You’re Invited!
Dear friends and families in Indiana,
It gives me great joy to invite you to the Natyalaya School of Arts Annual Recital on April 19th at the Pike Performing Arts Center.
Our students have been preparing with immense dedication and passion, and your presence would truly encourage and bless these young artists.
Special Highlight:
This year features a grand Ramayana dance production, bringing the timeless epic to life through the beauty and grace of classical Bharatanatyam.
Please consider this as my personal invitation—Natyalaya would love to see you there and share this special evening together.
🙏 Come, support, and celebrate art, culture, and our talented performers!

❤️Feeling truly proud and grateful❤️
It is incredibly fulfilling to receive appreciation for my own compositions. My Ayyappa Varnam, performed by my daughter during her Arangetram in 2022, continues to be recognized recently, an artist from another state reached out to learn and use it for her students’ Arangetram.
More recently, the Markandeya Varnam I composed for Sneha’s Arangetram in 2024 has also received appreciation, with inquiries coming from India.
I’m deeply thankful to Natyalaya teacher Sharmila Jothirajah for her constant support in all my compositions and productions, and to the orchestra for bringing these works to life.
Most importantly, my heartfelt appreciation to the dancers who beautifully brought each story to the stage.
