SYNOPSIS -

This is a story of a miraculous human being. He was born with beautiful golden hair on his head. His father Haju Pramanik was a poor barber in village Kushita. Incidentally Haju came to know the mystery behind the golden hair – “Clotted blood from the child’s had transform into gold”. Haju repaid all his debt by selling that gold and thereby made the greatest blunder of his life. This news spread like fire and ultimately reached the “Jaigirdar” of the locality. The “Jaigirdar” kidnapped the child and nurtured him tenderly to acquire all the gold. The child was named Manikchand. One way Manikchand realized the truth and stubbornly refused to provide blood from his head. The “Jaigirdar” sentenced him to jail but could not confine him ultimately. Sultan Shihabuddin and Begum Ashmantara rescued  him and a new episode began. In her quest to  become the sovereign queen of the universe Begum Ashmantara  wanted to get involved in a number of battles  but Manikchand vehemently refused  to provide gold for warfare and said that he is only prepared to offer gold in the wellbeing of the deprived, distressed and helpless people of the universe .
And then ----?

Synopsis of      “KOBIAL TUNI”

It all started  with  some informal improvisation form Upendrakishore Roychowdhury’s collection of “Tuntunir Galpo” . There was not  even a formal script but the budding  artists of Junior Sayak started creating  one after another scene from the story itself using their imagination and intelligence . Spontaneous dialogues and songs were magically amalgamated with dance and dramatic movements and within time span of 10 days it took the shape of a theatrical production   . It was astonishing ……… it was amazing.
                                                                                                          
The little children were massively excited. Design of dress, light set and puppetry to give out a colorful and gorgeous look and suddenly discovered that a cute and fairy bird “Kabial Tuni” twittering on my window.
