Legendary classical dancer and choreographer Vani Ganapathy revisits the journey of her landmark production, DWAARAM – The Autobiography of The Door. A beautiful confluence of dance, music, and theatre, it was envisioned as a musical dance with “door” as a metaphor for transition and transformation.
The production was premiered in the year 2013 in Bengaluru and brought several respected names from the world of Indian classical art, such as Sathyanarayana Raju, Srivatsa (vocal and nattuvangam), Lingaraju (percussion), Mahesh Swamy (flute), and Shubha Santosh (veenai), each contributing to make the production beautiful. Vani pays special tribute to percussionist Lingaraju, whose recent absence is deeply felt.
