Nobel laureate, poet, novelist and composer, Tagore’s unique farsightedness, statesmanship, and vivid retrospection are especially reflected in his innumerable volumes of profoundly sensitive poetries, appealing songs, intellectual essays, riveting novels, mystic dance dramas and timeless short stories.
Gulzarji is a celebrated poet, writer, lyricist and film director whose works have also been influenced by Bangla poetry and literature. He has been decorated with several accolades and awards including the Dadasaheb Phalke Award.
