Oli Goli Golpo Boli: Every Lane a Story
A Kawtha Koi Initiative
Kolkata lives and breathes stories — stories that echo from crumbling balconies, drift through narrow alleys, and hide in the scent of old books and burnt sugar. With this belief at its core, Kawtha Koi presents "Oli Goli Golpo Boli: Every Lane a Story", a unique city-wide celebration of memory, place, and the art of storytelling.
This isn’t just a heritage walk. It’s a journey through time.
"Oli Goli Golpo Boli" is a carefully curated episodic event — a series of immersive storytelling tours that unearth the vibrant, layered history of the city, one neighbourhood at a time. From forgotten footnotes in history to everyday legends passed down in whispers, each episode will take visitors through a new route, exploring the lesser-known yet fascinating facets of Kolkata.
Each walk will feature live storytellers, performances, and oral narratives — weaving tales of revolution and romance, migration and music, food and folklore. The initiative invites you to not just see the city, but listen to it — to walk with its ghosts, laugh with its poets, and pause where the past still lingers.
Whether you’ve lived here all your life or are stepping into its lanes for the first time, "Oli Goli Golpo Boli" promises to show you a city you’ve never quite seen before.
Come walk with us.
Every lane has a story. We’re here to tell it.
