Bhushita Vasistha returns to Paleti with verse poetry
Amid the growing dominance of free-form writing, Vasistha will take a dive into structured verse in her performance.Post Report
On the evening of January 30 and 31, Nepalaya’s R-Sala at Kalikasthan will host Chandra Retrospective 2.0 with writer Bhushita Vasistha. To amplify the declining practice of verse poetry in Nepal, Vasistha will be performing in Paleti after almost seven years.
Verse poetry is a simple literary genre that can resonate with beats and rhythms. With the wave of free-form poetry, the decline of the verse genre has increased. This style is now surviving in the interest of a limited rhythm-loving literary enthusiasts.
In this year’s presentation, Bhushita’s recitation will be based on navarasa. Along with the poems of leading poets of Nepali literature, Bhushita will also present her own poems at Paleti, including works by the latest generation.
This year’s poetry recital will include works by Lekhnath Poudel, Somnath Sigdhyal, Motiram Bhatta, Bhairav Aryal, Laxmi Prasad Devkota, Madhav Prasad Ghimire, Lokapriya Devkota, Nayraj Pant, Manoj Bhandari, Bharatmani Bhattarai, and Bhushita.
Tickets are open for booking.
