Little India is a place not only frequented by tourists but also by Singaporeans who go there for food, shopping and entertainment. It is embedded in stories that go back two centuries and have contributed to the heritage of the place. Join acclaimed filmmaker K. Rajagopal as he explores the myth, history and tales of Little India through three films: a man who shirks off the burden of being a coolie to build a business empire; an event that transformed a swampy land to a historical landmark; and a place which is lost but where memories linger on vividly in the reels of life and cinema.*First 10 individuals to sign up and attend the film screening on 18 or 19 January, will receive a complimentary Henna Art service by SyraSkins. *Terms and Conditions apply.ABOUT K.
