Apart from awareness, the first ever festival
of WIP (Women in Prostitution) is also an important means of rehabilitation through their ready made
classical and folk song & dance traditions-drawing minimum suspicious eye
from
the vested interests. Moreover, they have been keepers of traditional form of
music and dance in this era of extinction
which has survived since ages. In this
era of
various T.V. Channels, orchestra the demand for the traditional music is
dwindling at a very rapid pace-thus putting pressure on the source of their
livelihood and substituting it with the increasing demand
of flesh trade.
Their talent was attested by B.B.C., Star T.V., ZEE T.V., D.D.I., D.D.II, Sahara T.V., etc. Several times. Now the festival is managed by the WIP Themselves and we are in the process of making economically sustainable cultural teams.
