BOKAKHAT: Madhurima Choudhury, Assam’s first Bihu Queen and a veteran actress, was grandly felicitated on Sunday evening at the Ghanakanta Saikia and Tileswari Saikia Memorial Library in Bordihingia, Bokakhat, by several organizations. An intimate interaction was also held during the event.

Choudhury expressed regret over the current distortion of traditional Bihu dance and stated that only grandmothers (older women) have truly preserved the authentic form of the dance. She emphasized that spontaneous and traditional Bihu is still very much alive in Assam’s rural communities. She also gave a detailed explanation about the Assamese Bihu culture.

Organizations such as Bordihingia Bornam Ghar, Natya Mandir, Moonlight Homestay, Ghanakanta Saikia and Tileswari Saikia Memorial Library, Komargaon Girls’ High School, and Bordihingia Primary School came together to honour Madhurima Choudhury. The event was hosted by Jatin Kakoti, retired headmaster of Komargaon Girls’ High School.
