“Nothing is ever really lost to us as long as we remember it.” 
― L.M. Montgomery, The Story Girl

Memories are the most precious souvenirs that we keep on collecting and storing with us during travel. On this journey called life, we all grow up carrying bits and pieces of our childhood days, our adolescent years, our youth and thereafter. These memories sometimes remain hidden in quiet corners of the heart. Certain places, certain smells, certain tastes and certain sounds can bring them back to us. These memories evoke feelings of joy, excitement, pain and sorrow - each unique in its own form and intensity. Together with their musicians, Parambrata and Piya will bring to you Kothao Amar Hariye Jawar Nei Nei Mana
 that celebrates the nuances of friendship, love, and longing through readings, poetry, and music—capturing these experiences across different stages of life.
