About the Event

The Play


Inspired by the short story Trishanku written by renowned Hindi author Mannu Bhandari, this Kathak choreographic production is based on the tug of war which every middle generation faces between the traditional values of the previous generation and the progressive/modern outlook of the next generation. The ideal situation is the balance that one has to arrive at, encompassing all the good values of both the previous and present generations and discarding those that hamper the growth of the society.


DIRECTOR/ CHOREOGRAPHER’S NOTE


I tend to pick up subjects for my choreographies, from my own life experiences. It is only when I can feel it from my heart, that I am able to express it in dance.


Trishanku is a story written by the renowned Author Mannu Bhandari. It was written she was bringing up her teenaged daughter. Since I happened to be that daughter, this story has always been very close to my heart.


And it related perfectly to the experiences of my journey from being a daughter of a mother, to becoming a mother of a daughter. This journey which is full of innumerable conflicts and contradictions, made me realize on hindsight that this is the story of every middle generation. How much to break from the past …… how much to take from the future. Is there a perfect balance? Ever?


The Director


Rachana Yadav is the daughter of Smt. Mannu Bhandari and Shri Rajendra Yadav, two eminent names in the world of Hindi literature. She has done post-graduation in mass communication from the Indian Institute of Mass Communication, New Delhi, and is a recipient of Silver Salver Award from the institute. She has also completed her Prabhakar in Kathak from Prayag Sangeet Samiti, Allahabad.

She is often credited as one of the pioneers of the Nayi Kahaani Movement, initiated by authors including Nirmal Verma, Rajendra Yadav, Bhisham Sahni, Kamleshwar etc. Bhandari is one of the post-independence writers who portray women under a new light, as independent and intellectual individuals. Through the subject matter of her narratives, Bhandari highlights the struggles and difficulties women have constantly encountered in the past.
