A two-day Bharatanatyam masterclass by Dr. Padmaja Suresh from Bangalore unfolded as an enriching journey of expression and rhythm. Her choreography “Vasant Ritu”, set to the evocative lines “चैत चिंता लगी जीव को, तन पे कछु ना सुहाय..”, beautifully portrayed the emotions of the Prosh*tpatika Nayika. The presentation flowed into the vibrant spirit of Holi, bringing alive the Raas of Krishna, Radha, and their sakhis with colour and devotion. A seamless blend of abhinaya, storytelling, and grace marked the experience, culminating in an energetic Tillana.
