The Daily Guardian|September 16, 2024
Ganesa Natyalaya, one of India's most prestigious Bharatanatyam dance institutions, is marking its golden jubilee year with a special performance titled NIMAGNA.
GANESA NATYALAYA CELEBRATES GOLDEN JUBILEE WITH BHARATANATYAM PERFORMANCE'NIMAGNA'

Scheduled for Thursday, 19th September 2024, at Kamani Auditorium, New Delhi, this event is part of Swarna Saroja, a year-long celebration commemorating 50 years of the institution's rich legacy. The 75-minute performance, choreographed by Rama Vaidyanathan, will feature an ensemble of 25 dancers and serve as a tribute to Ganesa Natyalaya's esteemed founder, Guru Dr. Saroja Vaidyanathan, on her birth anniversary.

'NIMAGNA' derives its name from a Sanskrit word meaning "immersed," a concept central to the performance. It aims to immerse both the dancers and the audience in a state of spiritual elevation, tapping into the profound emotions or Rasa that form the foundation of Bharatanatyam. The performance aspires to take viewers on a transcendent journey, blending dance, devotion, and artistry to evoke an immersive experience that resonates deeply with the ancient Indian philosophy of dance as a spiritual practice. Indian texts often highlight dance as an art form capable of elevating the soul, and NIMAGNA beautifully embodies this principle.
