GROUP Ambika Kameshwar’s group presented episodes from the life of Ramana.LALITHASAI
‘Ananya Ramana’, a multimedia presentation by Ambika Kameshwar and her group paid obeisance to Ramana Maharishi at the Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, Mylapore. The show was staged under the aegis of Kartik Fine Arts as part of their 35th year art festival, and it was well received.
Inspired by the book ‘Timeless in Time’ written by A. R. Natarajan, Ambika’s father, Rajkumar Bharathy conceptualised this presentation and went on to write the script and score music for the same.
The final product was a well-conceived dance drama with select compositions. It had a good balance of heavy and light ragas _ Harikhambodi, Kalyani, Behag, Sindubhairavi and so on. Classical art was integrated well with multimedia.
