It has not caught on as much in Houston though. To learn more about how it is faring, we will talk today with Dr. Khurram Siddiqui, a dentist by profession but also an enthusiast who owns Houston Squash Club which has 8 courts, an interactive court and a Championship Arena. 4:40 pm Uma Mantravadi is known all over the city for her legal practice specializing in immigration; her ever-ready smile; her singing talent with her melodious voice which can reach impossibly high notes and her Saturday radio show that focuses on immigration. She joins us today to tell us how she pulls this all off. 5:00 pm The Art of Living is a movement spearheaded by Guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, who founded it in 1981 in Bangalore and now has centers in 108 countries. It teaches stress-elimination and self-development programs that are based on the breathing technique Sudarshan Kriya, meditation and yoga. Art of Living has been an educational and humanitarian organization in the U.S. since 1989 and accredited as a United Nations non-governmental organization in 1996. Houston Chapter coordinators Raghu Chunduru & Pramod Bansal join us today to talk about Guruji’s upcoming visit to the city.   5:20 pm We have a very special guest today, Jawahar’s mother Shakuntala Malhotra who turned 95 today. She was born on July 22, 1928 in Lahore and grew up in Lyallpur in pre-Partitioned India. She came to Delhi on one of the last trains that left the strife-ravaged area and has often talked in public about her experience of that time. Since 2004, she has lived in Houston with her son and become widely known as “Mama” as she attends many functions across the city. She has also written over 200 Homemade Punjabi recipes which were published in Indo American News and are available on our website. Today, she is with us in the studio as we serenade her on her 95th birthday!!
