CULTURAMA - November 2018

في هذه القضية

The October edition of Culturama celebrates the presence of India around the world - as little cultural touches seen in people's day-to-day lives. Be it the use of titles such as 'Rama' for kings in Thailand or the delicious Bunny Chow of South Africa, Indians have helped infuse a bit of their homeland wherever they went, even as they adopted the best of their newfound lands. We also bring you the flip-side of things, with James Miller, Group CTO at TAFE, sharing his experience of immersing himself in India - and the time he had to be part of 'obligatory selfies'.

SNAP to ATTENTION: Look out for the first-of-its-kind 'India LIVING Awards' - a glamorous ceremony in which winners of the Beautiful India Photo Competition will be felicitated.
