Ek Tanha Chand: A Musical Tribute to Meena Kumari by Fouzia Dastango & Latika Jain
Fouzia Dastango invited audiences into the world of Hindi film icon Meena Kumari - tracing her life and artistry through a dastangoi-style format, accompanied by live vocals.
5 July 2025
Ek Tanha Chand was a performance in the dastangoi tradition - minimal, intimate, and deeply personal. Interwoven with music and archival fragments, the piece drew from the poetry and prose of Meena Kumari to uncover a voice that’s often been overshadowed by the mythology around her.
Combining live narration, songs, and storytelling, the performance offered a space to linger with Meena Kumari’s words, and the world she moved through. Moments from her life, both cinematic and personal, unfolded gently. What emerged was not just a tribute to a screen icon, but to a woman who saw through the gaze that tried to contain her.
