Every year on Children’s Day, Raasavrunda of Mysuru pays rich tributes to all its Gurus. Vid. Y.N. Simha, Dr. Venkatalakshamma, Vid. Lalita Dorai and Pandit Teerathram Sharma Azad are the teachers who have played major role in shaping Vidu. Nandini Eswer. With their blessings, Raasavrunda is passing on the rich tradition of many dance forms to deserving pupils. This year too, the ‘Guru Vandana’ was held on the 14th of November at Veene Seshanna Bhavana.
Raasavrunda has carved a niche for itself with its uncompromising adherence to tradition. They always display simple and meaningful costume and a presentation that reaches the audience effectively. In fact, they are the hallmark of Raasavrunda. Natuvanga was held by Vid. Rohitha Eswer, son and disciple of Vidu. Nandini Eswer for this concert. Young Nityashree and Mahima Kashyap were new introduction to vocal. Vid. H.L. Shivashankaraswamy was on mridanga and Vid. Thandavamurthy on violin.
