Shriram Bharatiya Kala Kendra\u2019s \u2018KRISHNA\u2019 Marks 49 Years of Storytelling This Janmashtami<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Shriram Bharatiya Kala Kendra (SBKK), one of India\u2019s foremost institutions dedicated to the preservation and promotion of Indian classical performing arts, proudly presents the 49th edition of its iconic dance drama KRISHNA, from August 12 to 16, 2025, at Kamani Auditorium, Mandi House, New Delhi. Evening shows commence at 6:30 p.m. daily, with three additional matinee shows scheduled for August 14, 15, and 16, 2025, at 3:00 p.m.<\/p>\n

This richly layered production traces the enigmatic life of Lord Krishna from his divine birth to his transcendental departure interweaving mythology, music, and movement into a profound spiritual and artistic experience. The narrative delves into pivotal moments from his life: his early years in Gokul and Vrindavan, his bond with Radha, his role as a peacemaker between the Pandavas and Kauravas, and his philosophical guidance to Arjuna on the battlefield through the Bhagavad Gita.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is incredibly rewarding to see KRISHNA enter its 49th year,” says Padma Shri Shobha Deepak Singh, the show\u2019s Director and Chairperson of Shriram Bharatiya Kala Kendra. \u201cThe life of Lord Krishna is timeless not just as mythology, but as a guiding philosophy imbued with love, courage, and wisdom. At the Kendra, we strive to depict this journey with emotional depth and artistic authenticity, enabling audiences to resonate with its enduring and universal truths.”<\/p>\n

The production is presented by the Kendra Dance Repertory, a professional ensemble of dancers engaged full-time in the creation and presentation of the Kendra\u2019s dance dramas. KRISHNA has been choreographed by the eminent Shri Shashidharan Nair, supported by his prime disciple and star dancer Shri Raj Kumar Sharma, Repertory In-charge at SBKK. Both bring decades of experience in the Kendra\u2019s signature style of dance drama. This year, to enhance the vitality of the production, several talented young dancers have been inducted into the Repertory.<\/p>\n

The Kendra Dance Repertory of Shriram Bharatiya Kala Kendra (an institution of the Bharatiya Kala Kendra Trust) is supported by the Ministry of Culture, Government of India, and M\/s Shriram Pistons & Rings Ltd, New Delhi.<\/p>\n

SBKK\u2019s KRISHNA is a stunning blend of Indian classical and folk dance styles, enriched by beautifully designed costumes, traditional jewellery, symbolic animations, and a music score that fuses Indian classical music with regional melodies. Each scene is thoughtfully crafted to reflect Krishna\u2019s emotional, philosophical, and divine dimensions\u2014offering audiences a rare opportunity to witness history, mythology, and folklore brought to life with artistic finesse.<\/p>\n

In alignment with the Government of India\u2019s National Education Policy 2020, which promotes cultural learning through the arts, Shriram Bharatiya Kala Kendra invites schools and educational institutions to attend special morning performances of KRISHNA on August 12 and 13, 2025, at Kamani Auditorium. The sessions will include a 75-minute performance followed by a 45-minute interactive workshop exploring themes on Lord Krishna. Bulk bookings are also available to schools and educational institutions for the afternoon shows on August 14, 15, and 16, 2025.<\/p>\n

For over four decades, SBKK\u2019s KRISHNA has inspired audiences of all generations with its timeless message of love, duty, compassion, and truth. The production offers not only an artistic display but also a spiritual inquiry into life\u2019s deeper meanings making it an ideal cultural offering for both the young and the old.<\/p>\n

This presentation stands as a testament to Shriram Bharatiya Kala Kendra\u2019s unwavering commitment to nurturing India\u2019s cultural identity through performance, training in Indian classical music and dance, and public engagement for the past seven decades. As the nation seeks to reconnect its youth with timeless values and traditions, KRISHNA promises to be more than a production\u2014it is an experience that uplifts, enlightens, and endures.<\/p>\n
