Surabhi – a cultural magazine that has been voted as one of the top ten television programmes of India. For over ten years Surabhi has travelled all over the country, covering fascinating facets of Indian culture, in the widest sense of the word.
The life and living of the various peoples of India is brought to you with all its rich plurality. But Surabhi brings to you not just a record or report but insight and understanding of India in evolution, mirroring the changes of an ancient culture metamorphosing into a modern nation.
And in the process of presenting the various dimensions of India’s vast heritage, interactivity has been an important goal. Our Sawal Jawab (the Weekly Competition Section in the programme) was the first of its kind to elicit audience response.
Cyberspace has provided us with the perfect medium to help us share more. We welcome you to IndiaSurabhi, a web we plan to weave with you. Here’s a gallery of the vast wealth of knowledge that we have garnered over the years...presented with all its rich colours and images. The Explore India section is only a trailer.
Surabhi’s Audio-Visual Treasure offers you much more. It is your access to our database of information and images. There is a customised search engine that helps you swim through this sea of cultural knowledge. Here, you can get a glimpse of the largest private collection of video material on India – gathered while making Surabhi and painstakingly catalogued and maintained. This is not only a treasure for filmmakers but also all of you who wish to know and see more about India and its peoples.
And did you know “Surabhi” means fragrance? So come and be a part of this fragrance that now pervades cyberspace.
