Parampara Series 2024 continues the legacy of Natya Tarangini, a renowned performing arts centre established in 1976 by Padma Bhushan awardees Dr Raja Radha Reddy, Dr Kaushalya Reddy, and later joined by their daughters Yamini and Bhavana Reddy. Originally founded to popularise the Kuchipudi style of Indian classical dance, Natya Tarangini has evolved into an institution that nurtures various art forms while preserving and promoting India’s rich cultural heritage.
For nearly five decades, Natya Tarangini has provided a platform for students to learn and perform under the traditional “Guru Shishya” parampara. The institute not only imparts training in classical dance and music but also encourages students to explore choreography and participate in performances alongside their gurus. In keeping with its mission of inclusivity, Natya Tarangini offers free training to underprivileged and deserving students, as well as those with physical and mental challenges.
The Parampara Series promises to be a magnificent celebration of India’s artistic traditions, providing a rare opportunity for audiences to experience the brilliance of classical dance and music. With its carefully curated programme, the festival underscores the enduring appeal of the country’s cultural heritage.
