When we think of the first year of Spark, this is one edition we fondly look back at. It is one of those issues where we tried our hand at making a transition – in bringing many popular voices into one issue. For the first and perhaps the only time so far, we got seven different short-and-sweet interviews and columns on many aspects that define India. We also had two guest columns – by two non-Indians talking about what they love about the country. In all, a very memorable issue for the editorial team, the contributors and the readers.[/box]

The land of a billion footprints...

 

The land of anchored freedom...

 

The land of hidden rainbows...

 

 The land of monsoon farming...

 

The land of delectable food...

 

The land of rituals...

 

The land of silent conversations...

 

The land of surprise showers...

 

The land of the watchful shepherd...

 

The land of unsigned artists...

 

The land of venerated guests...

Jai Chabria is one amongst a rare tribe of media-shy media professionals. When faced with a camera, he prefers to shock the photographer by running right round behind it. He is one of those who believe in their right to remain undiscovered and undescribed in any manner.
