CHETON-ACHETON (Based on Rabindranath Tagore’s Taser Desh) (2011)
Our present generation is engrossed in a trance. We have created the civilization But running after this civilization, we have now become puppets in its hands, we have Cost our emotions, our inner consciousness. Thus the various characteristics of our mind like the subtle nuances – kindness, compassion are all Cost. We are in a world of pleasure, where we have become two dimensional technical objects. This idea has been drawn parallel to Rabindranath Tagore’s unique Dance Drama ‘Tasher Desh’. Like the cars of’ ‘Tasher Desh’ the present generation too is without emotions, feelings and life. In the dance drama the prince and his friend are the signs of life, here too two subtle emotions love and faith are too characters. They too try to touch the fine lost cords of human emotions tike the prince and his friend though the present day is shrouded in darkness, we wait for a ray of hope and believe that life will again emerge victorious tomorrow.

The village life of Bengal portrays a wide landscape of festivals and celebrations.Bhadu parab, Makar parab are examples of times when villagers get together and enjoy the simple gifts of Nature.The woman folk decorate themselves with nose rings,anklets and various simple ornaments and dance together to express their joy.
The different songs are meant for people of different professions in the society..The farmer holds his plough once again with strong hands,the fisherman rows his boat with a braver heart,the baul pleads to the Lord with sincerest emotions.
