Tara Sundari

Tara Sundari (stage name Tarasundari) (1878 - 19 April 1948) was a Bengali theater actress, singer, and a dancer.

[3] Tarasundari and Aparesh Chandra were one of the most successful on-stage pair of the Bengali theatre actors.

At that time the Minerva Theatre, under the supervision of Girish Ghosh, was producing Karmeti Bai.

Tarasundari, on Girish Ghosh's request, temporarily played the role of Karmeti Bai for two shows.

After a long hiatus from theatre, Tarasundari returned to acting when the Indian Dramatic Club opened under the supervision of Amarendranath Datta, a well known actor and playwright of that time.

She went on to work with other groups like the newly established Arora, Minerva, and Kohinoor Theatres.

She worked in the early days of theater in Bengal with Shishir Kumar Bhaduri.
