ABOUT THE FAMOUS
MODERNIZED AUDITORIUM SRIJANI IN
DURGAPUR.
Srijani
Auditorium has now become the center of attraction in the twin city. It is the
only place everybody wants to conduct their programme. Almost every day this
area remains crowded for various cultural programmes, Exhibition, Drama
competition, Annual function, congregation of eminent persons, and for other
various occasion. It is the cultural centre promoted by the Durgapur Municipal
Corporation.
This
International Standard Auditorium was inaugurated by the famous actor Soumitra
Chatterjee a few years ago. In that auspicious occasion many other eminent
persons like the Film Director Tarun Majumdar, the noted author Sunil Ganguly,
famous light technician Tapas Sen and many other eminent persons were present.
The
center compromises with an auditorium with 1370 cozy seats, an Art Gallery and
a small theatre hall with nearly 200 seats. The auditorium and the gallery are
named on Jibanananda Das and Ram Kinkar Beiz respectively.
Rathin Roy,Mayor DMC said, “The centre is
aimed to draw the attention of the litterateur, poets, artists and persons with
innovative ideas. It is meant to help developing cultural activities. We insist
the maestros in their respective fields to organize their valuable programs in
the large A.C. auditorium where many people can view and learn from their
activities. In earlier days we faced a great difficulty for want of such an
auditorium in Durgapur and we had to hire various auditorium of other concerns
for the programme, Assemblies and Seminars”.
It
is also learnt from official source that the total cost involved to make such a
standardized auditorium was approx. Rs 6 Crore out of which ADDA contributed Rs
1 Crore to build this large center.
Since
it is situated in the heart of the city and well connected with rail &
road, people could easily come here. People of this city boast of such an well
decorated and modernized Auditorium.
