Featured Mohiniyattam Performances and Productions
From sacred temple offerings and intimate duets to full-scale productions like 'Ashtalakshmi', we bring the soulful grace of Mohiniyattam to every stage we grace.
A powerful moment from our signature production, "Ashtalakshmi," offered at the sacred Guruvayur temple. We believe in creating large-scale group performances that are not just visually grand but are a true 'samarpanam,' an offering of our collective soul.
The essence of Mohiniyattam lies in its 'abhinaya' or expression. This is a close-up from a solo recital at Sreeramaswami temple, where every glance and gesture tells a story, allowing the dance to shine through the dancer.
We love bringing classic stories to life through intimate duet performances. Here, we explore the divine relationship between Rukmini and Satyabhama, showcasing how Mohiniyattam can convey complex emotions and narratives.

More than a troupe, we are a family. This candid moment from our 'Upaasanaa' workshop captures the joy and connection we share, which is the foundation of every performance we create together.
We also explore experimental themes, like this piece "Uthara" from the Mahabharata. It shows our creative approach to storytelling, blending traditional adavus with innovative concepts for a unique artistic experience.
Our art has taken us from local temples to international stages. We were proud to present our Guru's compositions at the Dublin Culture Night, sharing the beauty of Mohiniyattam with a global audience.

About Featured
We specialize in both intimate duets and full-scale theater productions like 'Ashtalakshmi,' all anchored in the authentic Bharati Shivaji style of Mohiniyattam. To ensure the quality of our performance, we handle all logistics within Bangalore, including professional backing tracks or live orchestral setups, so that you can focus on the event itself while we focus on the art.
Our approach to performance is rooted in the philosophy of 'samarpanam' or offering. Whether we are performing for a corporate cultural event, a private festival, or a sacred temple space, our goal is to create a seamless experience where the dance truly speaks for itself.
Our Performance Formats
We offer a range of ensemble sizes to fit your venue:
- Grand Productions: Our signature full-length works feature 8 dancers and can include a live 6-piece classical orchestra to create a theater-grade atmosphere.
- Group Ensembles: Perfect for festivals and gatherings, these 45 to 60-minute showcases feature 6 dancers performing traditional repertoire, supported by high-fidelity studio backing tracks.
- Intimate Recitals: Ideal for inaugurations or home gatherings, our duets provide a 20 to 30-minute immersive experience with a strong focus on 'abhinaya' (expression).
Practical Details for Organizers
When booking us, please keep a few technical requirements in mind to ensure a smooth show:
- Space: We prefer wooden or carpeted flooring to prevent injury, especially for faster movements and jumps.
- Tech: For recorded sets, we require a sound system with Bluetooth or Aux connectivity. For live orchestra productions, we need the venue 2 hours prior for sound checks and require professional-grade instrument microphones.
- Logistics: We provide our own Kerala Kasavu attire and traditional temple jewelry. We simply request a private, well-lit green room with mirrors for our artists to prepare.
We love collaborating on creative concepts, so if you have a specific theme in mind or need guidance on curating an arts segment, feel free to reach out and discuss your vision.
