Dear friends

Going through the Website www.bhalchandrapendharkar.com you must have realized that Bhalchandra Pendharkar and Lalitkaladarsh are not two different identities .

Lalitkaladarsh, which was established on 1st January,1908, has been successfully carrying the legacy of "Sangeet Rangabhoomi" for 3 generations . Shri. Bhalchandra Pendharkar has carefully nurtured this and has kept it alive even today. His wish is that this "Sangeet Rangabhoomi", which has a tradition of 150 years , must be kept alive and that this tradition should continue through his children and the next generation, who has interest in acting in "Sangeet Rangabhoomi" .

Lalitkaladarsh, which has successfully completed 99 years, is entering into it's Centenary year on 1st January, 2007. On this occasion, from 3rd January, 2007 to 6th January 2007, Lalitkaladarsh would be hosting it's Centenary Celebrations.

Lalitkaladarsh has earlier celebrated the Silver, Golden , Diamond , "Amrut" and 90 year Anniversary Jubilees with it's own strength. However, this time we are unable to generate sufficient funds on our own , for this celebration . Hence, it is our humble request to all the art and classical music (Natya Sangeet) lovers to help the Centenary Cultural Celebrations through donations. In the history of Marathi drama , an organisation like Lalitkaladarsh carrying on for 100 years , is unique and unparalleled .

Dear friends, the Indian Marathi connoisseur knows Shri. Bhalchandra Pendharkar, the actor, the singer, the producer and his contribution to the Marathi theatre. To further make it known about him and his work to other people from the whole world as well as to the younger generation , we have created this website with the help of "Priori".

Please let us have your valuable comments after going through this website.

Your financial contribution , your presence and your good wishes for “Lalitkaladarsh Centenary Celebrations” would be highly inspiring for the cause.
