‘Kalamohor’ at ‘Farm of Happiness’ is a unique concept.

The tagline “In company of the artist and the art” itself, explains the essence of this novel idea.

Farm of Happiness is known to be the best agro tourism destination in Ratnagiri district of Konkan.

The idea behind the concept Kalamohor is to celebrate various forms of art with the farmlife.
Imagine staying in company of a renowned artist! For two full days you would not just seeing the artist but also get to chat with him or her, dine with, listen to and enjoy the spontaneous presentation by the artist. This could happen over a cup of tea in the morning or over a walk at the farm with artist. Or this may happen under a tree in the farm or in the moonlight in the aangan! Many times through the day we would get to enjoy listening to the artist’s experiences, philosophy in his art and more. Neither will there be any stage, nor any anchor… It would just be us sitting around the artist and getting smitten by the treasures he or she would be unfolding in front of us!

This is not a formal event or a concert but moments of pure bliss, at Farm of Happiness!

Kalamohor 2024

One does not have to be a musician, writer or a trained artist to enjoy Kaushal’s company at Farm of Happiness in Kalamohor 2024. All you need is being interested in knowing his art, his wisdom and his compositions.̉

Popularly recognized across the world for the beautiful music composed for “The Marathi Abhiman Geet” (Marathi Language Anthem), The talented young composer Kaushal Inamdar has composed music for many Feature films, TV shows, Theatrical Plays and albums. His blogs and writeups on various subjects in music, arts and more subjects reflect profoundness and deeper perspectives. Kalmohor. Is an opportunity to understand his journey in music, poetry and more in his words, while we also enjoy his company during the three days stay at the farm. There is no formal show or presentation over stage but all this would simply and candidly happen over lots of chats in the front yard of the traditional Konkani house or over a walk through the farm and even by the cliff over the while with the Sun setting in the background! “What could be a better way to enjoy the company of an artist!”

Kalamohor 2023

In 2023, we had the honor of inviting the renowned sculptor Shri Bhagwan Rampure for the 'Kalamohor' event. Many enthusiastic art lovers had the opportunity to experience the stay at Farm of Happiness, and experience the art of sculpting from up close.

The arts like music or dance are known to be performing art but Sculpting surely is not . Despite the challenge Rampure ji kept the traveller guests captivated for three days with a live demonstration of sculpting clay portrait. He succeeded in leaving an indelible mark on the appreciative spectators with his artistic presentations.

The difficulty of preserving the captivating essence of these moments for the audience was overcome by the seasoned artist's skillful performances and a friendly approach. Truly, this was a unique and immersive experience for the guests of ‘Kalamohor’.

Although capturing these moments in a video is challenging, this small video is an attempt to convey the essence of the 'Kalamohor' event.

Kalamohor 2022

In the first ever ‘Kalamor in 2022, we were honoured with the company of Young and famous Flutist Ashwin Sriniwasan.

And a select group of guests that were hungry for this candid musical experiment made it the perfect audience for a magical journey through three days. All the sessions at various locations in and around the farm were filled with the magical notes of Ashwinji’s flute. May it be at the farm, on the Machaan, by the side of the valley or in the isolated temple on the plateau… all we experienced was ecstacy with the music from his flute blended with the mystically beautiful nature around. It is not at all possible to help you experience that through a video. Yet, this is only a small glimpse! Enjoy!
