Based on the poem written in 1936 by renowned Hindi writer Suryakant Tripathi Nirala, Ram ki Shakti Puja is presented in three classical dance forms- Chhau, Kathak and Bharatnatyam.
Directed by Shri Vyomesh Shukla(a renowned poet, writer, and translator), the dance drama presents one of the stories from Ramayana by young teenage actors from Varanasi. Shri Shukla has been associated with Roopvani for many years and chose the subject to commemorate seventy years of completion of Nirala’s poem.
