ଓଡ଼ିଶୀ ନୃତ୍ୟ (ODISSI) GROUP PERFORMANCE
Odissi is one of the classical Indian dance forms that originated in the state of Odisha. This dance form has a rich history that dates back to the 2nd century BC and is known for its graceful and intricate movements. Odissi is a fusion of music, dance, and drama, and is often performed as a way to tell mythological stories or express emotions through body language and facial expressions. Over time, Odissi has evolved into a highly refined and sophisticated art form, and has gained recognition both in India and around the world. With its unique style and aesthetic appeal, Odissi continues to captivate audiences and inspire dancers and artists alike.
