The Sunday Guardian + Trip to India
Dear Backers,
Darshan recently got some noteworthy publicity. The Sunday Guardian, which is circulated both in London and New Delhi just did a feature on it. I thought i'd share with you all, a glimpse of how the article looked. The attachment to the article is below.
I will be leaving for India on Wednesday, September 9th. Backers can expect that the rewards will start getting prepped and shipped shortly after my return in mid October 2011.
My target is to be in India for a month and get as much headway into the project. Wish me luck and I will be keeping you posted via these kickstarter updates. Alternatively, I will also be updating my blog titled "Ishaara", as frequently as I can with some more behind the scenes action. You can subscribe to the blog here, manjarisharma.wordpress.com
Finally I am requesting you to make sure you fill out the surveys I sent out a week ago. These surveys ask for important information from Backers such as your mailing address, t-shirts size and email address for updates. Without this information, I cannot get your rewards to you, so please fill those out as soon as possible. Many thanks.
Sincerely,
Manjari Sharma
