Hello Friends,
1. I came across this beautiful documentary film on the life and
contributions of Jagannath alias Nana Shankersheth, in whose name the
famous Jagannath Shankersheth Sanskrit Scholarship was established around
1857. Ashok Aklujkar, Ganesh Thite, and I, among many others, won this
Sanskrit scholarship. Shankershet worked closely with Mountstuart
Elphonstone, the first British governor of Bombay, and significantly
contributed to the establishment of numerous educational and cultural
institutions in Bombay. The film depicts his manifold contributions.
