In this paper, I will be focusing on Ramprasadi Shyama Sangeet - how Ramprasad’s songs were beyond his subject, bringing in several contexts that emphasized the portrayal of his subject, Kali. Ramprasad Sen (1718-1775) wrote and composed almost 300 Shakta songs in Bengali dedicated to Maa Kali. Other poets like Kamalakanta Bhattacharya, Mahendranath Bhattacharya were other notable poets who followed Ramprasad Sen. Their written poems were sung and performed in the villages and they later found their way to the cities. Shyama Sangeet is one of the most integral parts of Bengali culture. This experience has found a continuous representation in all his songs. He wrote songs for farmers, businessmen mirroring the social crises, debts that a common man has. These brought in the social and economic aspects of the Bengal province of Colonial India. The rise of these songs took place in an extremely volatile political state. On one level, it was used as a tool for creating an anti-Mughal attitude on the other level it created an anti-colonial mindset by grasping the roots of power and motherhood of the nation. The juxtaposition of motherhood, everyday philosophy, socio-economic and political conditions created an enriched text in the Bengali culture that was addressed to many social classes. This paper attempts to explore. How did Kali attain the centre of Goddess worshipping from the periphery? What role does Shyama Sangeet play in the process? How was the ferocious Kali portrayed as an ignorant mother? How did the mother figure of the Kali influence nationalistic movements in Bengal?
