Cultural calendar: Art shows, music concerts & docu-fiction

Gallery Sumukha marks its 30th anniversary with In Search Of The Perfect Image, a solo show by sculptor G Ravinder Reddy. The exhibition presents five new works – a striking portrait of Parvati and four wall‑mounted reliefs – that probe ideas of beauty, identity and the human form.

At the KNMA in Delhi, the twin shows In‑Rhythm and Inheritors of Earth invite visitors to slow down and look anew. In‑Rhythm juxtaposes the geometric abstraction of Bice Lazzari with the lyrical lines of Nasreen Mohamedi, while Inheritors of Earth treats plants as active participants rather than mere backdrop.

Music lovers can catch Ragas to Reels at the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre in Mumbai, where pianist‑composer Utsav Lal weaves Hindustani ragas together with Irish reels and jigs, creating a vibrant cross‑cultural conversation.

The Incidents at Pawgur docu‑fiction at the Bangalore International Centre blurs fact and fiction, following two researchers and a local explorer as they investigate mysterious lights over Pavagada, mixing colonial archives, prehistoric landscapes and speculative intrigue.

Finally, Altaf Raja Live at Phoenix Marketcity in Pune offers a nostalgic trip back to the 1990s, with the singer’s iconic Urdu shayari and cassette‑era melodies reviving the era’s heartfelt anthems.
