Delhi’s cultural calendar is set to shine brighter this weekend as the National Gallery of Modern Art (NGMA), New Delhi, presents a special theatrical tribute to Rabindranath Tagore on the occasion of his 165th birth anniversary. Titled “Gurudevaya – The Rising Sun Through the Eyes of Bhanu,” the performance promises an emotional and immersive evening celebrating the life, philosophy, and timeless legacy of Gurudev.
Organized under the guidance of Dr. Sanjeev Kishor Goutam, the theatrical presentation will take place on 9th May 2026 at 6:00 PM at NGMA, New Delhi. The event is expected to draw art lovers, literature enthusiasts, theatre audiences, students, and admirers of Tagore from across the city.
“Gurudevaya – The Rising Sun Through the Eyes of Bhanu” is more than just a stage performance — it is a heartfelt artistic journey through the life of Rabindranath Tagore. The production beautifully explores his transformation from a curious young child into one of the world’s most celebrated poets, philosophers, artists, and thinkers.
