An Interview With Anurupa Roy of Katkatha

When you think of what you want to be in life chances are the usual suspects pop into your mind. Lawyer, Engineer or doctor perhaps? But what if you want to do something which is different, off beat, out of the box. Something which will make you want to get up for your work. How do you find what you are passionate about?

There are some uncommon and extraordinary things that you can do keeping your interests and passions in mind.  This interview is the first of a series of interviews that I will be doing with interesting people with different careers, and hopefully they will be able to answer some of these questions.

A few weeks ago, I took part in a workshop with Ms. Anurupa Roy, the founder of the ‘Katkatha Puppet Arts Trust’, and I learnt how to make a puppet theatre in a box.

I asked her a few questions that I had about puppetry and she gave me some very interesting and insightful answers. For anyone who is interested in art, and would like to take it up later in life, Anurupa ma’am gives her input via her passion for puppetry.
