The 'Online Sahityasabha' series, hosted by Kaberi Chatterjee, recreates online the tradition established by Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore in his home town of Santiniketan. There, the Sahityasabha ("literary gathering") takes place on Tuesday evenings. It is a performance at which schoolchildren from Patha Bhavan are invited to perform their own creations, including works by Tagore, based on recommendations from their teachers. This is how they learn to become stage-free.

To allow both the performers and the live audience to join from different time zones around the world, the 'Online Sahityasabha' take place on the last Saturday of each month.

This was the seventh 'Online Sahityasabha', bringing together mainly former Patha Bhavan students and their children. The performers included Chayan Munshi, Madhusha Ganguly, Nripendra Singh Madan, Ovie Ganguli, Sewli Basu, Sunando Roy and Sunayana Paul. The guest of honour was Professor Chandan Das.
