He would swim for hours in the crocodile infested Sharmishtha lake. In the centre of the lake was an old temple on which fluttered a flag. On a certain day each year, the flag had to be changed. One day, there was a terrible downpour of rain. There was heavy flooding. That was the designated day to change the temple flag. None other than, the twelve year old little Narendra came forward and bravely said, “I will change the temple flag.” The elders of the village tried to dissuade him, but Narendra did not budge. He jumped into the lake, swam towards the temple, changed the flag and with the same speed swam back to the shore. The villagers were all praises for Narendra and patted him.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3490610891147010247-1834867150005415910?l=ameyainspiringbooks.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>ameya prakashanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04307269194566159970noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490610891147010247.post-60091679267321392832008-08-16T00:23:00.000-07:002008-08-16T00:28:00.231-07:00Marathi edition of the book "GANGA" will be released on 23rd august 2008 at CROSSWORD Pune.<br />(Author:Julian Crandall Hollick,Transalated by:Prakash Akolkar)<br /> The book combines travelogue,science and history and is a fascinating portait of a river and a culture.<br />The central theme of the book is "Save GANGA..."<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3490610891147010247-6009167926732139283?l=ameyainspiringbooks.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>ameya prakashanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04307269194566159970noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490610891147010247.post-16775067363042631382008-05-11T23:32:00.000-07:002008-12-09T20:12:35.482-08:00<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gR0--4UckhE/SCfs6SODdPI/AAAAAAAAAN0/L1qQFw7UHEw/s1600-h/hema-blog-image.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5199384780889879794" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gR0--4UckhE/SCfs6SODdPI/AAAAAAAAAN0/L1qQFw7UHEw/s320/hema-blog-image.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>The authorized biography of 'DreamGirl' Hema Malini is soon being published in <em>Marathi</em> under the title '<strong>Hema Malini - Adhikrut Jeevankatha'</strong> by Pune-based Ameya Prakashan.<br /><br />Renowned film jounalist and critic, Bhawana Somayya has written the biography through conversations with Hema Malini, and covers her childhood, the efforts taken by her parents to make her a highly skilled danseuse, her entry on the large screen, her whole career, her controversial marriage to actor Dharmendra and her dedication to the field of dance.
