Atho Hidimba Katha

Hidimba is a demoness from Mahabharata who was only mentioned twice in the epic. It seems that the great poet Vyasa did not have enough space for Hidimba.

In ‘Atho Hidimba Katha’ Hidimba comes up with her own version of the epic on behalf of the marginalized people whose presence are never mentioned in history. While telling her story of the jungle life as a part of the mother nature, she brings out the parallel story of her life. The machineries of discrimination and marginalization on basis of birth, caste, race, religion or gender become visible as Hidimba redefines the idea of ‘demoness’ as not lesser but an equal human being.

Photos & text from Samuho
Next show of Atho Hidimba Katha is on 4th October (Sunday) at 7 pm.

I’v often wondered about the women in Indian/Hindu epics and mythology. Women were always depicted as such one directional characters and it was obvious that they were written by a person who had no real idea of human workings. I’m glad we’re changing that now.
