Nalanda Nritya Kala Mahavidyalaya participated in 'Worldwide Classical Dance' 2026, held on 17th January 2026 at Thackeray Natya Mandir (Mini Auditorium )
The event served as a significant platform celebrating Indian classical dance traditions and artistic collaborations. As part of the programme, Nalanda Nritya Kala Mahavidyalaya presented a specially curated group performance that integrated three Indian classical dance styles — Bharata natyam, Kathak, and Mohiniyattam.
The performance was set to a Tillana composition in Ragam Kadanakuthuhalam highlighting rhythmic vitality, expressive clarity, and stylistic diversity while maintaining aesthetic harmony among the three forms. The choreography demonstrated the common classical foundation as well as the distinct movement vocabulary of each style.
The presentation concluded with a thoughtfully structured Dashavatara sequence, symbolically depicting the divine incarnations through group formations and expressive storytelling. A total of 9 participants took part in the performance, reflecting disciplined training, coordination, and collective artistic effort.
The entire production was presented under the able guidance and mentorship of Dr. Smt. Uma Rele, Principal of Nalanda Nritya Kala Mahavidyalaya, whose vision and leadership were instrumental in shaping the conceptual and artistic framework of the presentation.
