 Of all the legacies of India, among the most fascinating are her various classical dance forms. Connoisseurs believe that one lifetime is not enough to master even one of them. Against such a backdrop, what is it that makes Sonal Man Singh arguably one of the greatest exponents of Indian classical dance? There is no difference between dance and life. And therefore Nataraj, the Shiva, is the symbol of the cosmic dance, the particles, the atoms, every bit of space is dancing constantly. Her mastery over not one but various classical dance forms and her boundless creative energy have resulted in the choreography of outstanding issue-related themes. Sonal Man Singh, a true Indian legend. It is said that one can spend a lifetime trying to perfect Indian classical music and still merely touch a drop in this vast ocean. But when one inherits it from five generations of legendary maestros, the drops add up to become, if not an ocean, at least a joyous rivulet. One that flows forth from the maestro's soul to immerse the hearts of listeners across cultures in divine bliss. Such is the effect of Ustad Amjad Ali Khan's Sarut on audiences worldwide. The list of the Ustad's awards reads like a veritable catalogue accolades in the field of music. However, his greatest rewards are the unique vibes as performances have always created with his listeners. This is Ustad Amjad Ali Khan, an Indian legend whose genius no words can describe. India has always been a farming society, dependent on the sweat and toil of the farmer. And yet, till just a few decades back, the farming fraternity was an exploitative lot. Two things changed all that. First, the green revolution and second, the white revolution or operation flood. Fifty years ago, the pork dairy farmer found an unlikely messiah in the incarnation of a mechanical engineer from Michigan State University. He is Dr. E. Corian and starting from Anand, a small village in Gujarat, India. He taught the dairy farming community the power of collective effort. Operation flood really began when Dr. Corian set up the National Dairy Development Board in 1970. When you work for those who are less fortunate than you, and when they pay you a salary, which is several times their own income, then you become good to serve them. And that is the greatest reward of all for Dr. V. Corian, the milkman of India, a true Indian legend. Think of the hallowed precincts of Oxford and Harvard, and one can hardly be expected to envision the plight of the starving millions. And yet it is here that one man painstakingly evolved path-breaking theories on welfare economics that would be a catalyst in enhancing the quality of lives of the poorest of the poor. Not surprising, he is an Indian. Professor Amartya Sen, a Nobel Prize winner in economic sciences, a caring philosopher. Professor Sen has utilized the proceeds of the Nobel Prize to start a trust each in India and neighboring Bangladesh. The trust in India is education. The three objectives outlined for both the trust are one, reduction of illiteracy and lack of school education, two, reduction of lack of basic health care, and three, reduction of gender inequality. This is Professor Amartya Sen, Nobel Prize winner in economics, a champion of the impoverished, a true Indian legend. Narayan Muthi, founding father, chairman and CEO of Infosys Technologies, the mega 115 billion US dollar ITM prior with the world's largest single software facility. What makes him truly great is his unique humanitarian commitment that puts community about self. I'm what you would call a compassionate capitalist which means I'm a capitalist in mind and a socialist at heart. My aim in life is to leverage technology, leverage the power of the Indian talent to create wealth not just for Infosys people but for the entire country. This is Narayan Muthi, lover of humanity, a true Indian legend.
