"Souls of India was founded by Samadrita Bhattacharyya and Meghma Banerjee. We are an Indian Creative Arts collaboration company and bring together freelance artists from different backgrounds ranging from but not limited to Indian classical and regional contemporary dance forms, live musicians, and painters. Our vision is to create a vibrant and diverse tapestry of unique and creative stage productions telling stories of Indian mythology, novels by Rabindranath Tagore and other Indian poets and playwrights, and recreating iconic folk tales from the region of Bengal (India) using Indian classical dance forms namely Kathak and Bharatanatyam, regional folk, and Bengali contemporary dance. We believe that our outlook has attracted a wider audience to foster a deeper appreciation for the richness and heritage of classical and regional art forms of India."
