Traditions of Tamasha and Wari

Tamasha and Wari, two significant cultural traditions in Maharashtra, are often hailed as pivotal in shaping the liberal ideological landscape of the region. Sandesh Bhandare, whose extensive photographic work has been instrumental in preserving these rich traditions speaks of his experiences during his field visits. 

Beyond mere entertainment, Tamasha and Wari serve as vessels for preserving enlightenment values. Through their performances, artists have addressed social inequality and indifference, ensuring that these issues remain at the forefront of public consciousness. Sandesh Bhandare’s work captures the essence of these traditions and highlights their enduring relevance in today’s society.
