ABOUT THE FESTIVAL
Le’ Chakallas is not a festival — it is a movement.
Born out of rebellion, curiosity, and community, Le’ Chakallas is a week-long celebration of unfiltered art, fearless voices, and radical creativity. Produced by Ravi Srivastava at Artisan Coterie and presented by Mandali Talkies × Artisan Coterie, the festival transforms the venue into a living, breathing playground for artists and audiences alike.
Across multiple days, the festival hosts an eclectic mix of theatre performances, poetry, storytelling, stand-up comedy, rap battles, beatboxing, open mics, music gigs, and full-scale concerts, alongside coffee raves, workshops, food pop-ups, and artisan markets. Every corner becomes a space for collaboration, discovery, and dialogue.
At its heart, Le’ Chakallas is about community — a place where emerging and established artists collide, ideas are exchanged freely, and creativity thrives beyond boundaries of genre or form. It is raw, intimate, experimental, and electric — designed not just to be watched, but experienced.
Come witness art without filters.
Come build community through creation.
Come be part of Le’ Chakallas.
