Launch of the Documentary Vivek on the Auspicious Occasion of Swami Vivekananda's 161st birthday

News Desk, News Nation 360 : Recognised for his profound wisdom and universal teachings, Swami Vivekananda is an iconic spiritual leader who has always been a source of inspiration for people of all ages, genders, and cultures. His ageless ideas are still very applicable in today's environment. The renowned director Abhijit Dasgupta intends to release "Vivek," a documentary feature film, which is being presented by Harshavardhan Neotia, Chairman of Ambuja Neotia, as a way to share his profound insights with the next generation. The movie not only masterfully depicts tales from his childhood and ancestral home, but it also chronicles his trip to Chicago, where he went to spread awareness of Sri Sri Ramakrishna's faiths and religions among Americans. Swami Vivekananda is regarded as the greatest educator because of his travels, his many monikers at different points in time, and his experiences in Almora, Porbandar, Mount Abu, and Cape Comorin. One of the most important lessons to take away from this movie is the value of remaining relevant throughout time. The experiences of Swami Vivekananda and his progressive celebration of women's power are astounding. It has the power to successfully instil in Sister Nivedita a spirit of revolution and alter how society views women. The principles of universal brotherhood, tolerance, and scientific thinking espoused by Swami Vivekananda are highly pertinent in today's divided and fast-changing world. Abhijit Dasgupta introduced this film, acknowledging the existence of a strong personal and emotional involvement with Swamiji's philosophies. He thinks that 'Vivek' will not only introduce young people to the profound wisdom of Swami Vivekananda in an entertaining and illuminating way, but it will also instil in them the habit of not taking anything at face value. Today's children need to develop a logical, questioning, and inquisitive mind. This revolutionary feature is scheduled to be released on the 161st anniversary of Swami Vivekananda's birth, which also happens to be India's National Youth Day. This feature will help today's youth understand Swami Vivekananda's teachings more thoroughly by bridging the gap between historical iconography and in-depth comprehension. Abhijit Dasgupta stated that they have given life to a fictional science professor and his students through an interactive Q&A format, offering an engaging platform to impart Swami-ji's timeless values. The docu-feature film's engaging narrative structure is exceptional and incredibly motivating.
