About CICD

Centre for Indian Classical Dances (CICD) i.e. Shri Kamakhya Kalapeeth is one of the most respected institution devoted to promoting Indian Classical Dance. It was established by the Cultural Icon of India,Padma Vibhushan Dr. Sonal Mansingh who is currently Member of Parliament (Rajya Sabha). The Centre has been working in the field of teaching India’s classical dance art, classical music, Yoga and Sanskrit since 1977. It has an enviable record of mega-events, dance-drama, performance of dance, music and theatre by some of the greatest artists of India. The Centre encouraged young dancers of the time i.e. 1983-84 in specially designed festivals, most of whom are eminent names today e.g. Leela Samson, Bharati Shivaji, Saswati Sen, Krishan Mohan and others. This tradition of preparing next generation of dancers alongwith the audience, Rasik connoisseurs, has continued to this day. The Centre organises Kalayatra festival every year and gives prestigious Life-Time Achievement Award to legendary artists in the field of Art and Culture.

Pandemic and Performing Arts

The performing arts have been the worst sufferer in the age of Pandemic. Artists in the field of performing arts, specially from the traditional dances of India have been the worst hit by closure of auditoria, recording studio, cancellation of all events and festivals which are main source of sustenance through the year. In the high-voltage noise of many others from popular and silver screen, the poor dancer has been elbowed out of the economic packages offered by society.

New Normal for Performing Arts

Our young generation of dancers deserves good platforms where they can share their ideas and creativity without fear of incurring huge expenditure. They need encouragement and a purpose to be able to carry on with this noble art. It is high time that we overcome the distressing shock of Pandemic and try to develop new mode of presentation for the Performing Arts. It is also very important to explore new avenues for performances which give stable livelihood to the artist, but at the same time it is also important to retain the originality and classical nature of our art forms specially the dances. It is a challenge which gives us impetus to think afresh and act.

75 Years of Independent India(1947-2022)

India will complete 75 years of Independence as a nation in 2022. Celebrations have already begun. Our civilization and culture are ancient i.e. atleast 10,000 years old and foreign rule of few hundred years has had little impact on the age-old traditions. Now is the time to rejuvenate our spirit and celebrate the beauty and mystery of Bharatiya ASMITA (identity). Who better than the dancer to do so?

Dance of India @ 75
