Greenland in
association with Darpani
to present
Gurudev’s Shyama in an innovative and glorious form
Kolkata, July 3, 2012:
India Green Reality Pvt. Ltd., a company that provides real quality
constructions and deluxe living spaces in association with Darpani, a premiere
dance institution, have come up with the distinctive idea of organizing one of
the most notable and distinguished harmonious dramas of Tagore, Shyama – The
Dusky Dame, announced by Amitava Samanta, Director, India Green Reality Pvt.
Ltd. and dance guru Arnab Bandhopadhyay, the founder of Darpani at a Press
Conference.
Shyama is one of the three
dance musicals written by Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore that not only reflects
Tagore’s artistic and philosophical response to both the turbulence and turmoil
of pre-Independence of India but also Hitler’s persecution and maltreatment of
Jews in Germany. The story of Shyama is based on a Buddhist legend,
about which Tagore had written a poem, Parishodh (Repayment), in 1899. This was
what he expanded and developed into the full dance musical Shyama.
Shyama is essentially a
romantic tragedy, though there are two love stories entwined, both of Shyama and
Bajrosen, who are initially both in search of their ideal partners, and that of
the unexpressed, unilateral love Uttiyo has for Shyama which leads Uttiyo
to sacrifice himself for her happiness. Shyama is known to many of the 230
million Bengali-speaking people around the world and many of the songs are also
well-liked and much loved in their own right.
Amitava
Samanta, Director, India Green Reality Pvt. Ltd., said,
“Shyama being Tagore's last key work
for the stage that illustrates the exclusive and matchless permutation of song,
dance and color, we have decided to showcase it in the present ethnicity with a
touch of vibrant and aesthetic customs.”
Arnab Bandhopadhyay, the dance
guru and the creator of Darpani, further added, “The sole aim of portraying Shyama is to
restore the rich cultural heritage of Bengal and to unleash the true spirit of
dance by the amalgam of the classical dance forms and the ever evolving art of
choreography. We want that the grand work piece
of Tagore should be revived whenever feasible reaching millions of hearts every
time so that the ensemble cast of this bona fide, colorful, widescreen film
version should never be forgotten.”
This extraordinary dance musical
drama of Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore, Shyama, would be performed at G.D.
Birla Sabhaghar on July 8, 2012 by Arnab and his troupe (Darpani) who is
believed to have performed in the prestigious Dance festivals earning huge
accolades in the grand presence of eminent and legendary personalities like
Sabyasachi Chakraborty, Sraboni Sen, Satinath Mukhopadhyay , Soumili Biswas and
many others to make the evening unforgettable and remarkable. The artistic and
creative ambience would definitely engrave and leave an everlasting and eternal
impression in the hearts of thousands of people.
