Love is the lifeblood of the Gurudev’s songs — be it love for nature, for human beings or for what lies beyond, feels Preeta Mathur, who runs Ank Theatre along with husband Dinesh Thakur. To highlight this love, which forms the fabric of Rabindranath Tagore’s songs, and understand the changing expressions of his journey, Mathur decided that these facets should be presented to people in a way they can understand. Ravindranjali, which premieres in the city this Friday, highlight’s Tagore’s journey through his poetry translated in Hindi along with songs and dances.
