Kidding it Aka Killing it: Standup comedian Sonu Venugopal speaks about her latest show
By finding humour in everyday life and staying close to her roots, Bengaluru-based comedian Sonu Venugopal has carved a niche for herself in the world of standup comedy. Growing up in a small town with her grandparents significantly influenced Venugopals narrative style. I had a very happy childhood. And the humour is about the simplicity of things and how we perceive it its just that it is so simple, she recalls. Her latest show, High Risk Low Return, which has an upcoming show on July 6, and will tour outside the city too, is one such reflection of her personal journey, blending together stories from childhood to adulthood. The title, inspired by a piece of financial advice from her mother, serves as a theme that ties the various narratives together. The theme is the title, some financial advice that I got from my mother. And I have tied every story back to this, she shares, adding, When I was performing my first show, Punya Koti, I was parallelly writing this show; around last year, we did a couple of trial shows for the same. Her storytelling style is also influenced by her grandfather who would often share engaging tales. My childhood was marked by my grandfathers fantastic storytelling. A lot of humour in my shows is influenced by my experience of growing up with grandparents, she says. Despite humour being a significant everyday ingredient, Venugopals standup journey is also met with hurdles like the occasional creative blocks which she navigates with a few strategies. Its trial and error every single day. I either drag myself out of the house to go for a walk, or I take short breaks or holidays which often helps me to realign, she shares. Thereby crafting small bits of stories and finding ways to connect them, her plan is to visit several cities, including Mumbai, Mysuru, and Pune and a potential US tour on the horizon starting from this month. Her mantra is having fun on stage, which allows for spontaneity and improvisation. Its like a whole journey for me from the time I have been a child till now...I have tried to tie it together. It would be exciting to perform in a regional language outside the state as well, she notes. When asked what the audiences can majorly expect, Venugopal concludes, saying, I just want them to have fun and have a good laugh. I want them to laugh at the absurdity and relatability factor. Even if they forget about me after the show, its fine. (Watch Sonu Venugopal live on July 6 at Just BLR Comedy Club, Brigade Road at 3.30pm)

BBMP begins blacktopping for 218 roads
BENGALURU: Bengaluru roads are in for a band-aid job. Can the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) do what even God cannot, as a fey Deputy Chief Minister told us? The civic body is now engaged in garnishing 218 major roads with black toppinga total of 670 km at a modest Rs 694 crore. M Lokesh, Chief Engineer, Road Infrastructure Department, BBMP, says the black magic would transform the city roads to best standards. He said the works are expected to be completed in the next 10 months. In phase-1, BBMP claims it has fixed potholes on Mysuru Road and Magadi Road and the roads are in very good condition now. The work was taken up in these stretches due to heavy vehicle movement. Lokesh said that the asphalt work will also involve using stone matrix (use of fibre material in the bitumen) and they will add it at low lying and areas where water stagnates during rains and other reasons. The bitumen, even if comes in contact with water, will not give away and the road will last long, said Lokesh. By the end of December 2025, we hope to complete the works. The BBMP will also take up footpath repairs wherever it is necessary, he added. Road infrastructure expert D Prasad, a member of the Indian Road Congress, said the BBMP should have taken up the project in April and feared about the durability of the project. The base is wet due to the good monsoon. The blacktopping of roads may last up to a year now, he said. He also added that before blacktopping, the officials have to cut the potholes into box size, add bitumen and take up proper fixation before tarring the entire road stretch as this will avoid undulation. However, an engineer from BBMP said the blacktopping is done only when there are no rains and the base is dry. The work from Jnanabharathi Metro Stop to Mysuru Road covering 5.35 km and Magadi Road covering 2.5 km is almost complete and the work was taken up from May and we have completed it. We braved rains and fixed potholes and later when the weather was dry, we blacktopped and used good bitumen. The roads will last over three years now, claimed a BBMP engineer.

Drop fresh caste survey plan, Siroya tells Congress govt in Karnataka
BENGALURU: BJP MP Lahar Singh Siroya has said that the Congress government in the state should drop its plan to conduct a new caste survey and wait for the Union Governments census data. After discarding the survey conducted 10 years ago by spending nearly Rs 200 crore, the ruling Congress has decided to hold the new survey, he said. Apart from wasting public money, the new survey will lead to chaos. There will be two data -- one from old and another from the new survey. People may raise objections after comparing them. Each community will choose the survey that suits it the best. Thus, the very purpose of the survey would be lost, he said. The Union government will also release its census data later. All three surveys will have different data. The state government can help ensure social justice only by dropping its new survey plan, Siroya said. Yathindra says its not wasteful expenditure MYSURU: Congress MLC Yathindra Siddaramaiah has said that the State Governments fresh socio-economic survey is not a wasteful expenditure, as it is the need of the hour for the society and the state. Hitting out at the BJP, the MLC said that the opposition had opposed and had also misled society on the survey. He clarified that these baseless charges and reservations over the report have led the government to order a re-survey, taking people into confidence to uplift all sections of society. The government would have gone by the previous report if there was no opposition, he added. Yathndra said that carrying out the survey is not a problem, as the Telangana and Bihar governments have completed the survey.

Karnataka's Paschimavahini to get specific spots for asthi visarjan
MYSURU: The Cauvery river, the vital lifeline for several districts in Karnataka, is losing its pristine condition at Srirangapatna because of lack of a proper mechanism to control pollution, particularly that caused by religious rituals such as asthi visarjan (immersion of ashes of the deceased), which has been a long-standing tradition. Authorities have now initiated steps and drawn up plans to create designated sites to conduct rituals and to divert underground drainage (UGD) water to prevent the river from getting contaminated. Thousands of devotees from across the country visit the sacred sites of Paschimavahini, Sangama, Gosai Ghat and Snana Ghatta at Srirangapatna to perform last rites and other rituals. The river here is regarded as holy as it is a confluence and immersion of ashes is believed to help departed souls attain moksha (liberation). Incidentally, the ashes of Mahatma Gandhi too were immersed at Paschimavahini. But while performing these rituals, people throw garlands, clay pots and other puja items into the river, greatly polluting the waterbody. As there is no oversight or enforcement, these rituals are conducted at different places along the riverbank, forcing the civic body to clean up the river and its banks regularly. Raising concerns over unchecked rituals, Karnataka Rajya Raitha Sangha district convener Kiranguru Papu aka Mohan Kumar has long campaigned for restricting them to designated sites. Paschimavahini and Sangama have specific spots where these rituals were traditionally conducted for centuries. But now an increasing number of visitors from other states conduct these at random locations, severely polluting the river, which is a source of drinking and irrigation water. Because of our persistent protests, the authorities have now initiated measures to curb pollution, he said. Srirangapatna Town Municipal Council Chief Officer M Rajanna confirmed that immersion rituals are identified as a major source of pollution in the river. A Public Interest Litigation (PIL) was filed in the high court. Later, the deputy commissioner formed a committee comprising district-level officers to plan the development of proper infrastructure to address the problem. A tender has been floated to prepare a Detailed Project Report, Rajanna said. Under the new initiative, dedicated facilities will be created at all four key sites, Paschimavahini, Sangama, Gosai Ghat and Snana Ghatta. These facilities will include systems to prevent ash from mixing directly with river water, along with infrastructure to remove silt. Each site will be developed at an approximate cost of Rs 1 crore. Measures have also been taken to address sewage inflow. A new underground drainage system is being constructed at Rs 16.5 crore to prevent town sewage from entering the river. This work is progressing and will be completed soon, he said.

Fresh socio-educational survey win-win for CM Siddaramaiah, DCM Shivakumar
BENGALURU: The fresh Socio-Educational Survey, including a caste census, has created a win-win situation for both Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, for obliging the Congress high command, and Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar, as the latter safeguarded his integrity as a Vokkaliga leader. With the Congress government declaring a fresh caste survey, by dropping the Socio Economic Educational Survey(SES-2015), which lapsed after 10 years, Shivakumar, apparently, has emerged strong. He was a signatory to the communitys demand for the fresh survey. After Thursdays Cabinet decision, the members of the Vokkaligara Sangha honoured him. But Siddaramaiah, obliging the high command for a fresh survey in the interest of the party, has equally emerged stronger to consolidate his position and is unlikely to step down until the caste census and SC internal quota implementation, according to the legislators who are his sympathisers. Siddaramaiah had reportedly asserted that the SES-2015 will be implemented and managed to get the report with recommendations tabled in the Cabinet. He had promised to fulfil the aspirations of the backward classes to the extent of receiving the report (but could not get it accepted by the cabinet), but was forced to drop the report following the high commands instructions. He is likely to continue his grip over the high command to continue in his post until the completion of the fresh Socio Educational Survey and its implementation. He is also owed to implement the internal quota among SC communities for which the census is underway by the Justice Nagmohan Das Commission. But his opponents and critics expressed skepticism over his continuation as CM. The majority of the legislators realised that he is a mass leader whose charisma helped them to win the polls. Unless the power transfer happens smoothly, and his choice of leader becomes his successor, he is unlikely to step down, and the high command also realised it, observed a senior legislator of the old Mysuru region. In October, when he completes two-and-a-half years, he may take the high commands nod for the reshuffle of the Cabinet, said another Congress leader. Siddaramaiah will go for damage control to safeguard his government on his own in choosing the new faces for his Cabinet and allotting the portfolios aptly as well. He will also be cautious in the appointment of top brass in the government, as he has taken the stampede incidents during the RCB celebrations held in Bengaluru seriously, as he did not want the event to be held in a jiffy, observed the MLA, who is aspiring to be a minister.
