Juhi Babbar Soni shared a post from her Instagram account highlighting her participation in the Amar Ujala Samwad event in Lucknow, which brought together a remarkable blend of political leaders, cultural voices, and sports icons in a setting brimming with thoughtful dialogue and a shared commitment to the performing arts; her presence added a compelling dimension to the discussions, especially around the evolving impact of live arts in today’s world.

Event Highlights

At the high-profile gathering, notable speakers such as Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Shri Yogi Adityanath, Global Holistic Health Guru Dr. Mickey Mehta, Cabinet Minister Baby Rani Maurya, and professional boxers Vijendra Singh and Nikhat Zareen were present. These eminent figures shared their insights on varied subjects, reflecting the event’s rich tapestry of discussions that spanned politics, health, and sports. The event was not just about speeches; it provided a platform for live, dynamic conversation between the audience and the speakers.

Juhi Babbar Soni, whose association with Amar Ujala goes back several years, took the stage with an air of gratitude and purpose. Recalling one of her earlier memorable moments, she mentioned how Amar Ujala had played an essential role in showcasing her play, ‘With Love, Aap Ki Saiyaara,’ during their 75th-anniversary celebrations. The play’s journey from metropolitan centers to cities like Kanpur, Dehradun, Bareilly, and Moradabad deeply resonated with her, fulfilling her dream of reaching broader audiences.

Live Arts And Cinema

During a fascinating conversation with renowned Shaayar Azhar Iqbal, Juhi delved into the distinct worlds of live theater and cinema. She pointed out that while cinema presents a pre-recorded narrative, theater offers an immersive live experience that thrives on the direct interaction between the audience and the performers. Juhi’s insightful reflections underscored her belief in the enduring value of live performances, even as digital content continues to dominate the entertainment landscape.

Adding another layer of relevance, Juhi expressed her concerns about the surge of objectionable content on OTT platforms. She emphasized the need for responsible content consumption, urging OTT subscribers to choose programming that not only entertains but aligns with family values and cultural longevity. Her remarks, echoed by those familiar with her work, emphasized that live arts have a unique ability to foster genuine connections, something that pre-recorded digital formats sometimes lack.

A Proud Association

Juhi’s connection with Amar Ujala is more than professional; it is personal and deeply meaningful. She recalled her earlier collaboration with the newspaper during its milestone 75th-anniversary celebrations. That partnership helped bring her creative work to life across various cities, thus breaking away from the conventional cosmopolitan circuits. Expressing her gratitude, she acknowledged Shri Vinod Agnihotri for inviting her to the event, marking yet another chapter in her ongoing dialogue with one of India’s leading media houses.

Her long-standing relationship with Amar Ujala not only highlights her commitment to the arts but also celebrates the role played by credible journalism in fostering cultural discourse. The event, with its blend of political gravitas and artistic expression, allowed for the convergence of diverse viewpoints and the reaffirmation of traditional art forms in a modern setting.

Looking Ahead

The discussions at the Amar Ujala Samwad event have set a tone for the future of live arts in India. With active participation from influential figures and artists like Juhi Babbar Soni, there is renewed energy in promoting live theater and cultural narratives that are both engaging and thoughtful. The dialogue about the differences between live performances and digital entertainment reflects a broader debate in the entertainment sector, where authenticity and immediate engagement are increasingly valued by audiences.
