I Might Not Be Able to Change the World, but I Can Definitely Touch the Lives of the People That I Meet - Tagorealmeida.com

A time for people to wake up and connect within themselves to make this place a better world, without having to compromise on their daily needs

(PRWEB) March 1, 2005 -- Tagore was born on 7th October 1968, in GOA -- India. He grew up in lovely GOA and when he was 15 left for overseas.

Tagore spent 9 years in the United Kingdom perusing his higher education in Computer Studies. During this time, Tagore also did various courses in filmmaking, over the weekends, at the Film Makers co-op, in Camden Town, London.

Tagores heart and soul live in a group called 'The Uncultured Company (www.theunculturedcompany.com) that he founded in the early 90s, while still in the UK, however the group lived within Tagores soul while he was merely a schoolboy in GOA. The goal of the group is to help bridge the gap between people. Its more about tolerance and acceptance, so that these can then open the doors for love and peace to flow freely within us all.

His work (poetry) can be read on-line www.goacom.com/tagore . Years ago, Tagore put together 50 of his poems in a form of a book and printed 100 copies of the book. He sent by courier the book to 100 people across the world. People who had inspired him or merely entertained him as he grew up. Right from Japanese composer Kitaro to Steven Spielberg to a few individuals from India. Some wrote back, some called to thank home, while some never bothered. Since then Tagore has been writing poetry, street verses, as he prefers to call them. His work ranges from rebelling out against the system, to his humanitarian cry, to love ballads and last but not least, reflecting his immense sense of spirituality and relationship with the creator.

Besides poetry Tagore writes scripts for films, one of which has been made into a commercial Telugu film. In the midst of the peak of his carrier, Tagore decided to chuck it all in and write his first film. Living with his wonderful folks in GOA, Tagore would write daily from around 10pm to 7am and he did this for about 3 months. Script in hand and with absolutely no idea on how to sell it, or contact in Bollywood, Tagore set of to Mumbai (formerly known as Bombay) and started knocking on doors. Strangely, the day he landed in Mumbai, Tagore did not have a single address of any film director or producer. Several false leads later, Tagore tied up with someone he only refers to as 'the-offbeat-producer Mr. Pravesh Sippy. Months of re-writes (read as 'lets take your original film concept and Bollywood-ize it), the film was sold. One of the leading Film & Television houses in India, NIMBUS COMMUNICATIONS purchased the film, translated it into Telugu (A regional language spoken in Andhra Pradesh -- India), produced the film and got it directed by none other than Suresh Krishna, one of South Indias most respected and well renowned film directors.

Finally, Tagore has 10 books of poems on the Internet that are available for people to read. Should anyone want to use one of these poems, all they need to do is contact Tagore, and it will be arranged. He also runs a website for The Uncultured Company, wherein he hopes to promote his message of secularism in the world. He has also recently launched, on The Uncultured Company site, a quarterly online magazine to further spread the message of Humanity and becoming one with the universe.

Tagore has been on local radio stations in Dubai (Dubai Eye & Radio 4 FM). He has also been written about on the Afternoon paper (Mumbai), Maharashtra Times (Mumbai), Times of India and other newspapers and magazines in GOA, besides a few websites. Tagores group is a non-religious, non-political & non-profit group. Read more about him and his humanitarian work on www.tagorealmeida.com & www.theunculturedcompany.com

Tagore is constantly looking for people/organizations to work with him on his various projects and to work with them on their projects. Folk who stand the fact that we are all one, and people who are longing to spread love and peace. Take this belief, a dose of humanity, a passion for GODs creation and sprinkle it with a dash of music, theater, films, poetry or any other art, and you have Tagore in your team. He can be contacted via e-mail info@tagorealmeida.com
