Got to know Bhanu Athiya because Radhika was a college friend . Truly an amazing person Learnt a lot from her-a major influence in my life. In memorium.
Yet another splendid artwork by Debobrata and Team to create such a magnificient documentary work on the artforms breathing in Shantiniketan. Special compliments to the lyricist, composer, singer and dancer presenting the rich traditional Bengali art forms !!
My sincerest compliments to the creative team at Prinseps for bringing out such a well deserved and highly informative audio-visual compilation on the Mural art home to the divine Shantiniketan. It indeed motivates me to plan a special visit to Shantiniketan to explore all the art bhavans and the unique art forms. Truly well researched, well scipted and magnificently cinematographed motion art.
Read his poetry ' smrity satta vabisyat ' during 1972 with help of my friend Pantha Pradip Banerjee stayed now Kolkata.I was heavily influenced his poetry.
মানিক দার শিল্প শিক্ষক বিনোদ বিহারী মুখোপাধ্যায় কে অসংখ্য প্রণাম। অন্ধ হওয়ার পরেও তিনি অনেক সৃষ্টি করে গেছেন। তাঁকে নিয়ে মানিক দার ইনার আই একটি অনবদ্য তথ্যচিত্র।
Interesting! I knew a little of the Richard Burton legacy in relation to the Botanical Gardens near Kolkata, but it was nice to be shown the big picture---specially the contribution of Kolhapur. Where is Ranjit Hoskote located now? I am so glad he has taken an interest in highlighting Bhanu Athaiya's work. I love the bathing gopinis. I wonder why the image of the nun in the cloister is so dark!
