Just as the dialect changes every twelve kos (approximately 24 miles) in Maharashtra, so too does the tradition, style, presentation, and grandeur of folk art. The goal of the folk artists who carry the palanquin of this folk art on their shoulders isn't merely entertainment. It's about keeping Marathi values, traditions, and culture immortal. Having imbibed the elixir of oral tradition, Marathi folk art has survived for centuries, deeply connected to this land and the human heart.


However, just as a civilization or culture can be destroyed by foreign invasion and become history, the same picture has emerged for this folk art. The enchantment of some uncultured Western art has spread over Marathi folk art and the minds of its people. As a result, this folk art and its civilization are completely on the path to becoming history.


Is this the last generation of Marathi folk art and folk artists?

Therefore, choosing the path of Marathi narrative art, and creating new compositions and tunes from "Gana" to "Gondhal," a "movement of young artists" has emerged to restore the same honor, respect, and public patronage to Marathi folk art, to enchant people with its authentic Marathi values, and to serve folk art. This movement is "The Folk Aakhyan" – the style is old, the performance is new.
