCnPEAAAQBAJ&pg=PA110 |language=en |chapter=8. Art and ethics in India in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries}}</ref> Bhushan and Christine Haupt call the "mystifying male shadow" a "[[voyeur]]".<ref name=Alston2020/><ref name=Haupt2016/> Mathur postulates it could be a "symbol of the dominating influence of the two painters" Gauguin or Van Gogh, and her "own search for a place for herself within the creation of [[modernism|modernism's]] master discourse".<ref name=Zahra2022/><ref name=Mathur2011/> Haupt suggests that it might represent Sher-Gil's mental state; part of her bipolar personality.<ref name=Haupt2016/>

With reference to the slightly turned away depiction of Sher-Gil, Mathur relates this to Sher-Gil's turning towards India, as she longed to return there.<ref name=Haupt2016>{{cite book |last1=Haupt |first1=Christina |title=Amrita Sher-Gil and the representations of non-western female bodies |date=2016 |publisher=Grin |location=Norderstedt |isbn=978-3-6684-887-7-9 |pages=2–4}}</ref> She notes that the Indian art critic [[Geeta Kapur]] connects Sher-Gil with the artist [[Frida Kahlo]]; both representing "women in and through the experience of otherness", and therefore giving an alternative take of the traditional nude.<ref name=Mathur2011/>

[[Yashodhara Dalmia]], in her biography of Sher-Gil, calls the painting "Sher-Gil's most dramatic portrait", in which her smirk resonates with Rembrandt's last self-portrait of 1669.<ref name=Dalmia2013.98>Dalmia, p. 98</ref> In Sonal Khullar's view the painting "theatricalizes the relationship of French masters to the Orient" and "combines and confuses areas of the world: Oceania, the Orient, and the Occident".<ref name=Khullar2015.49/> According to [[D. Fairchild Ruggles]], in this painting, Sher-Gil "claims a history and culture for herself".<ref name=Ruggles2014>{{cite book |last1=Ruggles |first1=D.

==Challenges==
When Ayushman Bharat Yojana (Ayushman Card) began there were questions of how to reconcile its plans with other existing health development recommendations, such as from [[NITI Aayog]].<ref name="Hooda 2018">{{cite web|last1=Hooda|first1=Shailender Kumar|date=26 November 2018|title=With Inadequate Health Infrastructure, Can Ayushman Bharat Really Work?|url=https://thewire.in/health/with-inadequate-health-infrastructure-can-ayushman-bharat-really-work|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181127123949/https://thewire.in/health/with-inadequate-health-infrastructure-can-ayushman-bharat-really-work |archive-date=27 November 2018 |website=The Wire}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Ayushman Card |date=29 December 2023 |url=https://compass.rauias.com/current-affairs/ayushman-card/ |access-date=23 February 2024 |archive-date=4 January 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240104114310/https://compass.rauias.com/current-affairs/ayushman-card/ |url-status=live }}</ref> A major challenge of implementing a national health care scheme would be starting with infrastructure in need of development to be part of a modern national system.<ref name="Hooda 2018"/> While Ayushman Bharat Yojana seeks to provide excellent healthcare, [[India]] still has some basic healthcare challenges including relatively few doctors, more cases of infectious disease, and a national budget with a comparatively low central government investment in health care. Some of the problems lay outside the [[Ministry of Health and Family Welfare|Health Ministry]] such as urban development or transport.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Nirula |first1=SR |last2=Naik |first2=M |last3=Gupta |first3=SR |title=NHS vs Modicare: The Indian Healthcare v2.0.

The private hospitals report that they would be unable to offer their special services at the government low price, even with a government subsidy.<ref name="Porecha 2019" />

Under the Ayushman Bharat scheme, concerns about the misuse of insurance benefits have prompted authorities to take action against non-compliant hospitals, including suspending or de-empaneling them. Such practices not only strain the scheme's resources but also compromise patient trust and the integrity of the healthcare system. To address these issues, authorities have implemented measures against hospitals involved in these malpractices, including suspending or de-empaneling them from the scheme.

There has been misuse of the Ayushman Bharat scheme by private hospitals through submission of fake medical bills. Under the Scheme, surgeries have been claimed to be performed on persons who had been discharged long ago and [[Kidney dialysis|dialysis]] has been shown as performed at hospitals not having kidney transplant facility.<ref>{{cite news |title=Ayushman Bharat: Hospitals use Bizarre Ways to Siphon Off Public Funds |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/under-ayushman-bharat-how-hospitals-use-bizarre-ways-to-siphon-off-public-funds/articleshow/70654696.cms |access-date=18 August 2019 |work=The Times of India |date=15 August 2019 |archive-date=17 August 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190817012250/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/under-ayushman-bharat-how-hospitals-use-bizarre-ways-to-siphon-off-public-funds/articleshow/70654696.cms |url-status=live }}</ref> There are at least 697 fake cases in [[Uttarakhand]] State alone, where fine of {{INRConvert|1|c|lk=on|year=2021}} has been imposed on hospitals for frauds under the Scheme.<ref>{{cite news |title=Hospitals Penalised for Irregularities in Ayushman Bharat Scheme |url=https://www.thehindubusinessline.com/news/national/uttarakhand-hospitals-to-be-penalised-over-rs-1-cr-for-irregularities-in-ayushman-bharat-scheme/article28133763.ece |access-date=18 August 2019 |publisher=Hindu Business Line |date=25 June 2019 |archive-date=18 August 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190818101354/https://www.thehindubusinessline.com/news/national/uttarakhand-hospitals-to-be-penalised-over-rs-1-cr-for-irregularities-in-ayushman-bharat-scheme/article28133763.ece |url-status=live }}</ref> Initial analysis of high-value claims under PM-JAY has revealed that a relatively small number of districts and hospitals account for a high number of these, and some hint of an anti-women bias, with male patients getting more coverage.

== Plot ==
Roli and Simar are two sisters in Vrindavan, and Siddhant and Prem are two brothers in Delhi, belonging from the affulent and traditional Bharadwaj family. Simar aspires to be a dancer. Her marriage is fixed with Prem Bharadwaj. On the wedding day, Simar is blackmailed by Hichki to participate in a dance competition, and Roli is forced to marry Prem in her sister's place. After some time, Prem tells the whole family the truth that he is married to Roli. Mata ji then decides that Prem will remarry Roli in front of Simar. This creates problems as Simar and Prem start loving each other. Prem's brother, Siddhant, marries Roli, so that Prem and Simar can stay together. Eventually, the Bhardwaj family finally accepts Simar and Roli as their daughters-in-law. Mata ji then worries that Simar and Roli will rule the house instead of her, so Mata ji decides that she will do something to stop them from doing the housework. Mata ji puts napthalene balls in Sujata's drink so she can accuse Simar and Roli of being so careless and stop them doing the housework. She then tries to take help from her sister Manoranjan to create differences between Simar and Roli. Uma and Pari is also attempting to Sabotage the sisters by replacing Rasgullas with Eggs, putting Chilli Powder in Roli's juice, and trying to ruin Simar's dance by placing glass shards on the floor. Eventually Manoranjan is video recorded while she was adding ajwain to Mataji's drink, who was allergic to ajwain. Mataji then announces a contest between the daughters-in-law, and Simar and Roli emerge victorious. Simar then suspects Prem of cheating on her, but it turns out he was trapping the girl, Anisha to give up the photos she had with his elder brother Shailendra, which she was using to blackmail him to show his wife Pari. However, she gets run over by a car while escaping from the police.

Khushi, who wants revenge for her sister's death, Anisha, marries Siddhant and Prem's cousin, Sankalp. Roli tries to expose the truth about Khushi but fails every time. Only Manoranjan believes Khushi is lying. Simar tells Roli to leave the house because everyone in the family believes that Roli is lying. Simar finds out that Khushi sold all her jewellery and replaced them with fake gold jewellery. Khushi tells her boyfriend Veeru to unlock the lock and steal the fake gold jewellery. Simar sees this and tries to snatch the bag from Veeru but falls down the stairs. As a result of this, Simar has a miscarriage. Khushi becomes the surrogate mother of Prem and Simar's child and blackmails Simar to sign the property papers. At Khushi's birthday party, Khushi is exposed about her reality to the whole family and was arrested by the police but Mata Ji took back the case and is spared by the police. Khushi gives birth to their daughter, Anjali, and grabs Bharadwajs' property with her lover, Veeru. Roli seduces Veeru and manages to retrieve the property papers. Enraged, Veeru shoots Simar, but she survives from coma and later Veeru kidnaps Roli and drives her off the cliff along with himself. Meanwhile, Naina has a crush on Siddhant and she pretends to be pregnant with his child after drugging him at a party. Simar, Sujata, Rajendra, Mausiji, Mataji and other family members reprimand Siddhant for having cheated on Roli. However, Prem proves his brother's innocence. Roli has lost all her memory and eventually Veeru makes her believe her name is Vidya and Veeru, as Vikram, is her husband. However, Simar finds out Roli and makes her regain her memories. Then Veeru shoots Roli and she is presumed dead. A doppelganger of Roli, Jhumki, is hired to return the property to the Bharadwaj family's name. They manage to expel Khushi and Veeru from the house. Veeru blackmails Jhumki by kidnapping her brother to kill Simar, but Jhumki tries to save her secretly every time. Finally, Jhumki is able to get back her brother with the help of police in a mysterious palace in the Bharadwaj name. Simar also discovers Roli alive, who was tortured and imprisoned in the palace.

Jhanvi is shown to be the kidnapper of Roli. It gets revealed that Jhanvi's father, Shakti, and Rajendra were business partners. But, Shakti attempted to rape Sujata but was killed by Mataji in the process, after which, Jhanvi's grandmother and Jhanvi ran away, and Shakti's wife committed suicide. Prem turns out to be Shakti's son later adopted by Rajendra and Sujata. He is now angered by the truth being hidden from him for 20 years, and initially sides with Jahnvi and her grandmother, Shobha. However, Shobha is arrested and she confesses that she had replaced her own stillbirth grandchild with Jhanvi, and she is actually Sujata's daughter. Hearing this, Jhanvi drops her gun she was pointing to Sujata, and is shocked. Then Shakti is discovered to be alive and deceiving the family along with Shobha to achieve the property. Both are arrested and Jhanvi and Prem are welcomed back into the family. Jhnavi then has to face a rich brat, Shaurya Singhania, who is injured and treat him in the hospital as she worked as a nurse there. Pari gives birth to a son called Aarav, and Pari's mother Aachla advises Pari to control the house as she is the mother of a boy now. She also shames Simar to be intent on taking away Pari's son from her as she is jealous with having just a daughter. Later on, Shaurya makes Jhanvi fell for him and marries her in temple only to take revenge of one slap. Jhanvi hides her marriage from the family, but it was not lasted so long as Shaurya spill the beans to Simar. Simar on the way home to confront Jhanvi, meanwhile Roli finds a nuptial chain in Jhanvi's cupboard. Then Jhanvi narrated the whole story to the sisters and they console her. Simar and Roli decided to speak to Meghna (Shaurya's sister) who is a social worker as they thought she could understand them but all of sudden Meghna backlashes them and taken side of Shaurya. As the tension bothers the sisters and Jhanvi, Manoranjan guessed something was fishy and vow to find it out. Later she comes to knew about the entire game Shaurya played with Jhanvi. Now it is a team of four who were out to destroy the Sighania's. Manoranjan came up with a great plan of using Roli as main lead of their plan as she was the only one who the both Singhania brother and sister had not met. They choose a name Sonia Oberoi a business women who still did not appear in front of social media. Roli in disguise meet Meghna as Sonia Oberoi. In a small time Roli inspires Meghna according to their plan. Also manoranjan joins Roli as her Personal assistant Tina. Meghna kept the marriage proposal of Shaurya infront of Sonia Oberoi aka Roli. As per the plan the Roli should be faking the marriage with Shaurya and exposes his misdeeds infront of the media. On the day of wedding Jhanvi locks Roli in the room and marries Shaurya. The Bhardwaj family gatecrashes the wedding before final rites but shockingly Jhanvi wants to give Shaurya a second chance. Later Shaurya starts living in Bhardwaj house saying her sister ousted him from the house. While everyone thought Shaurya has changed, Roli gets under an attack continuously by an unknown stranger. To the surprise it was none other than Shaurya who seeks vengeance from Roli as she cheated on them. Day by day the Shaurya keeps blackmailing the sisters and making the Bhardwaj family against them. As Roli gets petrified by the actions of Shaurya, Simar makes a challenge to Shaurya that she will expose him infront of family within 48 hours. Next day Simar and Roli fools Shaurya exposing him infront of Jhanvi. Unable to bear the defeat, Shaurya takes Roli hostage and escapes. Afterwards to rescue Roli from Shaurya, Jhanvi shoots her husband to the death on the bed. Meghna vows to revenge her brother, Shaurya. Jhanvi attempts suicide in the depression of shooting Shaurya but the family rescues her. To make her erase the bitter moments of her life Mataji decided to plan a trip to Kul Devi temple. Taking the advantage of the family's absence Meghna made a special room in the Bharadwaj house and kidnapped the Bharadwaj family when they were coming from Kul Devi temple. Simar and Roli were in Vrindavan when this happened because Meghna prank call Simar saying that her mother is unwell and is admitted in hospital so Simar and Roli went to Vrindavan. When Simar and Roli arrived in Bharadwaj house they found that the house is empty. They begin to worry. The next morning, Simar and Roli found that Meghna kidnapped the whole Bharadwaj family, and Meghna said if they want the whole family safe, they have to play 4 tasks. Initially they did not believe her, but the evil Meghna kept that as the first task to speak with their family. In the first task the sisters to run barefeet in the mid-afternoon for over two kilometers and reach the town in 30 minutes and find a clue of a phone number and dial the family. While the task time starts on the family wakes up and find themselves in a dark room with no exit. Later, Simar and Roli successfully completes the first task by speaking with the family and also confirms that Meghna is the one who kidnapped them. After returning house completing the first task, Meghna asks them to be ready for the next task by tomorrow also opens a Two sided mirror in which the half was from bharadwaj house and the other is to the room Meghna built to kidnap the family. The whole family comes to know that they are being kept in their own house. On next day Meghna comes up with the second task. In this task Simar and Roli needs to prepare food for 100 people and serve them within two hours because only then Meghna provides foof to the family. After numerous hurdles they manage to complete the task. Suddenly Mataji falls sick and need medicines. Meghna taking advantage of the situation designs the third task to save Mataji;s life. In this task Simar and Roli needs to hold the burning lamp in their hands for 24 hours without any break. They also completes this task given my Meghna and sends medicine to Mataji. In between all these tasks Sonia Oberoi trys to helps them and Meghna finds a letter and gives the final task to Simar and Roli to save their family and also mentions that if they fail the whole family will be dead. She Simar and Roli begin to realise where Meghna hid the Bharadwaj family so both sisters broke the 2-way mirror that Meghna put on so the Bharadwaj family can see how SimarRoli are suffering. Simar and Roli finally saved the Bharadwaj family, and Meghna was then arrested. Sonia Oberoi also contributed to helping Simar and Roli to find the Bharadwaj family.

Jhanvi then marries Dr. Anurag, but Buaji rejects the wedding on grounds of Jhanvi being a widow and pregnant with another man's child. There is a contest of Bahu No 1 held, where Simar partners Jhanvi, and Roli is forced to partner Bhakti Jaiswal, who had a childhood crush on Dr. Anurag. Roli is kidnapped by a politician, Jwala Devi, who had previously tried to capture the lands in the neighbourhood. Simar and Roli, disguised as NRIs, made Jwala Devi sign on the papers and got back the land. Jwala Devi discovers that her son has gone made due to a heartbreak by Jhumki, Roli's doppleganger, who is mistaken to be Roli. She escapes Jwala Devi's captivity and unintentionally runs over a woman named Sunaina, who dies. Sunaina's husband, Vikrant Mehta, kidnaps Simar and asks Simar to live with them as Sunaina, faking her death. Simar too agrees to save Roli from going to jail for Sunaina's death.

===2 years later===
Simar now lives as Sunaina, and raises Vikrant's daughter, Sanjana, while Roli takes care of Anjali. Simar returns to Bharadwajs' after meeting her sister coincidentally at the summer camp and meets Sunaina's spirit, who seeks vengeance on the Mehtas', who were behind her death. Roli and Siddhant also join Simar. Kartik, Vikrant's brother, ran a racket of selling body organs illegally, and when Sunaina apparently discovered it, Baa and Karthik had killed her. Siddhant tries to trap Kartik in the guise of a CBI officer, but gets caught and kidnapped by Baa. Simar and Roli collectively provides evidence to get Baa and Kartik arrested. Surbhi, Simar's husband Prem's fiance, comes to know that Simar is Simar and not Sunaina Mehta, and she tells this to the family. The family is furious and Prem rejects Simar, and throws her out of his house. Sunaina's spirit is ruling over Simar's body and tries to seduce Vikrant. Eventually, Sunaina is banished by rituals, but the relationship between Siddhant and Prem worsens as Siddhant supports Simar. There is a court case and Simar tearfully agrees to divorce Prem when he refuses to believe her story of Sunaina's spirit. Later, Simar is proven innocent and reunites with Prem and the rest of her family. Vikrant tries to murder Prem for his love for Simar but is eventually jailed after her kidnapping. Sanjana is adopted by Simar and Prem.

Later, the story comes to revolve around Simar, Roli, Prem and Siddhant and how they protect the Bharadwaj house from some [[supernatural]] creatures who want to destroy the Bhardwaj family. These [[supernatural]] creatures include the [[ichchhadhari naagin|shapeshifting female serpent]] Maya who fakes to be Roli and tries to avenge her lover's death because of Vikrant, Dayans Mohini and Indravati who want to awaken a powerful dark entity from the underworld, Patali Devi. Patali [[Devi]] Gayatri is awakened and takes over Simar's body but Simar vanquishes her in her own realm. Then come the ghosts Maalti, Madhavi and Chhoti Dulhan, [[Shaitan]] ([[Kaal]]), [[Moon]] Jewel Princess Chandramani and another two witches Mahamaya and Kamya. While defeating Patali [[Devi]] and Shaitan, Simar's life becomes endangered. Roli sacrifices her life to save Simar. After Roli's sad demise, Siddhant becomes depressed and moves abroad. The Chandramani comes to life and wipes out the Bharadwaj family's memories but Simar makes them remember the truth again. Due to Chandramani's notorious plan to get rid of Simar so her lost powers are regained from Siddhant, she makes Simar search the Chandrakant in a jungle where Simar faces a curse from a Saint Baba to reincarnate as a housefly. Simultaneously, Prerna and Mataji reveal the truth of Fake Simar residing in the house and save Simar on time back as a human leading to the end of Chandrakatha. After the gem Chandramani being buried at a misunderstood time by Simar, Mahamaya steals it so the [[Churel|Chudail]]s' deity [[Kaal]] regains his powers and returns to the world. Mahamaya and Kamya (who resides inside the Bharadwaj house as Prem's childhood mate to assist her mother) casts a spell on Simar that impregnates her with a child possessing evil powers. Simar becomes aware of this mysterious plan and soon witnesses Kamya's real vintage. The family learns of this, too. Simar and Prem have a son, Piyush, who is actually an incarnation of Kaal. Being in doubt of the baby's spookiness and dark powers, the family asks Simar to donate the child. Simar refuses and leaves her in-laws with Piyush.

===16 years later===
Simar is now separated from Prem and the rest of her family. Simar and Piyush eventually return to the Bharadwaj house and reunite with their family. Anjali, brought up by Khushi, has grown up to be a spoilt fashionista and blames Simar for abandoning her. Simar and Prem together help their children in their lives. Anjali marries Vikram Agarwal and Piyush marries his best friend, Roshni Kapoor. Anjali accepts Simar as her Mother. On Piyush's 25th birthday, he turned into a kaal and started to attack the Bharadwaj family. His action caused the death of Roshni's father. Vikram marries Tanvi, divorcing Anjali. Sanjana returns and is about to marry her college friend, Sameer. Anjali discovers that Sameer conspires against the Bharadwajs bacause of an old rivalry and marries him to spare herself from the same fate. Sameer turns her against her family and takes over the property. Sanjana marries him to make the Bharadwajs regain their wealth. Anjali falls into a coma after being shot by Simar.

Sameer's mother, Bhairavi, is revealed to have shot Anjali. She seeks revenge for her husband's death caused by Prem but turns out she had killed him herself. Simar rescues Prem from Bhairavi's clutches and he returns to his family. Sameer starts to relaise that his mother is wrong and falls in love with Sanjana. Bhairavi cannot tolerate that Simar and Sanjana have turned her son against her so she sets out to seek vengeance. She turns into a ''daayan'', absorbing supernatural powers and kills Simar on the first day of the holy navratri by pushing her off a cliff. Mother [[Goddess]] [[Durga]], deeply worshipped by the Bharadwaj family, enters their household in the form of Simar to destroy Bhairavi and bring Simar back to life. The new Simar destorys Bhairavi's evil powers and kills her ally, Mahish Baba. The real Simar also is resuurected who tells eevryone Bhiravi's truth and how she tried to murder her and Bhairavi is sent to the prison. Seeing his mother's true and wicked nature, Sameer repents for his mistakes and the Bharadwajs forgive him, accepting him into the family. Roshni is shot to death by Aliya, who wants revenge for her father's death. Piyush turns mad due to Roshni's demise and goes missing.

=== 6 months later ===
Pari now rules the Bharadwaj family. Simar brings Piyush back with Avni and her mother, Hema, who took care of him. Piyush behaves like a child and likes Avni. Turns out Avni and Hema are Bhairavi's pawns to drift a mentally vulnerable Piyush away from Simar and his family so that Bhairavi gets revenge from Simar for snatching her son. Bhairavi returns from jail and pretends to have reformed, and Sanjana miscarries because of her secret plot. Sammer and Sanjana clash and have misunderstandings. Sanjana and Simar connect the dots and discover that Bhairavi has not changed at all and is still conspiring against the family. They try to stop Avni and Piyush's marriage but get captured by Bhairavi's men. They reach the house disguised as waiters and expose Avni, Hema and Bhairavi. Bhairavi holds the Bharadwajs hostage and sets a bomb on Simar. Avni has a change of hart and falls in love with Piyush and wants to help the Bharadwajs against Bhairavi. Because of her intervention, Bhairavi is cornered and Simar is set free from the bomb. Bhairavi fires her gun and kills Hema and the sounds of gunshots tirggers the memories of Roshni's death in Piyush and he regains his memory at last.

In the end, Simar kills Bhairavi with a trident, establishing her role as her family's ultimate protector. Piyush marries Avni. The Bharadwajs worship the Mother [[Goddess]] and celebrate their victory and togetherness. Pari apologises to Simar for her past mistakes. Prem misses Siddhant and Simar misses Roli, and Nirmala says that the Bharadwaj family is not only a family but a thought. With this, the show ends on a happy note.

==Reception==
Bobby Talk Cinema says "Directed by Wilson Louis, its indeed a worth praising effort inspired from an actual incident of 1999 and its really good to see the writer-director choosing this thoughtful, emotional subject moving much ahead than the usual ‘attention-seeking’ plots often seen in the world of short films.

'''Cecil Earle Tyndale-Biscoe''' (9 February 1863 – 1 August 1949) was a British [[missionary]] and [[educationist]], who worked in [[Kashmir]] where he established the famous [[Tyndale Biscoe School]].

==Life==
Biscoe was born at [[Holton, Oxfordshire|Holton]] near [[Oxford]], England, into a land-owning family, the son of William Earle Biscoe and his wife Elizabeth Carey Sandeman.<ref name=peerage>[http://thepeerage.com/p32058.htm#i320580 the Peerage.com]</ref> He was educated at [[Bradfield College]], and then [[Jesus College, Cambridge]].<ref>{{acad|id=BSCW882CE|name=Biscoe <nowiki>[post Tyndale-Biscoe]</nowiki>, Cecil Earle}}</ref> At university he [[Coxswain (rowing)|coxed]] the winning [[Cambridge University Boat Club|Cambridge]] crew in the 1884 [[Boat Race]]. In 1885 he coxed the winning [[Jesus College Boat Club (Cambridge)|Jesus College]] crew in the [[Grand Challenge Cup]] at [[Henley Royal Regatta]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.ebooksread.com/authors-eng/r-c-rudolf-chambers-lehmann/the-complete-oarsman-hci/page-26-the-complete-oarsman-hci.shtml |title=R C Lehmann ''The Complete Oarsman'' |access-date=3 May 2010 |archive-date=30 September 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110930233842/http://www.ebooksread.com/authors-eng/r-c-rudolf-chambers-lehmann/the-complete-oarsman-hci/page-26-the-complete-oarsman-hci.shtml |url-status=dead }}</ref> After being awarded a [[Bachelor of Arts|BA]], he was ordained as a priest of the [[Church of England]]. After a short time working in London's [[Whitechapel|East End]], in 1890 Tyndale-Biscoe was appointed to a missionary school in Kashmir by the [[Church Missionary Society]].<ref name="ODNB-36604">{{cite encyclopedia |last=Studdert-Kennedy |first=Gerald |encyclopedia=[[Oxford Dictionary of National Biography]] |title=Biscoe, Cecil Earle Tyndale- (1863–1949) |url=http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/36604 |accessdate=28 May 2012 |edition=online |year=2004 |publisher=[[Oxford University Press]] |location=Oxford |doi=10.1093/ref:odnb/36604|url-access=subscription }} {{subscription required}}</ref>

[[file:Irene Petrie book has this of holton cottage.jpg|thumb|left|Holton Cottage in Kashmir]]
Tyndale-Biscoe married Blanche Violet Burges, daughter of Reverend Richard B. Burges, on 2 November 1891 and had four children.<ref name=peerage/> When [[Irene Petrie]] joined the mission she stayed with them at Holton Cottage.<ref>Jeffrey Cox, 'Petrie, Irene Eleanora Verita (1864–1897)', Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/49153, accessed 18 June 2017]</ref>

In the late 19th century, Kashmir was a [[princely state]] made up of a [[Muslim]] majority ruled by a [[Maharaja]] and his [[Hindu]] minority. The Maharaja often utilized the services of British and European experts, though Kashmir was an independent kingdom. Seeing the squalid conditions and [[caste system]] as a serious problem, Tyndale-Biscoe aimed to use his own [[Christian values]] and [[Western world|western]] civic ideals to improve Kashmiri society. Although he did not actively pursue conversions as much as his missionary backers would have liked, Tyndale-Biscoe was a convinced [[imperialist]] and supporter of the [[India Defence League]].<ref name="ODNB-36604" />

Tyndale-Biscoe's educational philosophy was one in which conspicuous intellect, or "cleverness", was valued less than the acquisition of more profound attributes and abilities. His schooling placed emphasis on physical activities – [[boxing]], [[boating]], [[Association football|football]] – which would stimulate senses of [[courage]], [[masculinity]] and [[physical fitness]]. The pupils were also engaged in civic duties, such as street-cleaning, and in helping deal with [[flooding]] and [[cholera]]. Enforcing participation in team sports and activities in a highly socially stratified culture had significance beyond the replication of Tyndale-Biscoe's [[English public school]] educational experience.

By his later years, Tyndale-Biscoe had founded six schools with 1,800 students. In 1912 he received the [[Kaisar-I-Hind Medal]], and an additional bar in 1929. After [[Partition of India|Indian independence]], he left for what was then known as [[Southern Rhodesia]], where he died in 1949.

'''Harshavarman''' was a [[Mlechchha dynasty]] king of [[Kamarupa]].

==History==
Following the reign of Vajrstamba, a copper plate inscription mentions Harsha:

{{blockquote|text=The king whose brother exceeded all kings (in valour) and was regarded as the only hero by his enemies and who being unequally conditioned gave up neither valour nor his chariot and won heaven thereby.}}

Harshavarman was described as the heroic brother of the ruler of Kamarupa, Pralambha. Harshavarman left Kamarupa proper and lived in Gauda, which was part of Kamarupa at the time. The inscription of Jayadeva which mentions "Harshadeva" had been attributed to him as the ruler of Gauda, Udra, Kalinga and Kosala. He was the father-in-law of Jayadeva II. Jayadeva was called the daughter's son of the ruler of Maghada, Adityasena. As a result, Harshavarman is assumed to rule around 825 AD following the death of Adityasena.{{sfn|Vasu|1922|p=156}}

Harshavarman's rule came to an end when Yasovarman, the king of Kanauj, declared war against him. Harshavarman was killed in battle as a result.{{sfn|Vasu|1922|p=157}} The court poet of Yasovarman, named Vakapti, left a poem known as ''Gauda-vaho'' (overthrow of Gauda), but did not mention Harshavarman's name in it.{{sfn|Baruah|1933|p=114}} The death of Harshavarman saw anarchy in Bengal, taking advantage of the absence of strong rulers.{{sfn|Baruah|1933|p=118}}

===Life===
Ali Quli Khan Istajlu was a member of the [[Turkoman (ethnonym)|Turkoman]] Ustajlu tribe, and was the ''safarchi'' (table-attendant) of [[Ismail II]], the third [[Safavid dynasty|Safavid]] king (''[[shah]]'') of [[Safavid Iran|Iran]] (1576–78).{{sfn|Eraly|2000|page=272}} After the Shah's death, Ali Quli came to [[Kandahar]], and at [[Multan]] he met [[Abdul Rahim Khan-i-Khanan]] who made him a royal employee while in the field.

Later, on Khan-i-Khanan's recommendation, Ali Quli received a mansab, [[Thatta]] (in present-day Pakistan). During the following years he rendered distinguished services to [[Akbar]], and moved to the royal courts at [[Lahore]].<ref>History of Begum Nur Jahan, by Sugam Anand, 1992, Radha Publications, Queens. {{ISBN|81-85484-39-2}}. Page 34-36.</ref>

Soon after his arrival at the royal courts in 1594, [[Ain-e-Akbari]] suggests, Akbar ordered his marriage to the seventeen-year-old [[Mehrunissa]] (the future Empress Nur Jahan), daughter of [[Mirza Ghias Beg]].<ref name=akbar/><ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=0Rm9MC4DDrcC&dq=Ali+Quli+Sher+Afghan+Khan&pg=PA237 Nur Jahan] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230729192226/https://books.google.com/books?id=0Rm9MC4DDrcC&dq=Ali+Quli+Sher+Afghan+Khan&pg=PA237 |date=29 July 2023 }} Medieval India: From Sultanat to the Mughals Part – II, by Satish Chandra, 2000, Har Anand Publications. {{ISBN|81-241-1066-2}}. Page 237.</ref> Ghias’s wife had access to the royal harem, and on her visits there she was often accompanied by Mehrunissa. There [[Jahangir|Prince Salim]] reportedly saw her and fell in love with her, and to avoid scandal, Akbar quickly married her to Ali Quli.<ref name=akbar/> Some historians suggest that when Prince Salim saw her, she was already engaged to be married to Ali Quli, and thus the prince couldn't marry her on that account.{{citation needed|date=December 2011}}

When Prince Salim revolted against Akbar, Ali Quli sided with Akbar against the prince, but when Salim finally ascended to the Mughal throne in 1605 and took the name Jahangir, he pardoned Ali Quli along with all those who favoured Akbar instead of him. Ali Quli was made a [[jagir]]dar and received the region of [[Bardhaman]] in West Bengal as his domain.

===Death===
[[File:Tomb of Sher Afgan Khan 05.jpg|thumb|Tomb of Sher Afghan Khan and Qutbuddin in Bahram Saqqa mosque complex]]
Shaikh Khubu, Qutbuddin Khan Koka, (Khan-i-Chishti), was the foster-brother of Jahangir, as his mother was a daughter of Shaikh Salim. When Jahangir ascended the throne of Mughal Empire in 1605, Qutbuddin was made the ''subedar'' (Governor) of Bengal, by replacing Raja Man Singh. Meanwhile, Sher Afghan Ali Quli Istajlu was tahvildar of Bardhaman, also in the province of [[Bengal]]. Numerous Mansabs and titles were bestowed on his son Sheikh Farid who eventually became the Governor of [[Budaun]]. His descendants still live in a fort (now in ruins) in [[Sheikhupur, Badaun|Sheikhupur, Budaun]].

In 1607, Qutbuddin Khan Koka was instructed to send Sher Afghan Khan to the court as he was accused of negligence and siding with Afghan rebels and transferred. Sher Afghan Khan refused to obey. Seeing this, Qutbuddin started off for Bardhaman, while he sent Ghiasa, the son of his sister, in advance to pacify Sher Afghan and bring him to the court. So upon his arrival on 30 May 1607, Sher Afghan duly went to meet him, accompanied by two men. At that moment Qutb signalled his men to arrest Sher Afghan, who stepped forward in alarm and attacked Qutbuddin sensing treachery. Qutbuddin was fatally wounded, and seeing this, his men surrounded Sher Afghan and killed him instantly.<ref>[http://persian.packhum.org/persian/main?url=pf%3Ffile%3D00702015%26ct%3D298%26rqs%3D712%26rqs%3D719%26rqs%3D720 Shaikh Khubu, ''Qutbuddin Khan i Chishti'' of Fatehpur Sikri] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160305012748/http://persian.packhum.org/persian/main?url=pf%3Ffile%3D00702015%26ct%3D298%26rqs%3D712%26rqs%3D719%26rqs%3D720 |date=5 March 2016 }} [[Ain-i-Akbari]], by [[Abu'l-Fazl ibn Mubarak|Abul Fazl]], tr. H. Blochmann, The Asiatic Society of Bengal., Calcutta, 1873. Volume I, chapt. 299.</ref>

Qutbuddin, who was fatally wounded, died later in the night. This caused much grief to Jahangir as he mentions in his memoirs, [[Tuzk-e-Jahangiri]], where he also mentions his elation at the death of Ali Quli and hopes that "the blackfaced wretch will forever remain in hell".<ref name="jahangir">[http://persian.packhum.org/persian/main?url=pf%3Ffile%3D11001081%26ct%3D26%26rqs%3D425%26rqs%3D426%26rqs%3D448%26rqs%3D449%26rqs%3D691%26rqs%3D692 Ali Quli Istajlu] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160305012819/http://persian.packhum.org/persian/main?url=pf%3Ffile%3D11001081%26ct%3D26%26rqs%3D425%26rqs%3D426%26rqs%3D448%26rqs%3D449%26rqs%3D691%26rqs%3D692|date=5 March 2016}} [[Tuzuk-i-Jahangiri]], The Memoirs of Jahangir (Rogers), Volume 1, chapt. 27.</ref>

The claim that Ali Quli was killed because the emperor coveted his wife has been discounted by many later historians, who cite the fact that if Jahangir had had any such intentions, he wouldn't have bestowed upon Ali Quli the title Sher Afghan, or pardoned him after he ascended the throne, or given him Bardhaman.<ref name=akbar/><ref name=jaffar>[https://archive.org/stream/mughalempirefrom032770mbp/mughalempirefrom032770mbp_djvu.txt Ali Quli Istajlu] The Mughal Empire: From Babar to Aurangzeb, by S. M. Jaffar, London, 1936, p. 195-196, marriage and thereafter. P. 197-198, death controversy.</ref>

Another historical writer, [[Khafi Khan]], mentions another tale about Ali Quli's death, which is said to have been related by Nur Jahan's mother. According to her, Sher Aghan did not die immediately when he was attacked by Qutbuddin's men, but wounded as he was, he managed to get to the door of his house with the intention of killing his wife, whom he did not wish to fall into the emperor's hands. But her mother would not let him enter, and told him to mind his wounds, especially as Mehrunissa had committed suicide by throwing herself into a well. "Having heard the sad news, Sher Afghan went to the heavenly mansions." Historians do not credit this tale, however.<ref name=jaffar/>

His tomb is situated within the shrine complex of the poet Bahram Saqqa, in the present day city of Bardhaman in West Bengal, next to the tomb of Qutbuddin.<ref>The Journal of the United Service Institution of India, by United Service Institution of India, 1872, Page 171. "..the unusual story behind the adjacent tombs of Sher Afghan and Qutb-ud-din at Bardhaman ..."</ref>

==Nur Jahan's remarriage==

After Ali Quli's death, his wife [[Mehrunissa]], was sent to the royal harem, where she spent next four years as ''lady-in-waiting'' to [[Ruqaiya Sultan Begum]]. As the story progresses, in March 1611, during the New Year Day [[Nauroz]] celebrations, Prince Salim happened to see Mehrunissa at Meena Bazar [[Agra]] and immediately proposed her for marriage but actually their connection was even before the marriage of Nurjahan and Ali Quli.
Mehrunissa and Prince Salim were married two months later, on 25 May 1611, which made her Jahangir's twentieth wife as Nur Mahal, 'Light of the castle', and in 1616, she was given the title [[Nur Jahan]], 'the Light of the World'. After marrying Jahangir, Nur Jahan slowly gathered the all powers of the government in her hands and became the active and dominant force behind the Mughal throne.<ref>[http://persian.packhum.org/persian/main?url=pf%3Ffile%3D80201016%26ct%3D150%26rqs%3D189 ''The Marriage of Jahángír with Núr Jahán''] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160305021520/http://persian.packhum.org/persian/main?url=pf%3Ffile%3D80201016%26ct%3D150%26rqs%3D189 |date=5 March 2016 }} The History of India, Volume 6, chpt. 151.</ref>

Ali Quli's daughter, [[Mihr-un-nissa Begum]], was married to [[Prince Shahryar]], Jahangir's fifth son in 1620. Shahryar went on to briefly occupy the Mughal throne at Lahore, under the manoeuvring of Nur Jahan, after the death of Jahangir on 27 October 1627. He was later captured by Mughal forces led by [[Asaf Khan IV|Asaf Khan]], and − first blinded by the orders of [[Dawar|Prince Dawar]] − was later executed by Asaf Khan, at the order of [[Shah Jahan]], who finally ascended the Mughal throne after executing all his remaining brothers. After [[Qutubuddin Koka]]'s and Sher Afghan Khan's death, the next subedar of Bengal was Jahāngīr Qulī Beg or [[Jahāngīr Qulī Khān]] (1607–1608) and when he died, [[Islam Khan I|Islam Khan]] (June 1608–died August 1613) was made the subhadar of bengal.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://tanmoy.tripod.com/bengal/mughal.html |title=Bengal under Mughals |access-date=23 June 2008 |archive-date=15 May 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080515105214/http://tanmoy.tripod.com/bengal/mughal.html |url-status=live }}</ref>
