A celebration of dance

Treat yourself with a dose of classical dance with Parikrama, a festival being organised by means of Kalavardhini Charitable Trust with the primary purpose of supporting and promoting allied arts. The two-day dance festival will see veteran dancers of these days and day after today appearing underneath one roof.

Besides Bharatnatyam, the festival brings together the most productive of different classical dance kinds. Bharatnatyam artist Arundhati Patwardhan says, "This will be the ninth edition of Parikrama. The platform has not only gained audience appreciation and has also helped increase public awareness about various performing arts."

The festival gifts a captivating line-up:
