Kolkata: Internationally acclaimed percussionist and GiMA awardee Pandit Prodyut Mukherjee has come up with a unique initiative 'Green Tabla' to mark World Environment Day. The tabla is a musical instrument very popular in India and abroad. Pandit Mukherjee has planted trees inside some of his unused tablas and has also decorated the roof of his house and his living room with these green tablas.
“There were many
tablas that I don't use anymore. So I thought this would be a very innovative
way to serve the cause. There are many memories I have with all these tablas. This
way I can keep them in front of my eyes, and also add value to the interior
decoration of my drawing-room, besides it is environment friendly too.”
Mukherjee credits PR professional Sudipta Chanda with giving him this innovative idea. “I liked
his idea and went on replace tub with a table,” Pandit Mukherjee added, saying “This
decoration of the tree with musical instruments also looks very beautiful in
the interior decoration of the house. June 5 is also my birthday. I am very
happy to be able to do such a unique thing on this special occasion."
