When the Mahatma turned into the muse

January 14, 2014 10:27

The 'Bapugeetika' Project is holding its first ever press conference at the Deputy Speaker's Hall, Vitthalbhai Patel Bhawan, Rafi Marg, New Delhi on January 16.

The project highlights an anthology of poetry set to music, sung in 14 Indian languages.

The songs have been penned by giants of Indian literature like Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore, Subramanyam Bharti, Masti Venkatesh Iyengar, Subhadrakumari Chauhan, Ray Prolu Subbarao and Amrita Pritam.

Incidentally, Gandhiji was the muse for all these brilliant wordsmiths.
