Indian classical arts spark cross-cultural empathy in European schools
Sohini Roychowdhury, along with Indro Roychowdhury and Sanjib Pal, recently conducted performances and interactive sessions in Austria and Germany, using Indian classical arts to foster empathy and cultural sensitivity among children and young adults. Through Bharatanatyam, sitar music, and storytelling based on Indian epics, they communicated timeless values, reimagining the Navarasas for a new generation. 'Dance has a magical combination of elements that helps us become more in tune with our emotions and how we express them,' says dance exponent Sohini Roychowdhury, summing up the mission that recently took her across schools and universities in Austria and Germany. The dancer conducted a series of performances and interactive sessions designed to foster empathy and cultural sensitivity among children and young adults through the transformative power of Indian classical arts. Joining her were sitar player Indro Roychowdhury and tabla player Sanjib Pal, whose soulful renditions created an immersive atmosphere of curiosity, wonder, and emotional connection. The experience was far more than a performance — it became a deeply engaging cultural exchange. Children from ages 6 to 18, including those with special needs, responded with enthusiasm, particularly during the interactive segments. Sohini led the young audience through expressive Bharatanatyam mudras and movements in a session themed around 'Shiva the Kind.' The performances culminated in a participatory musical segment where Indro explained the therapeutic qualities of Ragas, while children joined in singing and rhythm. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Moments like Sohini's Thillana performance and Indro's rendition of Ahir-Bhairav — evoking imagery of Krishna, spring, and joy — brought India's classical traditions vividly to life. Through dance, music, and storytelling centered on the Rasas and epics like the Shiva and Vishnu Puranas, the sessions communicated timeless values in a universally accessible form. As the ghungroos chimed and the sitar rang through Alpine classrooms, the spirit of India echoed in young hearts. The Navarasa — traditionally the nine emotions of classical art — was reimagined for a new generation as empathy, peace, kindness, love, oneness, understanding, connection, healing and forgiveness.

Kamal Haasan's dual role: DMK views one RS seat as small price to pay
Haasan is a self-proclaimed atheist but on most other political issues, he has been flexible premium Aditi Phadnis Listen to This Article He is more than just an actor. He is a trained Bharatanatyam dancer, an accomplished singer, a choreographer and director, the only one to have got 19 Filmfare awards, the most by any Indian. Seven films starring him have made it to the short list of the Oscars 'foreign films' category. He is fluent in English, French, and six Indian languages, including Kannada.

Shobana mourns the loss of her beloved childhood friend Anita Menon; shares their old photos: ‘Farewell kiddo'
Renowned dancer-choreographer and National Award-winning actor Shobana's childhood friend Anita Menon has passed away. She breathed her last in the early hours of Tuesday. Taking to social media, Shobana penned an emotional note in memory of her dear friend and shared a few pictures from their childhood. She also expressed her deepest condolences to Anita's bereaved family. 'Farewell kiddo. My dear friend. Rest in peace. No more words. My heartfelt condolences to Babu Uncle and Sue Aunty, Satish Menon, Aveesha and Anisha (sic),' the Thudarum actor wrote on Instagram. While one of the black-and-white pictures showed the actor posing with a beaming Anita, another photo, seemingly from their even younger days, featured Anita happily resting her head on Shobana's shoulder as the latter relished a banana. According to Manorama Online, Anita and her family were Shobana's neighbours during her childhood days in Mylapore, Chennai. Although Anita was younger, Shobana shared a close camaraderie with her, which must have been strengthened by their mutual love for dance. Anita was, according to her official website, the recipient of the prestigious Performing Arts Fellowship in 2014 from the US' Regional Arts and Culture Council. She was the founder of Anjali School of Dance, established to 'provide training in Bharatanatyam to students in the greater Portland area' as well. She also directed theatrical productions that were adaptations of William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream and Agatha Christie's Death on the Nile. 'Her productions were known for their big dance numbers using several styles of dance, including Indian folk, ballet, hip hop, jazz and Bollywood,' the note on the website read. A post shared by Shobana Chandrakumar (@shobana_danseuse) Known for her powerful performances, Shobana has won the National Film Award for Best Actress twice and ranks among one of the finest actors in the country. Besides her home ground of Malayalam cinema, she has also worked in Tamil, Telugu, Hindi and Kannada films, leaving a lasting impression in every industry she entered. After a five-year hiatus, she returned to the silver screen playing a key role in director Nag Ashwin's Kalki 2898 AD, featuring Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan and Kamal Haasan. Shobana was most recently seen in Tharun Moorthy's Thudarum, where she shared the screen with Mohanlal, marking the return of one of Malayalam cinema's most beloved on-screen couples.
