URBAN VAASTU - Building modern India - April 2015

In dieser Angelegenheit

IN an era when the institution of marriage is under enormous strain, especially in the western world, it is heartening for us in India that this beautiful coming together of two individuals and the concomitant social covenant – entered into with the blessings of elders and the endorsement of relatives and friends – continues to strengthen our society. A marriage is still considered a sacred act and most parents eagerly look forward to the day their sons and daughters enter into a blissful alliance with their respective partners. Most parents, irrespective of their economic background, start saving for their children’s weddings by investing in gold and other ornaments from an early age. Undoubtedly, the ratio of wedding expenses to incomes must be among the highest in India by any yardstick.
Our cover story in this month’s edition of Urban Vaastu focuses on the Big Fat Indian Wedding. Continuing our focus on growth hubs in urban India, we take a look at central Mumbai, one of the most vibrant property markets in the country. We also feature Ahmedabad – both historic and contemporary. And in our travel section, read all about that great European city, Paris. April will see millions of Hindus celebrate Ram Navami, which marks the birth of Lord Rama, the Maryada Purshottama (the perfect man). In the interview section of the magazine you will get to know the views of Pinaki Misra, the MP from Puri – and chairperson of Parliament’s standing committee on urban development – on a host of contemporary issues confronting the sector. We also feature an article by Anshuman Magazine, a real estate industry veteran and head of the India practice of CBRE, a leading international real estate services firm.James Law, the internationally renowned architect – who is also on our
advisory board – has an interesting piece on how to choose and get the best out of an architect.
