Kung Fu Panda
Enthusiastic, big and a little clumsy, Po is the biggest fan of kung fu around, which doesn’t exactly come in handy while working in his family’s noodle shop. Unexpectedly chosen to fulfil an ancient prophecy, Po’s dreams become reality when he joins the world of kung fu and studies alongside his idols, the legendary Furious Five – Tigress, Crane, Mantis, Viper and Monkey – under the leadership of their guru, Master Shifu. But before they know it, the vengeful and treacherous snow leopard Tai Lung is headed their way, and it’s up to Po to defend everyone from the oncoming threat. Can he turn his dreams of becoming a kung fu master into reality? Po puts his heart – and his girth – into the task and the unlikely hero ultimately finds that his greatest weaknesses turn out to be his greatest strengths.

Hari Rang, Hari Sang
Celebrating Pandit Hari Prasad Chaurasia’s 70th birthday.
 
The students of Vrindaban Gurukul invite you to a special birthday celebration of their guru, flute maestro Pandit Hari Prasad Chaurasia, at 6.30pm on July 1 at Nehru Centre. This event has been made possible by the generous support of Garden Vareli and Music Today.
 
For the fans of a man who mostly chooses to speak through the melodic tunes of his bansuri, this will be a rare and unique occasion to get up close and personal with Hariprasad Chaurasia. He will be quizzed by India’s youth icon and celebrated singer Sonu Niigaam.
 
The event will feature music performed by a group of talented musicians and singers from Pune and Mumbai, including some surprise guest artistes, a few audio-visual presentations and an interview with Hariji.
 
The event also marks the release of Chaurasia’s official biography, Woodwinds of Change by Surjit Singh. A collection of rare recordings, titled Hari Rang, Hari Sang, will be presented as a memento to all guests present at the event.
 
Lucky Time Out Mumbai readers can win invites.

Waterfall Abseiling 
 
The huge rock cut caves are at the foothills of Rajmachi village famous for the Manoranjan and Shrivardhan forts. These caves are known to have exhibitions of most sophisticated carvings. They are at a walking distance of half an hour from Kondivde village. Kondivde can be reached by hiring a six- seater rickshaw from Karjat railway station.
 
The caves are decorated with fine carvings. The structure consists of beautiful Hinayanpanthiya caves, with one chaitya having a huge stupa and seven vihars, and two other caves dating back to first century BC. It is advisable to carry lots of drinking water along as the water here may not be potable except in the rainy season.
 
Caution: Waterfall abseiling is a technical adventure activity. We recommend basic fitness levels to participate. Not recommended for those affected by heart problems, epilepsy or medical conditions.
We reserve the right to abort abseiling in case of incessant rain due to safety reasons. We supply harness, helmets and safety gear.
 
Dates: July 20, 2008
Cost: Rs 1,450 per person
