Vincent van Gogh, Dinanath Dalal and Blatant Colours...व्हिन्सेंट व्हॅन घो, दीनानाथ दलाल आणि ठळक रंग

 आज दीनानाथ दलाल (३०/५/१९१६- १५/१/१९७१) यांची १०९वी जयंती आहे ... 

Julian Barnes, London Review of Books, July 30 2015:

"...No one did colour more blatantly and more unexpectedly than Van Gogh. Its blatancy gives his pictures their roaring charm. Colour, he seems to be saying: you haven’t seen colour before, look at this deep blue, this yellow, this black; watch me put them screechingly side by side. Colour for Van Gogh was a kind of noise. At the same time, it couldn’t have seemed more unexpected, coming from the dark, serious, socially concerned young Dutchman who for so many years of his early career had drawn and painted dark, serious, socially concerned images of peasants and proletarians, of weavers and potato-pickers, of sowers and hoers. This emergence, this explosion from darkness, has no parallel except for that of Odilon Redon..."

जादुगार चंदु, भारतात चंदु नाव त्यामुळे लोकप्रिय झाले का?...Chandu the Magician and Doctor Strange

I did not know the existence of Chandu the Magician.

It is an American supernatural radio drama which originally aired from 1931 to 1936. A revival on a different network took place 12 years later, airing from 1948 to 1950. 

Gayne Whitman played the lead role of American-born Frank Chandler (Chandu), who had learned occult secrets from a yogi in India. Known as Chandu, he possessed several supernatural skills, including astral projection, teleportation and the ability to create illusions. Chandu's goal was to "go forth with his youth and strength to conquer the evil that threatens mankind"

Facebook page 'Comic Book Historians' says on September 7 2024 : "As Stan Lee himself admitted, Doctor Strange was Steve Ditko's idea. A few issues after his 1963 premiere, Doctor Strange's origin by both Lee and Ditko, was published. Lee claims the origin was influenced by Chandu the Magician, a radio serial that became a film in 1932. In this film, Westerner Frank Chandler travels to India to train under an ancient yogi and becomes the sorcerer Chandu. He combats the evil mastermind Roxor, portrayed by Bela Lugosi. Chandu’s powers of astral projection, mentalism, and teleportation through hand gestures are especially fun to watch."
