11th October – is Ashwin maas, Shukla Paksha, Pratipada; the date when the devotes do Ghatasthapana, and Sharadiya Navratri begins. It is the period when people in Western India begin their evenings, in Sarvajanik Mandals, with daily aarthis to Ambe Mata & follow them up with Garba & Dandiya. Nine nights of dancing and revelry. This is special for Gujarat & Maharashtra.

In many parts of North India, the nine day festival has revelry with staging of The Ram-Leela as their integral part. Ram Leela means story of Lord Rama complete with Ram-Ravana Yudh (war) and Ravan Vadh happening on the ninth day.

6th October is the birthdate a very handsome talented actor who could have fallen in the category of “SUPERSTAR” too, if he had not just given it all up to follow his spiritual Guru just as his career was on the upswing. He was an actor who could dance without making the audience feel that he was uncomfortable, I have seen him match steps with HEMA MALINI & Kalpana Iyer in the 1980s. He was introduced into Hindi films in Sunil Dutt’s ‘Man Ka Meet’ in a supporting role in 1968. He played supporting characters to Rajesh Khanna, Shammi Kapoor, Jeetendra, Dharmendra, Manoj Kumar etc. in his initial films. He didn’t flinch from playing characters that had grey or negative traits- he was good in action sequences too.

His first leading role was in Gulzar’s directorial debut ‘Mere Apne’. He experienced stardom & success in the late 1970s and was seen playing solo protagonist in films like ‘Inkaar’, ‘Shaque’ (to name just two, there are many). He held his own in multi-starrers too; that is also a very long list. I would like to mention that he was repeated by al the filmmakers of that time- Feroz Khan, Sunil Dutt, Prakash Mehra, Manmohan Desai, Raj Khosla etc.

We are thinking of Vinod Khanna on what would have been his 80th birthday.

Raksha Bandhan 2026 will be celebrated on Friday, August 28, 2026.
