Dear Mam/Sir,
On the occasion of the International Mother Language Day, we invite you with family and friends to an evening of cultural performance and audio visual decor.
By celebrating 'Bhasha' we seek to commemorate the martyrs of 21st February, 1952, Dhaka, who stood against oppressive cultural dictates, gave their lives for it and thereby made a bold statement asserting the right of the people to foster their mother languages. The UoH Bengali community with the assistance of the entire University of Hyderabad fraternity hereby pays homage to the love and deep attachment of the people to their mother languages all over the world.
We reiterate that the events of 1952 erstwhile East Pakistan is not an isolated incident of a particular location but is a well-spring of inspiration to all the people all over the world engaged in preserving their mother language cultures against ever increasing monolingual onslaught – this is our claimer.
The program would consist of an ensemble of songs, elocutions, musicals and drama narrating the trajectory of South Asian performative forms, with special focus on the Eastern part of it, seeking to bring out their wider connections with the diverse cultural traditions of the world; without which the thriving of the former is inconceivable.
Please have look at the trailer of a small documentary we are making.
