Sanskar TV brings exclusive shows Of Ganga Aarti everyday at 5:50 PM Yamuna Aarti everyday at 4.45PM
Mumbai June 24, 2006: It is the union of cosmic energy with physical being. It is the meeting of spirituality with eternal power. It is an expression of ether on earth. This surreal act fo surrender is shown with chants and hymns exclusively on Sanskar TV-The Channel of India.
In spite of the waves of change taking place every minute, the core of the Indian belief in its interconnectedness of life remains unchanged. It is a simple act of thanksgiving when we offer our gratitude and place a lit earthen lamp in a small cup made out of leaves along with a few petals of fresh flowers. This beautiful island of fire, life and fragrance is then put onto the life sustaining waters of the Ganges at the culmination of the Ganga Aarti. Even today this act is carried out every day at Harkipaudi in Haridwar and it is a standing testimony to this immutable undercurrent of Indian thought. This is the town where the Ganga enters the plains.
Sanskar TV, in its committeemen to India, exclusively brings you this moment of thanks giving and sense of gratitude to the eternal everyday as Ganga Aarti at 5:50 PM only on Sanskar.
Before Ganga Aarti is the time for Yamuna Aarti everyday on Sanskar TV at 4:45 PM in Mathura. It is the land where Krishna performed his cosmic leela or play. After he was born in the prison cell of Mathura, his father Vasudev aided by several celestial forces stole him out of Mathura, across the raging river Yamuna and into the house of Nand in Gokul. The river Yamuna is intimately connected to Lord Krishna’s pastimes. The Lord Krishna sanctified the River Yamuna from the beginning of His transcendental pastimes in the world. While His father Vasudeva was crossing the Yamuna with baby Lord Krishna for a safe place at Gokul on the other bank of the river from Mathura, the Lord little foot fell down in the river, and by the dust of His lotus feet the river at once became sanctified.
Sanskar TV is a spirituality channel that imparts insight into humanity and goodwill. It is a free to air channel on Thaicom – 3.

National Geographic launches ‘Postcards from Hong Kong’ with Ridhi Dogra
New series explores the city’s hidden gems and vibrant contrasts, premiering 28 March.
MUMBAI: Ridhi Dogra just sent a postcard from Hong Kong that’s worth framing because when a bustling metropolis reveals its quiet trails and timeless traditions, even the skyline takes a back seat. National Geographic has unveiled Postcards from Hong Kong, a refreshing travel series hosted and curated by actor Ridhi Dogra. Produced by National Geographic Creative Works in collaboration with the Hong Kong Tourism Board, the show offers an intimate, Indian traveller’s perspective on one of Asia’s most iconic cities, moving beyond its glittering harbour and skyscrapers to uncover serene beaches, scenic hiking trails and deep cultural traditions.
Across three visually rich episodes, Ridhi journeys through contrasting sides of Hong Kong. The first episode takes her on a quieter path of self-discovery to places like Sai Kung, Big Wave Bay, Dragon’s Back, Tai O, Ngong Ping, Po Lin Monastery and the Tian Tan Buddha. The second episode dives into the city’s energetic side, from the bustling streets of Causeway Bay to Happy Valley Racecourse, Michelin-starred spots and luxury shopping at Landmark.
Ridhi Dogra said, “Being part of Postcards from Hong Kong with Nat Geo was a deeply enriching experience. What I love about this journey is that it goes beyond the obvious; it’s not just about the skyline or the speed of the city but about the stories that live in its quieter corners.”
A National Geographic India spokesperson added, “With Postcards from Hong Kong, we set out to go beyond the familiar and explore the city through a more intimate, human lens.”
Hong Kong Tourism Board director of South Asia Puneet Kumar noted, “Postcards from Hong Kong is a reflection of meaningful storytelling that brings the city to life in an immersive way. It beautifully captures the diversity and spirit that define Hong Kong.”
Blending travel, culture and personal storytelling, the series celebrates Hong Kong as a city of contrasts where modern life meets tradition and every corner holds a story waiting to be discovered. It premieres on 28 March at 8 pm on the National Geographic Channel and will also stream on JioHotstar.
In a world of hurried travel reels, Postcards from Hong Kong slows things down just enough to let viewers truly see the city not just its lights, but its layers, proving that the best souvenirs are the stories you bring home.
