About Manmohini: Dedicated this song to the courtesans of our country, Manmohini was a story of love - love for music and dance. Inspite of how they were subjugated by the conservative society, their contribution to the cultural heritage of our country was paramount.
Pratikatha was developed and premiered for the inaugural edition of SONGLAP on 6th December in Kolkata as a part of our Collaborative Project Lab, jointly curated and hosted with UPAJ India.
