One of the most often forgotten things about Australia was its relatively modern war with emus – dubbed the fitting “The Great Emu War of 1932” – which it famously lost. Against emus. Birds. Which cannot fly.
There have been several instances, in all fields, where a certain element is introduced to the world but it flies under the radar or is even outright berated or jeered, even though it might be pioneering, exploring, or unlocking a new genre that nobody could articulate.

India is a land of cultural plurality where every region celebrates its uniqueness through art, dance, and tradition. Among the many lesser-known but deeply rooted dance forms is Chhau Nritya, a performative art from Eastern India that intertwines ritual, mythology, and theatrical grandeur.
