Please join us in the first South Asian Television event organized
by San Francisco's SAAFA at
Northwestern! The event will host speakers who have
both worked in film and television in America and India.
Deep Katdare will be present to discuss his
experience with the movie, American Desi. To date this
is the only non-studio, Indian American film to make a
net profit theatrically! Deep is regularly seen in mainstream TV
serials such as Law & Order, CSI and Over There.
Also present will be Barkha Madan, established
television actress and former Miss India Tourism (4th place in Miss
India 1994, the year Sush came first and Ash second). With
more than a decade of TV experience, Barkha has worked
on Indian serials such as Ghar Ek Sapna, Saat Phere,
Jhansi Ki Rani, Mere Humsafer and many others others.
Barkha also made her debut in Bollywood playing a ghost
in Ram Gopal Varma's film, Bhoot alongside Rekha, Nana
Patekar, Fardeen Khan, Ajay Devgan, Urmilla and Tanuja.
We hope to show you a glimpse of the happening and moneymaking TV
industry from a behind the scenes perspective. We will discuss the
growing international interest in India's entertainment industry and
the changes that are happening in Bombay and NY/LA to satisfy this
hunger. Please join us in a lively event that will change your
understanding of what the opportunities (both creative and business)
for Television really is!
