The Nebraska Union Ballroom was
packed close to its 450 person capacity
for the 1 1th annual India Night Sunday.
The only decorations were three
balloons with "India Night" written on
them. But bright colors were everywhere
in the saris worn by many of the women.
But it was not an evening solely for
Indian students; the diverse audience
included students and community
members from the United States and many
other countries, like Malaysia, China,
Iran and Egypt.
Susie Peter Menon Jitab, a UNL
student from Malaysia, said she came to
India Night to get a taste of home.
"I just wanted to try the food, and after
eating it, it reminds me of home," she said.
Jitab said both Malaysian and Indian
foods are more spicy than American food.
Rajen Doshi, a graduate student from
India who helped cook the food, said
about 30 people worked all day to prepare
the dishes. All the dishes except one were
vegetarian dishes, because of the religious
practices of most Indians. The dishes
included beans, potatoes, rice, yogurt,
bread, spinach, chicken and two sweet
dishes.
Doshi said sweets are served only during
special occasions in India and usually are
eaten before or with a meal, instead of
after it.
Ail of the cultural events were
performed by amateurs, except the kathak
dance. Professional dancer Sanskriti Shah
agreed to. do the dance at the last minute,
when one of the performers became sick.
Other performances included prayer
songs and instrumental pieces by Indian
children, classical dances in which the
music was enhanced by the sound of
bells on the womens' ankles and a popular
Indian song about a Gandhian philosophy:
"If one does all the work, he gets tired, so
we all cooperate and do the work."
UNL chemical engineering student Ray
Shahani and his brother Robb, a
sophomore at Lincoln East High School,
played traditional Indian music on the
tabla (Indian drum) and sitar (Indian lute)
respectively.
The Shahani brothers, who are
American citizens, studied Indian music
in New Delhi for five months. Their father,
Khem Shahani, a UNL food science and
technology professor, is from India.
Ray and Robb sat cross-legged on the
stage during the performance. Sitting
shows respect for the audience, said
Sarma Paritala, treasurer of the Indian
Student Association, which sponsored
India Night.
"Standing means they are in a big
hurry," he said. "Sitting is a relaxed
position as the audience is relaxed."
The performance ended with the Indian
and American national anthems, the latter
of which was lead partially by last-minute
recruits from the audience.
Paritala said he thinks the evening was
successful because of the large number of
graduate students in the Indian student
population that attended the event.
"They (graduate students) make it a
point to get involved, and have made it
a big success," he said.
