My Story

We Indians, we love telling stories, don’t we? At Dhaatu, puppetry is not just a job, it’s a calling. Sometimes, it’s tough, but I always find inspiration in legends like Rukmini Devi Arundale. Bharatanatyam, gardening, puppets - all tangled up in the spiral of life. When Padma Shri came, it was pure gratitude, a salute to Bharat. What we do is about keeping our stories alive, so the next gen can feel proud and connected.

My Work

What We Offer - Traditional puppet shows - string, shadow, hand puppets, plus Ramayana puppet show, museum tours, and birthday events.

Cultural Workshops - We run workshops for kids and adults, using epics and history to spark curiosity and joy.

Rooted in Tradition - Our puppetry follows Dakshina Bharata sampradaya, with puppets inspired by Hoysala temple art.

Special Show Moments - Once, we found a chariot in a village for our Vijayanagara Vaibhava performance. Magic happens when stories come alive.
