  "description": "Celebrating KS Nisar Ahmed Through poetry and song with Roopa Pai : Author of “Every Day is a Celebration” – a translation of selected works of KS Nisar Ahmed and Mangala Karthik : A Classical Carnatic Vocalist and Educator. Sumana Chandrashekar : Ghatam Jyotsna Hebbar : Veena About the Event On the occasion of Kannada Rajyotsava we celebrate one of Karnataka’s most beloved poets Padma Shri KS Nisar Ahmed Every Day a Celebration, a new book of translation of Nisar Ahmed’s poetry, gathers some of his finest poems, spanning more than five decades, and introduces his voice to a wider audience through Roopa Pai’s sensitive translation. English readers can now experience the brilliance of a Kannada poet whose voice continues to resonate with urgency and humanity. This special event brings his poetry to life as bestselling author Roopa Pai reads from her English translations of his finest work, while celebrated classical vocalist Mangala Karthik and her musical ensemble perform these iconic verses live as beautiful melodies. About Roopa Pai Roopa Pai is an acclaimed Bengaluru-based author, journalist, and cultural chronicler widely celebrated for making complex philosophies, histories, and literatures deeply accessible to readers. While she is a prolific creator of children’s fantasy and non-fiction, her role as a translator shines brightly in Every Day a Celebration—her landmark debut translation project. Driven by a lifelong passion for her city and its regional heritage, she delicately translates five decades of stirring Kannada verse by the iconic poet K. S. Nisar Ahmed, bridging cultural gaps to allow English-speaking audiences to experience the soul and lyrical beauty of Karnataka’s literary giant. This book beautifully reflects her broader life’s work as a bridge-builder of heritage: whether she is simplifying ancient Indian scriptures like The Gita, unearthing local history through her tour company BangaloreWalks, or translating evocative local poetry, her writing constantly seeks to make profound human experiences feel intimate, relevant, and alive. About Mangala Karthik Mangala Karthik is a Carnatic vocalist, teacher, and co-founder of the Anandi Centre for Music in Bangalore. A disciple of the legendary violinist Padmabhushan Lalgudi Jayaraman and renowned teacher Sangeetha Kalacharya Neela Ramgopal, she brings exceptional pedigree and depth to her music. She is passionate about making classical music accessible to all and has served as a radio jockey, music interviewer, and writer alongside her performance career. Her teaching philosophy emphasises removing jargon and enabling students to experience the joy of Carnatic music at every level. About Sumana Chandrashekar Sumana Chandrashekar is a Bengaluru-based Carnatic percussionist, researcher, and author who stands out as one of the few prominent female players of the ghatam (clay pot).
