Witness the beauty of Kathak as Sheetal Kolwalkar masterfully weaves rhythm and expression into a performance that enchants and touches the soul.
Dive into the timeless elegance of Kathak, where rhythm and expression merge in a mesmerising performance by Sheetal Kolwalkar. The evening opens with a Ganesh Vandana, an original composition and choreography that sets a serene and auspicious tone for the presentation.
At the heart of the evening is a stunning bandish in Dhamar Taal, ‘Bajat Taal Dhamar, Niratat’, intricately designed to showcase the depth and richness of rhythm. Kathak’s signature elements — Thaat, Tukde, Paran, powerful footwork, and graceful spins — unfold with precision and beauty, celebrating the artistry of pure dance.
The performance then transitions into Abhinaya, the soul of Kathak’s storytelling tradition. Through evocative expressions, the dancer breathes life into stories, intertwining emotions that transcend time and resonate deeply with the audience. This harmonious blend of rhythm and narrative is a celebration of Shuddha Nrutta Abhivyakti — pure dance expression — highlighting the depth, grace, and emotional power of Indian classical dance.
