Titled “Jayati Jaya Mamah Bharatam”, the 11-minute performance was organized by the Sangeet Natak Akademi and paid homage to the 150th birth anniversary of Bhagwan Birsa Munda. The event beautifully encapsulated themes like ‘Viksit Bharat’, ‘Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat’, and ‘Unity in Diversity’, highlighting the nation’s artistic and cultural richness.

The performance was meticulously choreographed, blending traditional and modern elements. The lyrics, penned by Subhash Sehgal, and the music, composed by Shankar Mahadevan, fused classical rhythms with contemporary undertones. Artists adorned authentic costumes, headgear, and jewelry while using traditional props like swords, spears, and drums to bring their dances to life.

Adding to the visual spectacle, experts from the National School of Drama designed over 60 props, including intricate decorations for instruments and traditional items like Poo Kavadi and Ambala Kavadi, alongside puppets and floral elements.

The dance troupe symbolized India’s youth, women’s empowerment, and artistic legacy. Representing various regions of the country, the performers presented a breathtaking celebration of India’s unity in diversity. This grand display of cultural pride left an indelible mark on the Republic Day celebrations, showcasing India’s vibrant traditions and its enduring heritage.
