In the deepest darkness of the pandemic the devaniya performance team came together without once meeting in person, and a beautiful baby was born. It is true that darkness leads to light if light is what we seek. Krishna came into this world to lead the world into light. This Janmashtami we offer ourselves to the Ultimate and only Truth…God. We call that divine benevolent force by a million names. Truth is, in nothing and everything - God alone IS…..🙏

VASANT UTSAV 2022
May 22, 2022
The rising and setting of the sun and moon, the ebb and tide of waves in the ocean, the flames of passion, devotion and knowledge, the rotations and revolutions of earth and all planets, the winds of seasons and change, the sky of clouds and stars, the sky of ultimate rest….. Everything in the universe is a dance of cosmic divinity…..
On the evening of 10th May 2022, under the auspices of the horizon series of the Indian Council For Cultural Relations and the Saraswathi Educational Cultural and Charitable Trust, the Devaniya presentation at the Vasant Utsav comprised of 5 elements of kathak twirling in and through the 5 cosmic elements, as though at play with them, but in truth, an offering to each of the Panch Mahabhoota, that in unison form the base of all creation.
We are happy to share some pictures of the Vasant Utsav 2022 grand finale.

DANCE MATTERS
November 29th 2019
A review by one of India’s most noteworthy dance historians and critics, Shri Ashish Mohan Khokar:-
That he came all the way to Chennai for Vistaarana in place of a dance conference in China, and then watched the show from beginning to end with a keen and focused observation in itself is the highest praise one can receive.
