This was the fifteenth episode of the 'Online Sahityasabha' series. Hosted by Kaberi Chatterjee and produced with the help of Debangana Banerjee, Nripendra Singh Madan and Obhi Chatterjee, the 'Online Sahityasabha' series 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 and Shikhyasatra 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' usually take place on the last Saturday of the month. Each episode brings together different performers and a guest of honour - mainly former students of Patha Bhavan or Sikshasatra, as well as their children.

The performers were Kalyani Saha, Utsa Bannerjee, Shuktika Dutta, Sankar Talukdar, Malini Mukherjee, Anshuman Das, Dipanjana Ganguli Rooj and Tirthankar Roy. The guest of honour was Victor van Bijlert.
