When the spirited and sassy ghost of Kadambari Devi-Rabindranath Tagore s enigmatic sister-in-law-leaps across time, she finds herself guiding two iconic women from Tagore s fiction: Charu and Bimala. Both brilliant, restless, and caught between love, intellect, and duty, they struggle to find their place in a world that is changing faster than they are allowed to.
As the three women debate, challenge, and inspire one another, they discover a surprising truth: the world may have moved from the 19th century to the 21st, but the inner battles women fight-for independence, desire, and meaning-remain strikingly familiar.
Adapted from Isheeta Ganguly s internationally acclaimed dram-com musical Three Women: A Musical Theatre, this graphic novel offers a bold, visually immersive reimagining of Tagore s heroines. Blending literature, history, and modern reflection, it celebrates the enduring power of Tagore s women, and their quest to balance purpose with passion.
