Rabinandan's 13th anniversary program started by remembering the great Rabindrasangeet artiste Suchita Mitra. Songs dedicated to her were rendered by Sanghamitra Gupta and Debashish Ray.
To celebrate Tagore's 150th birth anniversary, Rabinandan also staged Tagores dance-drama Chitrangada. Direction by Debjani Majumdar. A brief review in Statesman praised the effort saying:
... the event that also featured solo renditions by Sanghamitra Gupta and Debashish Roy, was essentially staged by the members of Rabinandan at Sisir Mancha. They dedicated ‘Amar bhuban to aaj holo kangal’ and ‘Aguner parashmani’ to the memory of the late Suchitra Mitra and later offered Chitrangada under the choreography of Tarit Sarkar and music direction of Debjani Majumdar who also joined in narration with Soumen Nath.
