  • Performed by the girls from Nijoloy Home, Rabindranath Tagore's Chandalika (The Untouchable Girl) is one of the phenomenal works of the noble laureate Rabindranath Tagore portraying the diverse emotional shades and colours of Prakriti (the Untouchable Girl), who after repeated insults from high caste girls falls in love with Buddhist monk Ananda who asks her for water, telling her that all humanity is equal, so her touch cannot be impure. She convinces her mother, Maya (Performed by Anurekha herself) to use the super natural powers of untouchable rituals to draw Ananda into her web of desire. But when he arrives, Prakriti realizes that her love for him is only a symbol of freedom she has achieved through him. This production has been exclusively choreographed by Anurekha Ghosh for the girls from Nijoloy Home. Anurekha and her team (Debojit Mukherjee and Malabi Chowdhury) provided extensive training in the form of traditional Rabindra nritya and its contemporary idiom to the girls over a period of two months.
    The musical score of Chandalika features the solo vocals of the maestro Smt Swagatalakshmi Dasgupta who has composed and created the score.
    A joint venture of Women Interlink Foundation,Learning System and NATMANDIR.
