Robbed at Gunpoint in Johannesburg, South Africa

I never thought I would wake up in bed to a gun at my face. I thought that sh*t only happens in the movies.

I wrote more extensively about my experience in this blog post:

http://www.passportheavy.com/robbed-a...

I travel the world to highlight the beauty in places that might not often be shown. I really want to show the world how beautiful Africa is as a continent. It is the blood that runs through my veins. Before I go any deeper, I just want say that Jo’burg is not all of Africa.

I got love for South Africa and I met so many dope people. It’s unfortunate because I never intended to release negative media on any destination, let alone, a place in Africa. I’ve felt compelled to do so because first of all, I create content as if I am making it for my friends and I want people to have a good time and be safe doing so.

I am glad that in a situation like this, I am not sponsored and I don’t have to make some canned ass response or not even talk about it. I would feel bad about putting people who follow me in danger without knowing all the details.

There is so much beauty in this place but this devil is alive here as well.

Sorry for all the doom and gloom in this post but this was my reality for Jo’burg and it’s worth sharing my very real experience of it so that others can be aware and take even more precautions if they choose to travel that way.

If you have questions about robbery you ask on my IG I will answer what I can.

Making things that people love | Srijan Mahajan | TEDxSBSC

What does the art, music, films & products we love most have in common? It’s not technical prowess or expert craftsmanship but this inexplicable feeling they evoke, something we can’t quite articulate but know exists.

Srijan, a musician turned entrepreneur talks about leveraging emotion and putting oneself out there to create things that people love. Playing music since he was 8, Srijan has played over a 1000 concerts around the world taking over drumming duties for bands such as Parikrama, Shubha Mudgal and Koshish, Half Step Down, Cyanide and FuzzCulture at prestigious venues such as the Kennedy Centre in Washington, the Esplanade Concert Hall in Singapore and at the Music Matters Main Stage, apart from sharing the stage with icons such as Iron Maiden, Megadeth and Porcupine Tree. In 2012, he co-founded Studio Fuzz which has been the mecca for artists and film makers to help them realise their musical dreams.

In addition to his musical career, Srijan co-founded, Pause, a platform for specialist mental health services by artists and for artists. Recognising the need for this service in India, Srijan Mahajan and Ankur Kampani founded Pause in 2021. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

The intensity of the action epic “The Woman King,” starring Viola Davis and now in theaters, is balanced out with moments of levity, particularly in this training montage that sets up two key characters.

Nawi (Thuso Mbedu) has been dumped by her father at the palace in the Kingdom of Dahomey in 19th-century Africa. She is taken in and trained to become a part of a group of female soldiers. The woman leading the drills is Izogie (Lashana Lynch), whom Nawi ultimately tries to emulate.

“We’ve seen training montages before and they’re always fun and exciting,” the director Gina Prince-Bythewood said, narrating the scene. “What is going to make this one different?” She said putting the focus on the story of female warriors was “the element we haven’t seen.”

Prince-Bythewood’s approach, one she employed in her previous action film, “The Old Guard,” was to have actors perform their own stunts. In this sequence, that means performers have to pull off a flip in a couple of wrestling scenes. First, it’s Lynch flipping Mbedu, which Prince-Bythewood said came with a caveat: Mbedu would only agree to being flipped six times. But apparently the sixth time was the charm.

“You see it, she gets trucked,” Prince-Bythewood said.
The segment where Nawi gets to pull the same maneuver on Ode (Adrienne Warren), a fellow trainee, came with a surprise.

“The beauty of that moment, is at the end of the wrestling, Ode shoves Nawi,” Prince-Bythewood said. “That was not scripted. That was two actors so in the moment.”
