Three Women
What happens when a time-travelling, sultry ghost of Kadambari Devi (Rabindranath Tagore’s sister-in-law) whizzes across centuries to guide two of Tagore’s fictional characters, Charu and Bimala, to get better outcomes in love and life? Inspired by three of Tagore’s heroines, this musical, set to folk-pop beats with live singing and Manipuri dancing, has reached international heights, soon to become a cross-over film. Back to the NCPA on popular demand, this production has been celebrated around the world as one that regales, humours and astounds audiences as a spectator’s delight.

The Reality Check
NCPA Presentation in collaboration with Cinema Collective
The Reality Check film series promotes and encourages documentary filmmakers in India, whose work reflects life and culture in the country today in a provocative blend of creativity and integrity.
Chhayaankan -The Management of Shadows
English/Hindi Film with English Subtitles
This documentary looks at the lives and creative journeys of 14 senior cinematographers from the Mumbai film industry, who were active mainly between 1962 and 2012. Cinematographers are among the most easily forgotten and neglected members of the film crew. Very few have been celebrated for their passion and commitment, and very few people are even aware of the trials and tribulations they go through.
Made by a former cinematographer, this film is an insider’s view of the profession, and it touches on a variety of subjects. From ethics and aesthetics, techniques and technology, to teamwork and inspiration. Interspersed with personal anecdotes, this is arguably the first and only film made in India on this subject.
Venue: Little Theatre
Date & Time: 19 January 2023 | 6:30 pm
Duration: 138 mins
