I, still remember after the Lunch break……we used to have our theory classes… we enter with full Energetic …..but God knows it becomes Hepazitic….and we realize to accompany into that atmosphere which react as a “A Fishing Net”…...and of course our eyes remembers … The Dreams of Night…..waiting to get over the time….. & we just rush to the FAMOUSLY known as Vishnu,. “The CHAI Walla”
The Theory classes comprises of great sounding ….. Words of Aesthetics, History of Indian Art, Chinese Art, and Western Art….Great name of Artists which confuses our mind and we get tired …….and went to have” CHAI”…… This words sounds simple……..but lots of things happen here.
Basically we are not so much interested to have chai….. but the atmosphere creates A Lots of nuisance Discussion about the Lectures , Art, Culture ,& Politics and we used to recall our mind……….. which truly happen in this Environment.




GRAIN (After the 5pm)
GRAIN describes the another word of SUPPER, which were described by the college students.
Students started seeing watches when the time comes of Dispersal…… I, still remembered when the clock strikes at 5:00 In early evening…. The time when LOTS OF RATS used to jump in our stomach….and we say to our friends……..abey chal khari –sing lete hai…….aur Vishnu ki Chhelli Chai pite hai……….
These precious words are still remembered ……..and pressurize our mind to think Always Different.

Flashy attire, gorgeous masks, constant beatings of drums, forceful gestures of the dancers – this is what you can see in a Purulia Chau dance performance, one of the many folk dances of India. It is colorful and mind boggling form of art that has earned worldwide acclaim over the years. Purulia Chau dance, which used to be performed by the people of Purulia during Sun festival in the month of Chaitra of Hindu calender, is now to be seen during other festivals in different periods of the year.

Purulia Chau dance has its roots in the Chau dance performed by the tribal people inhabiting in the Mayurbhanj princely state of Orissa. The tribal population performed Chau in village squares or in temples as part of their celebration and it has been the exclusive style of folk dance of the tribal people for decades. With the passage of time, new ideas and forms were adopted by the artists and gradually three styles of Chau evolved according to the district names where Chau had been practiced. The three divisions of Chau dance are the Seraikella Chau, Purulia Chau, and the Mayurbhanj Chau, each having distinct features of its own.

Purulia Chau of Bengal is marked by stylized masks and flashy dresses that the dancers wear during the performance. Accompanied by drums and other stringed instruments like sarangi, the Purulia Chau dancers make forceful gestures as they enact the vigorous gait of animals or the characters from epics.

The colorful Chau dancers have mesmerised millions of art lovers through out the world. Have you watched it ? If not, then browse the photo gallery of Picturesindia to see the colorful images of Chau dance till you watch the live performance.
