In flood-stricken Pakistan, where an unprecedented monsoon season has killed hundreds of people, the rains now threaten a famed archaeological site dating back 4,500 years.
The ruins of Mohenjo-daro, located in southern Sindh province near the Indus River, and a Unesco world heritage site, are considered among the best preserved urban settlements in south Asia. They were discovered in 1922, and mystery still surrounds the disappearance of its civilisation, which coincided with those of ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia.
The recent flooding has not directly hit Mohenjo-daro but the record-breaking rains have inflicted damage on the ruins, said Ahsan Abbasi, the site’s curator. “Several big walls which were built nearly 5,000 years ago have collapsed because of the monsoon rains,” Abbasi said.
He said dozens of construction workers under the supervision of archaeologists had started the repair work. Abbasi did not give an estimated cost of the damage.
The site’s landmark “Buddhist stupa”, a large hemispherical structure associated with worship, meditation and burial, remains intact, Abbasi said. But the downpours have damaged some outer walls and also some larger walls separating individual rooms or chambers.
Abbasi said the civilisation at Mohenjo-daro, also known as “Mound of the Dead” in the local Sindhi language, built an elaborate drainage system, which had been critical in flooding in the past.

“Narasimhan et al. (2019) argue that the ASI component itself formed in the early 2nd millennium BCE from a mixture of a population associated with the Indus Valley civilization and a population resident in peninsular India.[69] They conclude that one of these two groups may have been the source of proto-Dravidian.[70] An Indus valley origin would be consistent with the location of Brahui and with attempts to interpret the Indus script as Dravidian.[70][71] On the other hand, reconstructed Proto-Dravidian terms for flora and fauna provide support for a peninsular Indian origin.[70][72][73]”

The “Dancing Girl” of Mohenjo-Daro
Dancing Girl is a prehistoric bronze sculpture made in lost-wax casting about c. 2300–1750 BC in the Indus Valley civilisation city of Mohenjo-daro (in modern-day Pakistan),[1] which was one of the earliest cities. The statue is 10.5 centimetres (4.1 in) tall, and depicts a nude young woman or girl with stylized ornaments, standing in a confident, naturalistic pose. Dancing Girl is highly regarded as a work of art.
The statue was excavated by British archaeologist Ernest Mackay in the "HR area" of Mohenjo-daro in 1926,[2] It is now in the National Museum, New Delhi; having been allocated to India at the Partition of India in 1947.

Pooja Hegde's cinematic expedition began in 2016 when she made her grand Bollywood debut with Ashutosh Gowariker's "Mohenjo Daro". Alongside the suave and experienced Hrithik Roshan, Pooja held her own remarkably well, demonstrating her vibrant acting skills through her portrayal of Chaani, the High Priest's daughter.
The film might not have been a commercial hit, but it paved the way for her future career moves. It was her proverbial foot in the door of the Hindi film industry, and the promising actress did not look back from there.
Her next Bollywood venture came in the form of a romantic comedy, Housefull 4, in 2019. A multi-starrer flick directed by Farhad Samji, the film gave her an opportunity to perform in a different genre, proving that she isn't just a one-note actress. This time, her performance was noticed and appreciated, critically and commercially.
In 2020, Pooja shared screen space with some big names in Bollywood once again in a romantic drama, "Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo". Pooja's chemistry with her co-star and her fascinating portrayal of sophisticated elegance worked magic on the screen.
Throughout her Bollywood journey, Hegde showcased her potential to mould into diverse roles, from historical drama to contemporary romance. It was not just her beauty but her talent and versatility that kept audiences enthralled.
The journey of Pooja Hegde is symbolic of her dedication, perseverance, and passion. Despite not having a quintessential 'blockbuster' start, her commitment to her craft and her resilience has led her to become one of the most sought-after actresses in Bollywood.
Pooja Hegde's Bollywood journey continues to be an inspiring one. From her debut film in Mohenjo Daro to her most recent roles, she has constantly evolved and proven her mettle. Here's to the promising actress that is Pooja Hegde and the beautiful journey she is undertaking through Bollywood.
