“There is no end to promotion of Art and Culture in India. Indian Music, Art and Culture heritage is the biggest and the widest in the World, but some of the art leaders could create a wonderful place for themselves in the history and Rabindranath Tagore is one of them” reminded Sandeep Marwah President of Marwah Studios and Director of Asian Academy of Film And Television on the celebration of 150th anniversary of the Guru at Noida Film City.
Rabindranath Tagore was a Bengali Poet, novelist, musician, painter and playwright who reshaped Bengali literature and music. As author of Gitanjali with its profoundly sensitive, fresh and beautiful verse, he was the first non-European to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1913. His poetry in translation was viewed as spiritual, and this together with his mesmerizing persona gave him a prophet-like aura in the west. His elegant prose and magical poetry still remain largely unknown outside the confines of Bengal.
AAFT is one place where along with films and television business, education and training all the arts are promoted including paintings, sculpture, dance, music, writing, singing, drama and art of speaking.
