FAMOUS NAUTANKI ARTIST

Profile of Artist:

Madhu Agarwal is younger daughter of legendary Padmashree Nautanki Artist Gulab Bai.

Madhu Agrawal, Gulab Bai’s younger daughter, was studying at university when she agreed to take on a heroine role in the Great Gulab Theatre Company, to help tide over a financial crisis. Once she joined, however, there was no looking back, for she was a brilliant actor, vivacious and talented.

In 1996, the Great Gulab Theatre Company was invited to perform at the Vishwa Hindi Sammelan, Trinidad and Tobago. The group performed Amar Singh Rathore with Madhu as the heroine, Haadi Rani, to a rapt audience. Later that year, Gulab Bai passed away, and Madhu took over the management of the company.

Madhu Agrawal continued producing and directing nautankis upon invitation for the next 15 years, including Anarkali at the Sangeet Natak Akademi, Lucknow; Amar Singh Rathore and Raja Harishchandra in Bhopal; and Sultana Daku at the India Habitat Centre, New Delhi.
