A form of the traditional Lathi dance, by the boys of NSUSS
The jargon mentioned by almost every other person today about private universities being aloof from our culture and being westernised is absolutely wrong and has been proven so by the 10th Annual Cultural Evening, recently organised by North South University Sangskritik Sangathan, a culture club of North South University, the first private university established in the country. The audience was taken aback by the colourful display of the dhulis, playing their dhols in their colourful costumes, along with the students greeting the awe-struck onlookers with massive sunflowers, lion-masks and showers of flower petals. 10th ACE went on to sparkle the environment with various elements of nature and our culture, namely folk songs, classical dances, lathi dance, comedy shows, a mockery of the present situation of the Bangladeshi film industry and much more.
Sadya Afreen Mallick, famous Nazrul Geeti singer, who was present at the show, expressed her surprise and appreciation of the superb presentation by the students.
"I wasn't planning on staying long at the event," she said. "But once the show began to unfold, I just couldn't leave!"
