Release of Stree'r Patro
Stree’r
Patro (The letter from the wife) is one of the earliest depictions in Bengali
literature of such bold emancipation of women. Mrinal is the wife of a typical
Bengali middle class man. The letter, written while she is traveling, describes
her life and struggles. She finally declares that she will not return to his patriarchal home, stating Amio
Bachbo. Ei Bachlum (And I shall live. Here, I live).
This audio rendition of Stree’r Patro by
Rituparno Ghosh was a Radio Mirchi initiative and it was first broadcast by the
FM channel on 8th May 2012, Rabindra Jayanti). This was the first
and probably the only time Ghosh ventured into radio. “Strir Potro” – the audio
presentation features narration by Ghosh himself, supported by an evocative
background score by Sanjoy Dazz.
