Anhad Garje: The silence reverberates

December 7, 2020

Before the Babri Masjid was destroyed, Sahmat had planned a program of Sufi–Bhakti performances for January 1, 1993, titled Anhad Garje (a phrase used by the medieval saint-poet Kabir that roughly translates to “the silence reverberates”). In the immediate aftermath of the demolition, Anhad Garje became Sahmat’s quickfire response to, and a protest against the demolition of the mosque. The seventeen-hour stretch of performances took on an additional resonance by promoting communal harmony and serving as a reminder of the power of performance to voice resistance.

See the other parts of the ten part series here.
The videos have been published here as part of a collaboration with Sahmat.
