A classical dance from North India, Kathak is characterized by rhythmic footwork and spectacular spins. Under the choreographic direction of Padma Vibhushan P. Birju Maharaj, the living legend of Kathak, 1700 dancers present sounds of nature with the resounding beats of the Tabla and Pakhawaj. This stellar performance concludes with shimmering tinkle of thousands of ankle bells! #WorldCultureFestival | The Art of Living
