Avatari Devi

Avatari Devi Avatari Devi hails from Buxar, Bihar- Yes the same where battles have been fought in the past. She can sing as well but then she is no cuckoo.

Though all she has in her arsenal is her sharp tongue and some killer moves.

To be held in a gaze that lifts us, loves us and yet grounds us, is an absolute privilege.

That was the gaze of these women and girls from prc i got to perform for, for the first iteration of тАШBan, Carbon, VarnaтАЩ. Thank you , ids and for inviting us and offering us the space to do what we did.

Thank you .hashiya for shooting, editing and putting together this video! I still canтАЩt believe that you just did it! So much love. You make me speechless.

Thank you for your forever willingness to play along with the improvisations ЁЯШм. The music makes it all a bit easier.

Thank you for improving our sound. Again тЭдя╕ПтЭдя╕ПтЭдя╕П

Thank you for just chugging along with all the cookies and the crazies. And showing up ЁЯдЧЁЯдЧ

Thank you for the beautiful witnessing that you doтАж that subtle observation and addition ЁЯШК

Thank you Sujata ji, and for being such a wonderful audience. Looking forward to many more deep interactions.

Thank you .jaan for seeing and resonating in ways that i couldnтАЩt think was possible.

Looking forward to sharing this lovely bite of unprocessed carbon soon. ЁЯШмЁЯШмЁЯШм

Bante, bante hi sab kuch banta hai,nahin?

It takes a lot of effort to build something- anything. You would know. After all, we are all always banao-ing one thing or another in our lives. Just like Dharti maiya, our dear mother earth, forever cooking carbon for us to consume. Like a non-stop kitchen. No? With a little help from minions in our world.
Minions whom we sometimes remember, on some special days and special months and sometimes not. You can always do an intensive revision. No?

But yes, it will be stupid to assume that the kitchen mentioned is a non-stop thing. It is not. But some straights and not-so-straights, go bigul-bajaoing, maane trumpeting, in places they have no business being- other peopleтАЩs straits!

All in the hope that their private kitchens can keep running, on and on.

Ab usmein ban jale, kisi ka carbon jale ya kisi aur varna ka kuch aur.
(Now whether a forest burns or somebodyтАЩs stored up carbon or the homes of some lesser beings, what does it matter?)

Why should they bother?

Uff, I have a habit of side-tracking. Main track- there is a performance about all things good and positive this Sunday.

Sun- 19th April, 4.15 PM, Indian Social Institute, Lodi Colony

***rlit ***rart

Who holds the key to our visibility?
Who unlocks the ways in which we will be seen or not seen?
This year the TransDayofVisibility holds a special relevance.
The law goes far.
Memory, further.
Then there are our own need to hide and reveal.
I explore in this piece -Hide of my hide.

Deeply thankful to for collaborating on this with her glorious artwork- part of the collection, Sediments (2019).

We all arrive into our transness in unique ways yet the journey is a shared one, an incandescent overlap of paths.

I hope to keep mapping.

To our q***r delights and griefs.

You were kind, erudite and so wonderfully lost.

You introduced me to small libraries, .06 , the beauty and terror of French as a language (and more), poetry groups and what would make a Sambhar more mallu.

You were one of the first champions of Avatari.

You held joy in your body, laughing so easily, making my jokes sound funnier than they were.

A performance could just be a conversation with you and it would hold. I would be held.

Of course, we had our lows. I was unkind and arrogant.

But then again, when I reached out, you looked past that.

For the past three years, you fought valiantly, with grace and an imagination, that I can only associate with you. There are so many ways in which you won.

I will always seek your writing, your wisdom and your laughter.

My Alsi, Elsi, Elsa.

P.S.: Have borrowed a book from your library, hopefully for a very long time.

It was new. It was exciting. It was breathless (behind the stage) ЁЯШм
I always feel immensely grateful everytime that I get to be on stage.
Being up there was my first love and now that I have come back to it, I just want to keep building.
And thatтАЩs what we did- visuals, layers, white and green, anonymous beings and beings made anonymous, and of course, Sakina and her тАШWhale P**p and other storiesтАЩ.

A huge thanks to who just came everywhere with me- from the tailor to the rehearsals to the D-day! for that magical touch right when the nerves are about to come apart but the face must come together for the light, curtains and a hell lot of patience for much behind the scenes
for the lovely videos
***r for inviting Sakina into my stage life
for that touch of salt and that touch of air
And everyone else at

The reviews have been kind and instructional.

As I said, forever building.

Salon of the anonymous in collaboration with the oddbird theatre at the Friends of the Oddbird festival.

Firsts are always special.

What a delight it has been to conceive this design, the interspersing of narratives and creating layers with anonymity.

As always, my dear dekhne aur sunane waalon, there will be music, drama, some shared joys and griefs, and of course, Sakina, whose story is central to it all- Whale P**p and other distractions.

It has been a pleasure bringing alive Episode 1 of Salon of the Anonymous!
Thank you ЁЯе░

House opens today evening at 6.30 pm at, you guessed it, friends of oddbird festival at oddbird theatre.

Aaiye, aaiye! Rulaayenge kya? Wo to hamara kaam hai, nahi?
