Dhundiraj Govind Phalke's black-and-white silent film Raja Harischandra was screened in Mumbai on 3 May, 1913. It is a tale of a righteous Indian king who never told a lie. Many say this was the filmic seed that spawned a billion-dollar industry. One of the most famous scenes is the bathtub sequence where the king comes to call on his wife Taramati. She is in the tub with attendants and they are all drenched, their saris and blouses clinging to their bodies - but they are all in fact male actors dressed as women. Phalke went on to make 95 full-length films, but he died in penury. As Nasreen Rehman, a historian of South Asian cinema, points out, the Hindi language film industry of Mumbai was not known as Bollywood for many years. "The term Bollywood is an invention of the late 20th Century, after Bombay cinema caught the imagination of the West."

Nestled in the Lighthouse Reef Atoll of Belize is the Great Blue Hole, a large submarine vertical cave that measures 984 feet in diameter and 407 feet deep. With its beautiful, clear water and the variety of wild marine life residing in its depths, the enormous blue hole is a popular scuba diving destination. Today's blue holes, which are found all across the world, were formed from erosion during previous ice ages when the Earth's sea level was significantly lower than it is now. Although the Great Blue Hole is most definitely great, it is not the deepest. That title is held by Dean's Blue Hole, located in the Bahamas, with a depth of 663 feet. For a demonstration on the magnitude of its size, check out Guillaume Nery, world champion freediver, as he does a freefall dive inside the hole in this video clip shot by fellow freediving champion, Julie Gautier.

Twenty Facts About the Taj Mahal Taj MahalTaj Mahal India’s most emblematic monument, the Taj Mahal, is probably one of the best known structures in the world. Built in white marble by Emperor Shah Jahan, in memory of his wife Mumtaz after her death, the Taj Mahal is famous world over as the monument of love. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Taj Mahal is shrouded in myth and there have been many legends which have cropped up over the years. Here are ten interesting facts about this world famous monument: The construction of the Taj Mahal began in 1632 and was completed in 1653. It took a total of twenty two years to complete the construction of this monument. The architecture of the Taj Mahal is a combination of Indian, Persian and Islamic styles of architecture. The name of the architect of the Taj Mahal is Ahmed Lahauri. The Taj Mahal was Shah Jahan’s imagination of Mumtaz’s home in paradise. Around 20,000 people worked day and night for twenty two years to complete construction of the Taj Mahal. The cost of construction of the Taj Mahal was around Rs.320 million. The Taj Mahal was constructed using the best quality marble from Rajasthan, Tibet, Afghanistan and China. At different times of the day the Taj Mahal appears to be in a different colour. Some believe that these changing colours depict the changing moods of a woman. The Taj Mahal is one of the wonders of the world and is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There was a popular myth that Shah Jahan was planning to construct a black Taj Mahal across the Yamuna, this is not true. Another popular myth around the Taj Mahal is that after the construction of the Taj Mahal, Shah Jahan cut off the hands of all the workers so that such a structure could not be built again. Fortunately, this is not true. The Taj Mahal has a mosque in its premises, which is why the Taj Mahal is closed on Fridays and only those going for customary prayers are permitted inside the Taj Mahal. Shah Jahan approached the Taj Mahal on a boat which would sail down the River Yamuna which ran behind the Taj Mahal. By the late 19th century, the Taj Mahal had been defaced by the British soldiers who chiseled out precious stones from the walls of the monument. At the end of the 19th century, British Viceroy, Lord Curzon, ordered a restoration of the monument and also gifted a large lamp which hangs in the interior chambers of the Taj Mahal. In 2000, an Indian writer P.N. Oak claimed that the Taj Mahal was actually a ShivTemple and filed a petition with the Supreme Court of India to excavate the site of the Taj to look for proof. His petition was rejected by the Supreme Court. In 2001, the UNESCO documented more than two million visitors to the Taj Mahal. India’s’ Nobel Laureate, Rabindra Nath Tagore, referred to the Taj Mahal as a “tear drop on the cheek of time”. Calligraphy on the tomb of Mumtaz identifies and praises her. The four minarets of the Taj Mahal have been constructed slightly outside of the plinth so that in case the minarets fell, they would fall away and not on the main structure. After his death, Shah Jahan was laid to rest in the Taj Mahal besides the tomb of his wife Mumtaz.
