India is in a dire need to reinvent various art forms which are getting lost due to lack of interest or missing freshness in content. A group of artists in Mumbai have come together to celebrate the essence of words and sound. Pratidhwani Music is the resonating sound of poetry and music where a collective of artists, like musicians, poets, want to give the already-powerful mediums of music and poetry more power to spin conversations. The impact of these arts reach wide and leave a long-lasting impact on the audience like nothing else do.
Their latest event 'Bol Ke Lab Aazaad Hain Tere' was conceptualized to organize a session of poetry and stories to recognize and celebrate the essence of freedom. The event held at Bandra had three writer Divya Prakash Dubey, lyricist-writer Puneet Sharma and writer Divy Nidhi Sharma who collaborated and shared their stories and poetry with the audience.
