I visited Arangetram of nine students conducted at Tilak Smarak Mandir on this Thursday. The students were conducting it as part of completion of their Bharatnatyam training from Kalaniketan Bharatnatyam School, the institute where my daughter goes for her classes.
Arangetram started at 5 PM but we reached there only at 6 PM since we had our office working. The dances were nothing short of amazing. We were mesmerized by the dance, the singing and the music. There was an interval at 6:45 PM when certificate distribution was conducted and students were awarded their degrees. This lasted for around half an hour and after 7:30 PM, the second phase of Arangetram started and multiple dances were done with stories of Krishna Radha, Shiva Tandav and Natraj. Since I had to attend some meeting, we had to leave at 8 PM and we couldn't attend the full ceremony.
All in all, it was one of its kind experience.
