Tripura law aspirant reviving and repackaging Sanskrit in a new form

 | 

AGARTALA | AUGUST 23, 2020:

A law aspirant Priyanka Sharma 26, was widely praised for singing the rendition of Rabindra Sangeet in Tripura.

After Priyanka had uploaded a video of herself singing the epic song with the swaralipi ( written notes for Indian classical music) in June, it was shared by a Facebook page "Vedic culture revivalist Sanskar Bharati and Icchepuron" managed by some people from Dharmanagar.

The video has been liked and viewed by over two lakhs, for which she credited her Sanskrit teacher, Dr. Bhanu Sharma.

"Sanskrit is the mother of all languages. At a time when parents try to teach English or Hindi to kids instead of their mother tongue, I believe reviving Sanskrit is a great idea. People should know more about it and folk music, popular classical music like Rabindra Sangeet can be a very good medium", he said.
