I’m off to Hollywood for International Women’s Day and the Hollywood opening of Deepa Mehta’s film Water. I’ll be schmoozing with Hollywood’s actors and actresses, just days after the Oscar’s. Actually, I have no idea what I’m going to be doing there other than participating in a question and answer on human rights in India. I’m sure I’ll be woefully underdressed for this occassion (my used, slightly too small green jacket that I bought at a used clothing store will be no match for Brad Pitt’s fancy get-up).
It’s going to be an extremely quick trip. I’m leaving tomorrow morning at 7am, will arrive there at 1:30pm, then leave around noon the next day. I tried to squeeze in a trip to Phoenix to see my parents, and my sister’s family, but the connections didn’t work out– I’d have to be away another day, which I can’t afford.
So, no updates from Govind on his side, but Charlotte said that she’ll post some stuff on this blog very soon!!
