Meeting with actress Deepti Naval at the Roerich Estate
“The evening of the ninth of October. At the entrance to the Conference Hall stood a short stately woman in a beautiful red and maroon sari. It was at once clear that she was Deepti Naval. I was fortunate to have the chance to interview Ms. Deepti and ask her questions about her family, her films and her childhood.” This is how Elena Ashikova, a guest from Russia and member of the Russian Family club ‘Semicvetik’ (Moscow), who acted as a host at the presentation of Deepti Naval's new book ‘A Country Called Childhood,’ described her first impression of the meeting with the famous Indian actress. The presentation took place at the International Roerich Memorial Trust on Nicholas Roerich's birthday, during the Russian-Indian Roerich Festival of Culture. The meeting with Deepti Naval at the Roerich Memorial Estate was not accidentally held on the birthday of the Russian artist. The fact is that her father Udaychandra Naval was acquainted with Nicholas Roerich and throughout his life kept precious memories of visiting the Roerichs' house in Naggar. Deepti Naval has devoted pages of one of the chapters of her new book to these memories.
The second day of the Conference in the International Roerich Memorial Trust organized by the Himachal State Museum (Shimla, India) in cooperation with the International Roerich Memorial Trust, the International Centre of the Roerichs (Moscow, Russia) and “Faraon” Historic Films Studio (St. Petersburg, Russia) was opened with an inspiring talk by Dr. Om Kumar Sharma, the founder and head of the Sanskrit School in Kullu, India.
