KATHA CURATOR was born out of the passion to curate, revive tales of India and stay connected to the roots. Kathacurator has been focusing on showcasing writers and artists, who have woven stories and retold folk stories of India in their own exquisite style primarily in Kannada. My humble effort is to document and present to Katha rasikas (connoisseurs) by adding my own elements to it while retaining the essence. In my endeavor of collecting, collating, documenting and retelling stories through Kathabhinaya(story enactment) and Kathavachana( story narration) I also wish to collaborate with artists and unearth the hidden gems amongst us.
