Hami Chhelibiti

Hami Chhelibiti invites you into a world rarely seen—and even hardly ever understood.

Set in a remote, uncharted landscape where life unfolds beyond the reach of modernity, the play is a powerful story of love, longing and loss. At its heart is a young boy—deeply connected to the rhythm of nature and the world around him—whose life suddenly takes an unexpected turn. What happens next will take you through the saga of life—from living to surviving and sometimes just existing.

Through this journey, the play opens a window into a community rich in culture, music, and unspoken bonds, even as it grapples with change, desire, and disruption. As the lines between innocence and intrusion begin to fade, Hami Chhelibiti raises a profound question: What changes when “progress” enters a world that has long thrived in its own unique pattern?

Visually vibrant, emotionally stirring, and rooted in the folk soul of Purulia, this epic theatre experience blends storytelling with deep-rooted and revered indigenous traditions like Jhumur songs, Santali dance, and Purulia Chhau into a powerful, immersive spectacle brought to life by more than 30 actors and performers.
