While most people think that to appreciate and admire good literature, one needs to read, read a lot. In line with India’s oldest tradition of transmitting knowledge through ‘shruti’ and ‘smruti’and inspired from the Natyashastra – Bharat Muni’s treatise on the dramatics, Chintan Pandya has developed a concept of Vachikam – dramatic reading to promote good literature and make it accessible and enjoyable by all the walks of the society.
