Yeh Hai Life
http://yehhailife.wordpress.com
Yeh Hai Life! is a blog with a view from the crossroads, where India meets the World, and the World meets India. Celebrating India and Life in all their colors.
Founded by filmmakers Genevieve Castelino and Nadja K. Rutkowski, it was born on a trip to India to research their next film (based on the agrarian crisis in India where over 200,000 farmers have committed suicide in the past decade).
Amidst the stark statistics, doom and despair in our research, upon our return, we found and realized that there’s a new Indian generation full of hope, aspiration, inspiration, determination, and dreams. Yeh Hai Life was founded on the grounds of this new hope of making the most of life, as it is what you make of it.
Yeh Hai Life! translated from Hindi literally means This Is Life! Like most Indian phrases, it cuts both ways – Life is Great! or Life Sucks!
Yeh Hai Life has available Tees For Vidarbha at www.yehhailife.com where the proceeds will support farmer’s families affected by suicide in the Vidarbha’s cotton belt region in Maharashtra, India.
