Standing on Her Own Feet: Kala Shahani by SPARROW
<p>In order to reach Lanka, Rama began to build a bridge. A little squirrel wanted to contribute its mite to this effort. It began to jump into the water and then roll on the sand and then run to where the bridge was coming up to shed the sand. Amazed at this unusual activity, Rama asked the squirrel what it was up to. The squirrel replied that it was doing what it could, to help build the bridge.</p> <p>There must be many who, like that squirrel, have contributed quietly to our independence. They also have their own stories to tell. Kala Shahani too, has a story of her own.</p> <p>Learn more about SPARROW here:<a href="https://www.sparrowonline.org/"> https://www.sparrowonline.org/</a></p> <p><strong>And to buy any of the inspiring titles by SPARROW in audio, you can make a payment of Rs. 100 per title, using this link:<a href="https://sparrowonline.org/payment/index.html"> https://sparrowonline.org/payment/index.html</a> </strong></p> <p><strong>Kindly email your contact number and name, as well as the particular audiobook that you’d like SPARROW to send you, to sparrow1988@gmail.com after making the payment.</strong></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

Pramila - Esther Victoria Abraham by SPARROW
<p>It has been a long journey for Esther Victoria Abraham, known as Pramila, to the film world. From a girl who stood under the foyer clock of her Calcutta school - punished for giggling and playing pranks - to a Hindi cinema actor in Bombay, from marriage to a celebrated actor to becoming a producer in her own right, Pramila has travelled a long way. The journey of this venturesome, vivacious woman has been marked by many road maps, many destinations. Not all these destinations have brought her joy but if one were to believe Pramila, all of them have been worth the journey.</p> <p>At eighty-one, when Pramila narrates her story, Pramila's mind is a treasure house of details and anecdotes that she never tires of narrating. From this narration emerges an insider's view of the Hindi film world and of the many women and men who formed a part of it, a part not often revealed.</p> <p>Learn more about SPARROW here:<a href="https://www.sparrowonline.org/"> https://www.sparrowonline.org/</a></p> <p><strong>And to buy any of the complete inspiring titles by SPARROW in audio, you can make a payment of Rs. 100 per title, using this link:<a href="https://sparrowonline.org/payment/index.html"> https://sparrowonline.org/payment/index.html</a> </strong></p> <p><strong>Kindly email your contact number and name, as well as the particular audiobook that you’d like SPARROW to send you, to sparrow1988@gmail.com after making the payment.</strong></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
