The Student Research Club of students of South Asian Studies, University of Warsaw, has been active continuously for nearly 20 years. It initially operated under the name “Minakshi,” then “Rasamandala,” and currently “Padmaćakra.” The group actively promotes knowledge about India and, more broadly, South Asia. It also participates in initiatives such as the University of Warsaw’s “Crossroads of Cultures” fair (Orientalia) and “Night of Museums.” Over the years, it has organized screenings of Indian films otherwise unavailable to Polish audiences. In the 2023/2024 academic year, it ran an Indological film discussion club aimed at deepening knowledge of South Asian audiovisual culture.
