Kunwar KAMUNIST
There is a reason Bihat-Masnadpur is still called ‘Little Moscow’, a throwback to the times when the USSR was a Communist beacon and this village a hotbed of the Left movement in Bihar. It is the birthplace of comrade Chandrashekhar Singh (1915-76), the torchbearer of Left ideology in this region and a popular CPI leader who put BihatMasnadpur on India’s political map. It is also home to Kanhaiya Kumar. The brash, tambourine-playing, azaadi-seeking young leader loved and reviled in equal measure depending on which side of the political spectrum one stands. An upholder of secularism and democratic traditions, they say. For others, an anti-national and a leader of the ‘tukde-tukde gang’ hell bent on breaking up the country (what he will gain by this, however, they won’t tell). An icon of hope; a symbol of anarchy. A towering leader in the making; an overhyped student activist. Kanhaiya Kumar is all that and more. And he is here to stay.

THE ASTAD
He recently completed 50 momentous years of performing on stage, but for Astad Deboo, it may well have been just another day at work. Born in 1947, this prolific dancer and choreographer has spent decades exploring freedoms of a different kind. At 72, he continues to dance with the energy of a young man and inspires his peers, students, and fans.His early life as a smalltown boy from Jamshedpur, his ride to foreign shores on a cargo ship, his groundbreaking collaborations with artists like Pink Floyd and training under Pina Bausch are the stuff of legend, and yet he remains rooted in the now. Constantly pushing the boundaries of performing arts, he has created new vocabularies of movement. In fact, it would not be an exaggeration to say that Astad Deboo is synonymous with contemporary Indian dance.
