The boundary of laughter: popular performances across borders in South Asia

De, Aniket

This book explores how spaces of popular performance have changed with the emergence of national borders in modern South Asia. The author traced the making of the popular theater form called Gambhira by Hindu and Muslim peasants and laborers in colonial Bengal, and explores the fate of the tradition after the partition of the region in 1947.
