Nrityanjali History
'A journey of thousand miles begins with a single step.' We also did the same. Formed on 19th July 1963, by
Dr. Tushar Guha, we began in a very small way, with the twin objective of imparting discipline and promoting our great cultural heritage among the youth.
Nrityanjali's approach was simple and its medium is music, dance and dramatics. Music, dance and dramatics have a universal appeal and it is through these performing art forms that Nrityanjali started its journey, striving to reach its goal of social service.
We have progressed over the years culminating into the present day - Nrityanjali - extending our activities in various dimensions. Nrityanjali is now a registered public charitable trust.
19th July, 1963, Cenray Children’s Club was formed by 15 year old Tushar Guha at Century Rayon Colony, Shahad, Kalyan where 200 children gathered and had a game function. The members were the colony children. Mrs. Susy Jacob and Mrs Janaki Nandkumar were the First President and Vice President respectively with Tushar Guha as the secretary. A constitution was drawn up keeping in mind the future growth by Tushar Guha.
In November 1964, the first cultural programme was held. The club had by then a strength of 400. Century Rayon management gave a grant of Rs. 50/- per month.
Since then every year the cultural programme became the annual feature. By 1966 every summer had the sports week followed by Anand Mela. The sports week not only covered athletics but competitions in Recitation, Story Telling, Elocution, Drawing, Fancy Dress, Singing and Dance. The club members were divided into four Houses - Red, Blue, Green and Yellow. The club was now christened as Cenray Junior Club.
In 1968, the club was named as Cenray Youth Club with a President, Vice President, Chairman and Secretary in the key posts. The activities included Book Bank, Library, Gardening, Eye camps, Cleanliness Drive in addition to the cultural & sports week events.
Dance Dramas, Skits and Folk Dances remained the highlights. Children were trained in compere, oratary and handicrafts. Eminent personalities like Smt. Lalita Shastri, Smt. Nutan, Smt. Tanuja, Shri Madhav Mantri, Shri Sunil Gavaskar, Shri Eknath Solka, High Court Judges etc. graced the functions.
Since 1972 the professional cultural shows began, the first at Tejpal Auditorium with Avartan on the music of Pt. Hariprasad Chaurasia & Pt. Shiv Kumar Sharma.

In 2006 the HSC Board, Maharashtra, introduced Personality Development as a compulsory subject for Std. 9th and 10th - a significant achievment of Nrityanjali for championing the cause and organising CONFEP93. Dr. Tushar Guha has been nominated as a member of the syllabus committee of the HSC Board and he conducted training on the subject for 3500 principals of Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Thane and Raigad Districts. The training on teaching methodology of personality development for teachers of all schools is a regular activity of nrityanjali.
At the Institute, IN - HOUSE training for trainers became a regular feature.
On the performances, Nrityanjali reached great heights with prestigeous performances at Bhuj, Gandhidham, BHEL Jhansi, Chiplun, Kala Ghoda Festival, International Fleet Review, IIT, VLDB, Rotary and Lions Clubs etc.
Nrityanjali Fest - Interschool Competitions took gigantic leap and has four zones with 30584 students from 258 schools participating at the Fest in 2007 covering, Mumbai, navi Mumbai, Thane and Raigad Districts of Maharashtra.
We have progressed over the years, culminating in the present day Nrityanjali, extending our activities to include personality development, education and management services as well.
