“
BAHINAAI “ is
a presentation of Bahinabai’s poetry in dance form. Bahinabai
Choudhary was born in Asode village
in Jalgaon district of Maharashtra in 1880. Though illiterate in the worldly
sense, she was a poet of tremendous sensitivity. She was in total control of
her language, and thus put serious philosophical subjects simply, to make
the common farmer enjoy and understand her poetry. It made her immortal in
the annals of marathi literature and earned her a special place in the
hearts of millions of marathi readers. Her poetry is not only the outcome of
her poetic genius but also a song of the fields and farms, birds and
animals, of the natural beauty in which she grew and of life in general. Her
poetry is a philosophical exclamation of womanhood and the human mind.
