Mime or mukabhinaya is the he dramatic art of representing scenes from life through expressive bodily and facial movements. the history is deeply seated with the ancient era and us regarded as the oldest theatre form. Although started in a rather unorganized manner it was in the year 1924, Rabindranath Tagore experimented with a mime production of his play Arup ratan i.e. Formless Jewel , but it contained songs by a seated chorus and recitation of the text by readers. The most renowned Indian mime, Jogesh Dutta, started performing in the 1960s influenced by Marceau, and established the Jogesh Mime Academy in Calcutta. Other disciples of the Marceau school included Irshad Panjatan, a soloist with a large repertoire of items. Among them Bunty Paintal acted in Hindi movies. Awanti Chawla acted in Vadodara and Janardan in Hyderabad. In Delhi, Alok Roy and Irfan Asgari used mime as a tool of social propaganda, the latter for the government s Song and Drama Division.
