MAHISHASURAMARDINI – nritya natika

Inaugral day of the 31st Natya Mahotsav of Natya Shastra Vibhaag, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathawada University, Aurangabad on 2nd June 2008 at Tapadiya Natya Mandir, Aurangabad
The story and idea depicted is as follows in the poem given below.

“Mahishasuramardini is an age old drama depicting the victory of the good over the evil.
The evil is no less powerful, in fact it is powerful than the Mightier, the gods.
He is intelligent, brave and strong.
All the gods come together and create a power “Shakti” which has the combination of all powers from all the gods together. This is manifested in the form Durga.

In the myth, with her charm and valour, she lures Mahisha and finally overpowers him.
