कल तोषी सेलिब्रिटी बन गई लाहौर में

कल तोषी का दूसरी प्रदर्शनी को बहुत अच्छी प्रतिक्रिया मिली.काफी लोग आए और मीडिया से बात करते-करते थक गई.उसने बताया कि वह बहुत आह्लादित है.मैं भी खुश हूँ कि बेटी ने यह उपलब्धि हासिल की.हालांकि यह बेटियों का ब्लॉग है,लेकिन मुझे लिखते हुए खुशी हो रही है कि कल विभा रानी का रायपुर में शानदार शो हुआ.उन्होंने अपने नाटक का प्रदर्शन किया.उनकी कामयाबी भी एक बेटी की कामयाबी है.दो पीढियों की बेटियों की यह कामयाबी अच्छी लग रही है।
पेश है सुबह-सुबह तोषी की प्रदर्शनी पर छपी यह रपट:

Rabbia Arshad

LAHORE: A solo exhibition titled 'Baji Nama' by Vidha Saumya opened here by Safdar Aseff Ahmed Ali at the Niarang Art Gallery on Tuesday. Some 35 art pieces were put on display.Vidha Saumya is an Indian artist and came to Pakistan under the SAARC exchange programme. Talking to The Post, the artist said she had once been an admirer of a lady 'at my hostel. All my sketches are a tribute to her," she added.The exhibition revolves around the employment of a main theme, baji meaning elder sister. It is this character that inspires the artist wherein different postures, styles and gestures are drawn with poetic verses to add in detail to further illustrate the general idea.The medium used is pen alone on white paper to highlight the character. The work is said to be spell-bounding, to say the least.Scores of artists including Ambreen, Siama, Abid Khan, Michhoo, Shahid and Amad along with a good gathering of students all were present to view the work.Ambreen told The Post that the strokes and the lines 'are excellent, giving forth a strong effect.' "There is a story there. All packed in a serial form," she added while Abid Khan termed the work to be thought-provoking and centring on women's rights. He said the use of free hand technique paints a story of a woman entangled in typical cultural domestic troubles. The exhibition will continue till May 8.
