Home to a vibrant community of puppeteers and performers- Kathputli has long been the object of fascination for tourists. “You’ll find magic in the Kathputli Slum.” TIME magazine reported in 2008. Adjacent to the Shadipur metro station of Blue Line, Kathputli Colony’s vast sprawl currently occupies valuable real estate in Central Delhi. The rehabilitation of the slum was taken under 2008 offers developers the opportunity to consolidate Kathputli’s residents into sustainable housing, allowing developer to use a section of the site for commercial gain. The scope of my project lies in the advancement of their own culture and social organisation by bridging the gap between their old and new lifestyle. It gives them the opportunity to revive their craft amongst the people so as to earn back their livelihood.
