Sthayi

Odissi is a classical dance form from the eastern state of Odisha. The young dancers from Chowk will present Mangalacharan , an invocatory piece, followed by two pure dance items, Sthayi and Pallavi . The performance will end with the Mokshya , the final item of an odissi repertoire, signifying the dancers’ complete surrender as they let go of the individual self and merge with the larger universe.
