Jahnavi

Gentle, graceful, and full of force, the Ganga calls you to her banks.

This Bharatanatyam performance follows the river Ganga from Gangotri to Varanasi, bringing her changing moods to life through choreography, music, and visual design. What does it mean to travel a river as a pilgrim does, one verse at a time?

The performance evolved from the choreographer's work on the official anthem for Namami Gange, the Government of India's mission to rejuvenate the Ganga. Set predominantly to Sanskrit verses, the work treats the river as a thread connecting places, people, and generations.
