The Akhil Bhartiya Kalidas Samaroh is a seven-day festival held every year in the city of Ujjain, that is acquainted with literary giants of Sanskrit such as Kalidas, Vatsyayana, Bhartrihari, and appreciated Hindi writers like Shivmangal Singh Suman, Prabhakar Machve, Gajanan Madhav Muktibodh, and Pandit Surya Narayan Vyas. The Akhil Bhartiya Kalidas Samaroh is held every year in the winter season. Akhil Bhartiya Kalidas Samaroh attracts many people, both from the country as well as from abroad. Several dramas are staged during this event that depict a wide array of themes, social, socio-political, cultural etc. The Indian classical programs also find many stalwarts performing besides some performers whose journey into the musical arena has just begun. Akhil Bharatiya Kalidas Samaroh of Ujjain takes pride in its association with Kalidas, the greatest poet of the country. Kalidasa was a poet who has contributed heavily to the Sanskrit literature. In his works, this great poet has pictured the beauty of life and pondered how we can offer pleasure to others by way of our liberal and graceful behavior. His portrayals are heart- warming, vivid and his word power is pretty unique. Dr. Rajendra Prasad, India's first President inaugurated the festival when it was held for the first time in the year of1958. The first Prime Minister of India, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru did the honors of inaugurating the second Akhil Bharatiya Kalidas Samaroh in Ujjain. It was largely the scholarly enthusiasm of Pandit Suryanarayana Vyas that is held responsible for this festivals' establishment.
