About the Book
This book delves into the transformation of jatra, a traditional form of folk theatre, in the context of modernity. It explores how jatra has adapted to new forms, allowing "authentic" folk traditions to not only survive but flourish in contemporary times. The evolution of jatra from premodern folk theatre to a mass entertainment form in modern Odisha highlights its resilience and cultural adaptability. The book examines how this hybridization process has allowed jatra to retain its traditional identity while adapting to the demands of modern entertainment, establishing it as a dominant force in the entertainment industry.
