Kolkata, 21 April 2025: The Bridging Culture & Arts Foundation (B-CAF) proudly bought to the city a Solo Exhibition by acclaimed Artist Malay Saha, Silent Narratives: Object in Dialogue, marking his return to the art scene after a gap of twelve years. The exhibition will run from 19^th April to 3^rd May, 2025 from 4 – 8 pm, except Mondays at B-CAF. The inaugural event was graced by Hiran Mitra, Eminent Artist; Bonnya Bose, Cultural Entrepreneur and Curator; Ayan Sen, Eminent Architect; and Reena Dewan, Exhibition Curator, Femina Gamechanger Awardee & Director of B-CAF. This exhibition marked a renewed engagement with his artistic journey, allowing for a more nuanced exploration of his evolution with subtlety and quiet conviction.

In an effort to combine artistic and personal synergies, B-CAF revisited its inaugural spirit with a distinctive and innovative approach. Each guest was asked to choose an everyday object placed before them such as a teapot, a pen or a spoon, and speak about its significance in their lives. They shared what the item symbolised, the memories it evoked, and the personal meaning it held. This inventive and engaging format led to a juxtaposition of different perceptions and augmented communication between artists, guests and visitors.

Malay, an artist from Kala Bhavan, Santiniketan and a Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant awardee, is a contemporary artist whose works are in the collections of prestigious museums, including the National Gallery of Modern Art and the Botswana National Museum, among others. His artistic journey, shaped by his formative years in Santiniketan during the Communist era, is marked by a deep engagement with materiality, space and power dynamics. Feelings of isolation during this period led him to imbue domestic objects—chairs, beds and pillows—with layered meanings. What began as mere representations of everyday objects gradually evolved into potent political symbols. The chair, in particular, emerged as a recurring motif, its anthropomorphic form embodying both presence and absence—a structure of power that he felt was missing from his own life as a student navigating institutional hierarchies.

Malay’s fascination with miniature painting, with its multiple viewpoints and fluid spatial constructions, plays a critical role in his practice. His engagement with this tradition was further shaped by his evening sessions with his teacher, K.G. Subramanyan, whose own explorations of multi-perspective compositions deeply influenced Malay’s approach. The division of space within his canvases, the rejection of a singular vanishing point and the construction of fragmented yet cohesive narratives all reflect this lineage. In his works, perspective is not fixed but shifts dynamically, compelling the viewer to navigate the image with an active gaze.

“My work is not conceptual; it is purely visual, as I give primary importance to the act of seeing,” says Malay.

His surfaces are often textured with a meticulous stitch-like pattern—a tactile memory derived from the coarse, woven duri upon which he once slept. This painstaking mark-making becomes an act of inscription, a form of labor that embeds personal history into the canvas, evoking both endurance and impermanence. The repetitive process mirrors the physicality of embroidery and weaving, transforming texture into both a visual and haptic experience.

“In this new body of work, Malay has made a decisive shift in form—from the structured geometries of squares and rectangles to the fluidity of circles. This movement signals an expansion of his spatial explorations, offering a sense of continuity rather than containment. Additionally, he introduces a radical departure from his earlier two-dimensional compositions by incorporating layered paper structures that elevate the surface. This shift invites the viewer into his space, a stark contrast to his previous works, where engagement remained observational, confined to a distant, multi-view perspective,” said Reena Dewan, Curator of the show.

This transition—from observing to inhabiting—marks an evolution not only in Malay’s formal language but also in his conceptual inquiry. The act of inviting the viewer into his constructed spaces reflects an openness, a gesture of inclusion and perhaps a reconciliation with the city. His decision to present this body of work as a solo exhibition in Kolkata is not merely a homecoming but a deliberate re-engagement with the cultural and artistic landscape that once shaped him. Through these works, Malay Saha continues to navigate memory, materiality and the politics of space with quiet yet profound intensity.

Gurugram, April 21, 2025: In a unique tribute to Earth Day, Anant Raj Limited successfully hosted the Anant Raj Runathon 2025—a vibrant celebration of fitness, family, and sustainability.

The event took place on the morning of April 20 at Anant Raj Estate, Sector 63A, Gurugram, attracting over 800 enthusiastic participants from across the Delhi-NCR region and beyond.

Curated by the renowned Coach Ravinder, a familiar name in the running circuit, the Runathon offered four race categories: 10-mile and 5-mile timed runs, a 5-mile walkathon, and a 1-mile kids’ run. Runners of all ages and backgrounds laced up to run through the lush, scenic roads surrounding the Sector 63A neighborhood—many for fun, and others for a cause.

The real estate sector in Gurugram has been significantly propelled, with key infrastructure projects catalyzing this growth. With the growing infrastructure development, property prices are increasing significantly every quarter. Infrastructure upgrades like the Dwarka Expressway have sparked a wave of real estate development, attracting both end-users looking for modern housing options and investors seeking long-term gains. With the expressway near its completion and the tunnel and Manesar flyover on the way, the region is experiencing a dramatic shift in buyer interest, especially from those seeking premium homes that combine accessibility with elevated lifestyle standards.

According to a joint research by CREDAI- Colliers-Liases-Foras, the corridor witnessed a 58% Y-o-Y surge in prices of properties during the October-December 2024 quarter, which is the highest price growth in the country during Q4CY2024. This record growth outpaced all other major cities and micro-markets, making Dwarka Expressway the hottest investment destination in Delhi-NCR and across India. Real estate experts said that this growth along the expressway is an indicator of the rising demand for well-planned, infrastructure-led development. It reflects high investor confidence and robust sales momentum.

Saurab Saharan, Group Managing Director of HCBS Developments, says, “With the advent of Dwarka Expressway, Gurugram is quickly becoming a magnet for buyers and investors seeking a blend of accessibility and modern infrastructure. The region is witnessing a surge in modern residential projects designed to cater to the aspirations of urban homebuyers. Recognizing the area’s potential, we contribute to this transformation by developing luxury homes that ensure a high standard of living for our residents while aligning with future urban development needs.”

The surge in luxury housing demand along the Dwarka Expressway is largely driven by the shifting preferences of high-income buyers who are seeking alternatives to the saturated and congested neighborhoods of Gurugram and Delhi. With its strategic proximity to IGI Airport and thriving commercial hubs like Cyber City and Golf Course Road Extension, Dwarka Expressway offers a perfect blend of access and exclusivity.

Moreover, the sectors along the expressway are well-known for various reasons, but sector 102 connects to the NH8, Hero Honda Chowk, and Pataudi Road. Increased connectivity makes it very popular, and is also close to a Special Economic Zone, which offers several job opportunities. As per 99 acres, in terms of price appreciation/depreciation, property rates in Sector 102, Gurgaon changed by 13.3 % in the last 1 year, 117.9 % in the last 3 years, 129.7 % in the last 5 years and 138.3 % in the last 10 years.

 Surender Kaushik, Founder & Director of Aryan Realty Infratech Pvt. Ltd says, “Dwarka Expressway has captured the attention of homebuyers across NCR, with Sector 102, in particular, quickly becoming synonymous with upscale living. Its strategic location, just minutes from IGI Airport and the Delhi border, combined with planned infrastructure and an evolving social ecosystem, makes it a magnet for luxury seekers. At ARIPL, our projects in Sector 102 reflect this aspiration, and leading the narrative of luxury housing in the region.”

Besides, the corridor is witnessing a transformation as reputed developers roll out a new generation of luxury residential projects tailored for discerning buyers. From expansive 3 BHK and 4 BHK residences to ultra-premium penthouses and smart homes, the focus is clearly on offering spacious, future-ready living spaces. What was once considered aspirational—clubhouses, wellness zones, concierge services, EV charging points, and AI-enabled security systems—has now become standard. Developers are competing not just on location, but on lifestyle, raising the bar for luxury living in NCR.

Rajjath Goel, Managing Director, MRG Group, says, “Luxury housing along Dwarka Expressway is no longer a niche trend, instead, it’s a clear reflection of evolving buyer aspirations. HNIs and NRIs are increasingly seeking prime, well-connected locations that offer both lifestyle and long-term value, and this corridor ticks all the checkboxes. The demand isn’t just for square footage, it’s for curated experiences, green living, and integrated wellness. At MRG, we’re responding to this shift with thoughtfully designed luxury residences that prioritize sustainability, serenity, and sophistication.”

Dr Vishesh Rawat, VP & Head of Sales, Marketing, and CRM, M2K Group, says, “Luxury housing on Dwarka Expressway is emerging as one of the most compelling real estate investments in NCR today. With soaring property prices, strong sales momentum, and non-stop infrastructure development, this corridor is anticipated to deliver impressive ROI in the coming years. Hence, we believe the corridor will continue delivering premium options in real estate, and those entering now stand to gain significantly in both value and experience.”

Therefore, as the expressway continues seeing developments, the region’s real estate is set for substantial appreciation, making it a hotspot for investors eyeing strong returns. With rental yields improving and capital values expected to rise significantly over the next 3–5 years, luxury properties here are increasingly being seen not just as homes, but as high-performing investment assets with long-term potential.
