Toys Today

Panelists: Alok Bhalla; Mugdha Sinha; and Sukrita Paul Kumar

Moderator: Asani Bhaduri

Traditional toys and dolls are vanishing from urban playrooms, whether at home or in playschools. Are toys relevant in the age of video games and animations? Is there a renewed interest in toys in some sections of society? What has changed in the past few decades? The panelists will address some of these issues and the past, present and future of toys.

Traditional toys and dolls are dying a slow death in India despite a recent push from the Government. Continuing for thousands of years, toys and festive fairs are now vanishing from urban culture and public spaces. The art of toy making is not restricted to specific parts of India as commonly believed - rather it is extraordinarily vast - as is the diversity of the raw materials. 

This exhibition showcases more than 50 toys and dolls from different States and UTs of India made of wood, papier-mâché, metal, tin, stone carving, leather, candle, clothes, seashells etc.
