Tad-Bharatham – That! is India

In addition to One India Music Concert, we are pleased to announce an exciting Dance Production – Tad Bharatam, by internationally acclaimed choreographers, the fabulous dance duo Nirupama & Rajendra.



Tad-Bharatham is a dance production that features highly cherished aspects of India and her glorious culture that has spread out in a time span of around six thousand years.

Performed by a brilliant team of ten dancers, the production features elements drawn from India’s classical literature including the epics Ramayana and Mahabharata along with Sanskrit poems such as the Raghuvamsha and Shakuntalam of Kalidasa exploring various sentiments of love, valour, anger, laughter, and celebration.
