We bring ancient epics to life through large-scale dance productions, blending classical Kathak and Bharatanatyam with original music and dramatic storytelling.

A glimpse into the vibrant energy of 'Rama Katha Vismaya', our spectacular dance musical. Here, our dancers portray the forest creatures welcoming Rama, showcasing the grand scale and detailed character work that defines our productions.

The stage comes alive with the epic story of the Ramayana in 'Rama Katha Vismaya'. This clip showcases our talented male dancers portraying Rama's army, set against a backdrop of stunning visuals and powerful music.

In 'Rama Katha Vismaya', we delve into every part of the epic. This scene depicts Rama and Lakshmana's valiant fight against the rakshasas, a moment of high drama and energetic choreography.

A pivotal moment from 'Krishnaa - Fire to Frost', where Draupadi confronts Krishna before his peace negotiation. Our dance dramas focus on these intense emotional exchanges that drive the narrative of the Mahabharata.

This poster captures the fiery spirit of our production 'Krishnaa - Fire to Frost'. The performance traces the journey of Draupadi, born from the flames of vengeance, through the highs and lows of her epic life.

We are thrilled to announce the centennial celebrations of my father-in-law, the legendary theatre artist Sri T.V. Dwarakanath. We will commemorate this with a special performance of our magnum opus, 'Krishnaa - Fire to Frost'.

An invitation to our production 'Tad Bhāratham - That! Is India'. This show is a celebration of our rich heritage, presented for the All India Oriental Conference in the temple town of Udupi.

Portraying Draupadi's anguish in the Kaurava court is an intensely emotional experience. This scene from 'Krishnaa - Fire to Frost' uses powerful abhinaya and music to convey her plea for justice.

The story of Draupadi is one of fire and resilience. This promotional image for 'Krishnaa - Fire to Frost' sets the stage for a dramatic retelling of her life, brought to life by our Abhinava Dance Company.
