Having pursued her passion for dance since childhood, Kaberi has performed extensively in India and toured Japan, Bangladesh and Europe.

More recently, she has devised and choreographed Kaberi’s Indian dance workout and performed the title role in the film version of Shyama by Rabindranath Tagore (1913 Nobel Prize for Literature).
RETROSPECTIVE SATYAJIT RAY
Three films by Satyajit Ray based on works by Tagore. Ray studied at the Kala Bhavan (art faculty) in Santiniketan at the college founded by Tagore which later became the university Visva-Bharati.
 SHYAMA the film AND THE DIGITAL REVOLUTION
by Obhi Chatterjee,
British director of the feature film Shyama included in the 'Homage to
Rabindranath Tagore' section, explains how Shyama has taken advantage of
the opportunities created by the digital revolution to raise
international awareness of Tagore and the dance form created by Tagore
towards the end of his life. As one of the first digital end-to-end
films, Shyama offers an interesting case study in the production, global
distribution and promotion possibilities offered to good films by the
digital revolution. The Shyama model illustrates one of the new business
models tailored to today's digital reality. Obhi hopes to offer some
insights based on his experience with Shyama through an illustrated
presentation followed by a question-and-answer session.
CELEBRATING 15 YEARS OF CNEMA
15O anniversary of Rabindranath Tagore

Rabindranath Tagore (7 May 1861 – 7 August 1941) was a Bengali polymath. He came from a wealthy family of intellects and creative people. He was also a popular poet, novelist, musician, painter and playwright who reshaped Bengali literature and music in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. As author of Gitanjali and its "profoundly sensitive, fresh and beautiful verse",[1] and as the first Asian to win the Nobel Prize in Literature,[2] Tagore was perhaps the most widely regarded Indian literary figure of all time. He was a mesmerizing representative of the Indian culture whose influence and popularity internationally perhaps could only be compared to that of Gandhi, whom Tagore named 'Mahatma' out of his deep admiration for him.
