KOLKATA
Kolkata served as the capital of India during the British Raj until 1911.
Since the year 2000, an economic rejuvenation has led to a spurt in the city's growth.
Kolkata has long been known for its literary, artistic and revolutionary heritage.
As the former capital of India, Kolkata was the birthplace of modern Indian literary and artistic thought.
Kolkata Residents tend to have a special appreciation for art and literature; its tradition of welcoming new talent has made it a "city of furious creative energy".
All Kolkatans have an artist's ardor tucked away somewhere in the corners of their hearts.
Small wonder, then, that the City of Joy is sprinkled with countless havens for art aficionados.
Kolkata has also played an important position in the expansion of modern Indian art.
Kolkata (formerly Calcutta) is the capital of West Bengal and the second largest city in India (after Mumbai).
If Bengaluru is the Seattle of India, then Kolkata is the sub-continent's New York.
Kolkata is indeed a happening city and when it comes to entertainment in Kolkata, the city of joy has a lot of choices to offer.
Kolkata Residents are very talented people and have an artistic flair.
Kolkata is in fact very famous for its cultural activities then be it theatre, music, dance, art or poetry.
