Learn more about the dance:
For Madhavi Mudgal, Indian classical dance presents a dynamic and continuous process of exploration and renewal. She believes it holds infinite potential for innovation and creative expression. With this faith in the traditional form, its intricately structured framework does not bind her; on the contrary, it provides her a reservoir of possibilities. Vistar offers an experience of the traditional dance form of Odissi with a contemporary sensibility. The Nritta (abstract dance highlighting rhythmic structures), and Abhinaya (expressional) elements are interwoven with a creative approach that results in a unique synthesis.
