Dark clouds gone, Rs 38-cr aerostat becomes opening show’s silver lining

2 years ago
RITU SARINNEW DELHI, OCTOBER 3 PROBABLY the most expensive prop used for any sporting event anywhere in the world, it was pitched by the cultural committee as the “wow” factor of the 2010 Commonwealth Games opening and closing ceremonies. And it was.Imported from a British firm at a cost of Rs 38 crore, the aerostat weathered many storms before it was tethered at the Jawaharlal Nehru stadium this evening. First, it was endless hours of bureaucratic discussions in New Delhi; then thunder and lightning marred its testing in Liverpool, and finally a number of problems crippled its operational use during the opening ceremony. But few spectators realised what else the aerostat was meant to do today. As it turned out, till just a few hours before the gala opening, key technical heads were still uncertain whether they should take the calibrated risk of raising the aerostat. And whether the aerostat should be raised before or after the arrival of the dignitaries. There was reportedly word from Rashtrapati Bhavan that ideally, the helium-filled balloon should be raised after the arrival of President Pratibha Patil. On a calm, windless evening, the sight of the 80m×40m balloon rising to the level of the highest tier at the stadium was indeed spectacular.As the organisers now admit, the presence of the gigantic prop in the stadium’s central arena presented enormous problems. There were written security clearances to be procured from various agencies like the IntelligenceContinued on page 2 Dark clouds gone, Rs 38-cr aerostat becomes opening show’s silver lining Bureau and the CPWD.Then with all the security and time constraints, the organisers realised that the areostat could not “fly” the 40-odd drummers and large-sized puppets attached to its belly. Eventually, live drummers performed on the ground as the puppets remained tethered to the aerostat.The worst aerostat crisis, perhaps, was the fact that two months before the opening ceremony, the lighting designer, Durhan Marenghi, was asked to leave New Delhi in rather dramatic circumstances. With the key designer gone, nobody knew how to operate the lights on the reflectors hung on the aerostst, forced to leave them as static props during the ceremony. The helium bird was also involved in a serious accident, with several of its “sausages” or inner balloons being damaged by rainfall. Experts said the aerostat had lost lost one-third of its buoyancy and, therefore its resale value as well.After the Games end, the aerostat will present another set of problems — on what is to be done with it. The cultural committee is understood to have proposed that it should be taken around the country as a landmark exhibit but government officials want to keep it in the safe custody of the Sports Authority of India. Meanwhile, new projection videos are being prepared and special effects chosen for the use of the balloon for the closing ceremony.  more...

Semenya out of Commonwealth Games, Ticket Sales Poor, by Alfons Juck, Note by Larry Eder

2 years ago
The Commonwealth Games  has a long and storied past. The matches in athletics alone have been amazing. The 2010 version, which opens this weekend, is having both media  and security problems. Neither of those have helped ticket sales, which are at a paltry 200,000 out of an estimated 1.7 million tickets available.Security concerns have kept many athletes away. While UK athletics and many other teams have kept a stiff upper lip, elite athletes have several concerns: security issues, the absolute exhaustion many face at the end of a ten month season, and how to prepare for 2011-2012.India has huge potential in the global sporting world. They have had some outstanding athletes in track & field, and I believe we will see many more to come. They apparently understand cricket there as well, which, I assume, like American baseball, is a wonderful excuse to watch a sporting event while consuming adult beverages in a warm climate.  more...

Commonwealth Games venues to be ready by Dec

3 years ago
SURESH KALMADI, the chief of New Delhi Commonwealth Games 2010 moved to combat the criticism caused by the delay in construction of the Commonwealth Games venues and cost overruns, by promising to complete all projects by the December 2009. While speaking to the media, Kalmadi said, “I’m confident that all New Delhi venues will be ready by the end of December.” He further added, “I assure you venues will be ready. They’ll be then put through test events and all problems sorted out six months before the Commonwealth Games are to take place.” The 2010 Commonwealth Games will be held in Delhi from between October 3-14, 2010. While speaking, Kalmadi was found very exciting. “These games will showcase India to the world,” he added. His enthusiasm was so high that he promised to overtake 2006 Melbourne Commonwealth. After the Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) had expressed its anguish over the delay of work on Games infrastructure three months ago, Kalmadi admitted that the delay was caused primarily due to the escalating price of construction materials like steel and cement. But he also assured that the condition was successfully handled. Kalmadi is also the president of the Indian Olympic Association. After Kuala Lumpur organised the Commonwealth Games in 1998, New Delhi is the second Asian city to host the Games. It would be the second major sports event in India after the 1982 Asian Games. Mohinder Singh Gill, the Sports Minister of India also confirmed that the construction work would be closely monitored to meet the proposed deadline. He said, “While there is a lot to be done, I’m sure we’ll be ready in time. We’ll be ready, just like an Indian marriage where things look chaotic but eventually things happen smoothly.” Kalmadi said the Queen’s Baton relay would start from London in the first week of November and travel to 71 Commonwealth nations and territories before arriving in New Delhi. He also declared that Queen Elizabeth II would present the baton to an Indian athlete at Buckingham Place, from where the relay would go to all Commonwealth countries and territories. The baton would visit every state in India too.  more...
