On the wonderful occasion of International Women’s Day, AIMA is organizing Pragati, a conclave consisting of a panel discussion and a quiz on 26th March at Hotel Le Meridien, Delhi. Quizmaster Ajay poonia will be hosting the quiz. Inviting participation from women from corporates, public sector, academia and students. Registration and other details in the poster below. And here’s a review of a thrilling edition of Pragati 2 years ago.
Some questions from previous editions of the quiz. Try to answer these in comments-
- In 1993, she was offered a role in a Jurassic Park but she refused as the role was small and of less consequence, not befitting to her stature then. Who is this Indian actress?
- The grandfather wanted to name her Siddhima, but the mother had other ideas. While she was pregnant with the daughter, she was reading a novel by Leo Tolstoy and thus named her after the titular heroine of the novel. Who am I talking about?
- The British called her a ‘dangerous anarchist’ and the ‘notorious Parsee lady’ with some revolutionary ideas in her head. Who is she?
