Rasikas were catered with different flavours on a common meal spread.
The concert commenced with kathak by S. Yashaswini, who currently furthering under Guru Mysore B. Nagaraj at Articulate Dance Studios, Bengaluru. She began with a composition that was an ode to Lord Shiva who danced while he played mridanga and accompanied by his consort. In the item “Bajata Mridanga,” one could see the vibrant dancing of the Lord of Dance to the syllables of the mridang. This was a perfect blend of nrutta and nrutya.
