It has a strong impact among the audience as the appeal of Bengali folk-drama is undeniable. ‘Bolan’ is a traditional folk drama of Bengal which is mainly celebrated in the month of ‘Chaitra’ (march-april). Geographically, it is prevalent in the mid- northern rural and semi-urban regions of Bengal (Rar Banga area) – mainly in Murshidabad district and some parts of Nadia, Birbhum and Bardwan districts. Although it follows the theatrical procedures, yet it is different from the same because it has no female artists. The male actors impersonate as females and play the part. Like other folk drama ‘Bolan’ is in direct contact with the audience and is often interacted and modified by them. Primarily it narrates mythological themes but now-a-days it narrates contemporary socio-politico-economical and natural issues. As it is performed different contemporary issues of immense interest audiences is deeply integrated with it and try to assimilate the messages of social importance from it. And in this way Mass (traditional) media plays an important role in shaping public opinion and forming a platform of exchange between the administration and the people they serve.

  • 101 Chapter-Ii Early Phase of Satirical Art in Bengal
    CHAPTER-II EARLY PHASE OF SATIRICAL ART IN BENGAL 2.1 INTRODUCTION In this chapter, the research deals with some essential quarries of origin of satirical impulse in art and activities in the 19th century Calcutta, as the market for art started expanding, thanks to the processes of urbanization, the rural folk traditions of pat painting transformed in the hands of the migrant artists to produce water-colours (they used gouache and tempera) of Hindu gods and goddesses as well as to address the unprecedented diversity of urban life. As a result, many of these Kalighat paintings (as the art-practice came to be known) described, using their signature bold lines and colorations, some of the city‟s most popular scandals. Most importantly, they took satirical pot-shots at the sanctimoniousness of the city‟s middle-classes. One can, in fact, trace the obsession with the dandyish and dissolute Babu figure in the early 20th century art to many of the searing images produced by these patuas. The Bat-tala prints and wood-cuts also explored the same themes, targeting the lascivious courtesan and the effeminate Babu with equal ardour. (Sardesai:2003) The historical study of the evolution of satirical images cannot be done without including the patachitras, an art that had an exclusive position in the world of art in Bengal. While speaking of patachitras what instantly comes to our mind is the school of kalighat patachitras. Satire has been a part of traditional culture in Bengal since a long time. The various traditional practises like bolan in rahr Bengal, gombhira of north Bengal, jhumur incorporated in their performances an element of satire.

  • The Bengalis: a Thousand Years
    Bengalis Thousand Years 8670/ 021116 The BengAlis: A ThousAnd YeArs Jawhar Sircar The last few days of a century that also happen to be at the end of a whole millennium, are bound to stir a strange excitement in even the most placid person. The two most expected feelings that hold their sway can perhaps be summarized as: introspection and expectation — drawing a balance sheet of the past as also trying to gauge what the future holds. Such an exercise can cover not only a single person or his immediate concerns; it may as well cover his locality, his state or nation and may be stretched to entire humanity. The constraints of my acquaintance and knowledge hardly qualify me to scan any group higher or bigger than my own people: the Bengalis. Even in this, my limitations now plague me more than my enthusiasm to try out such a review — but these notwithstanding; the sheer thrill of initiating an animated adda on the subject overpowers me. At the beginning, let me make it clear that I do not have the audacity to try to cover a thousand years in just a few pages: hence I will concentrate only on certain significant periods or issues, for the sake of presenting a viewpoint. So let us begin: are the Bengalis a thousand years old? Or even more? Historians tell us about our history during the Pala- Sena period, which would give us about 1250 years to be proud of, but if we include the great Sasanka, we could be share-holders in a great concern that goes back fourteen centuries.
