 (Kamasutra) The basic tenet of the Kama Sutra is that in order for marriages to be happy, both man and woman should be well-versed in the arts of pleasure, both carnal and cerebral. The topics explored include Society and Social Concepts, On Sexual Union, About the Acquisition of a Wife, About a Wife, About the Wives of Other Men, About Courtesans, and On the Means of Attracting Others to Yourself. The painting contains detailed on what a man must do to win over a woman, what a woman must do to win over a man, the states of a woman's mind, the role of a go-between, and the reasons why women might reject the advances of men. In terms of choosing a mate, the Kama Sutra advises on whether to consider fellow students or childhood friends. It provides charts that categorize male and female physical types and their compatibility with their lover's body. Varieties of embracing, kissing, scratching, biting, oral sex, and sexual intercourse are elaborated.

Hopeful heart - Sakunthala waits for Dushyant:

This painting depicts the beautiful nymph- Sakunthala, as she eagerly waits for her lover the King Dushyant. The essence of Poet Kalidasa's most famous drama is captured in this woodland scene with the innocent heroine searching the horizon with hopeful eyes, eager for even a glimpse of the prince of her heart. The passion and power of her feelings make her forgetful of her sylvan surroundings as her doe like gaze appears to beseech Mother Nature herself to restore her King to her. The backdrop of the bountiful forest at dawn, the exquisitely graceful fawn, and the pristine snowhite of her saree still wet from her bath accentuate Sakunthala's purity of mind and the intensity of her love. The canvas captures the inner torment raging within Sakunthala in her shy gaze as eagerness to behold her lover wars with her innate modesty.

The Indian Supreme Court has banned a version of bull fighting which has been popular for centuries in the southern state of Tamil Nadu.
Jallikattu, which is bull fighting, is an ancient Tamilian tradition, popular amongst warriors during the Tamil classical period. According to legend, in olden days the game was used by women to choose their husbands. Successful "matadors" were chosen as grooms.
The term Jallikattu comes from the term "Salli" kassu (coins) and "Kattu" (meaning a package) tied to the horns of the bulls as the prize money. Later days during the colonial period this term got changed to Jallikattu which is the term currently used. Usually the majestic Kangeyam bull is involved in this game, as they are naturally more ferocious and muscular than any other of its species.

This canvas is a riot of colours brought to life in form of the charming flower girl  by vibrant blooms of myriad hues. It is believed that colours hold an significant place in our lives. They are said to provide vibrational energies to heal mind, body and soul. Medical research has demonstrated that people suffer from less worry, anxiety and depression when they are in the midst of fresh cut flowers. It is believed that even the ancient Altanteans believed in the power of colours to heal bodily imbalances.

 Since times immemorial, humans have believed that colour is the very essence of Life. Scientific studies proved the basis for this belief  by demonstrating how the life giving sunlight is but a fusion of  colours. Our emotions, attitude, feelings, perceptions-  all of these are subtly influenced by the varied hues that surround and embrace  us. That is why flowers find a place in every aspect of human life- be it for religious expression, beautification of oneself, or decoration of one's abode. Colours wield a unique power and Man has always depended on that power to uplift himself spiritually, physically and emotionally.
