    A taut police procedural set against the volatile backdrop of the India-Nepal border, POOJA, SIR is the third feature film by Deepak Rauniyar. The film had its world premiere at the Venice International Film Festival in August 2024—one of the most prestigious film festivals globally, recognized at the same level as Cannes and Berlin. It received widespread critical acclaim, with Screen International Daily calling it “a spare, affecting thriller… builds to a resolution that does more than simply answer whodunit.” The Film Fest Post described it as “one of Venice Film Festival’s most remarkable and must-watch entries this year” and praised its “visionary direction.” Other critics highlighted its “unique blend of social realism and Hollywood thriller aesthetics.” Since its Venice premiere, POOJA, SIR has screened at over two dozen major international film festivals, including Tallinn Black Nights, Göteborg, Busan, Thessaloniki, and Mumbai, further solidifying its global recognition. The film is set for theatrical release in multiple countries, including Nepal and the U.S. this March, followed by a summer rollout across most of Europe and Australia. Additionally, the UK’s Channel 4 has acquired its broadcast rights.

Veerbhadra temple located in Lepakshi is famous for monumental temple architecture of Vijaynagar Empire period. The extensive mural paintings executed on the walls and temple ceilings are world famous. One of the painting ‘Girija Kalyanam’ depicts story of marriage of Shiv and Parvati. It is a narrative panel. It starts with the painting famously known as ‘Parvati’s toilet’. In this paper, I have tried to prove that it is not ‘Parvati’s toilet’ but ‘Manmath Pooja’

    Multicomponent targeted proapoptotic anticancer drug delivery system

    Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in United States. The current approaches for the treatment of solid tumor available are the surgery for the removal of primary tumor followed by chemotherapy and /or radiation. The efficacy of chemotherapy is limited by the following factors; (1) adverse side-effects on healthy organs, (2) development of cellular resistance and (3) low solubility of many anticancer drugs. The primary objective of this dissertation is to overcome all the above stated limitations. The methods employed in this dissertation includes designing, synthesizing and evaluating a novel drug delivery system comprising of 1) multiple copies of an anticancer drug, Camptothecin (CPT) ; 2) a polymeric carrier, Polyethylene glycol (PEG); 3) multiple copies of a targeting moiety to cancer cells, Luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) peptide; 4) multiple copies of a suppressor of antiapoptotic cellular defense, BH3 peptide both in vitro and in vivo on A2780 human ovarian carcinoma cells and malignant ascites and animal models respectively. Conjugates of CPT, LHRH and CPT, LHRH, BH3 were evaluated for cytotoxicity, cancer specificity and antitumor activity. The multicomponent anticancer delivery system will significantly enhance the efficacy of an anticancer drug in the treatment of all the stages of cancer when compared with free drug, non-targeted delivery systems or the system consisting of one copy of each active component.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Pooja Chandn
