Event Description: Guru Vidushi Geeta Chandran, Padmashri and Sangeet Natak Akademi awardee, celebrates timeless tradition, artistry and devotion through the Arangetram of her disciple, Anvita Jain.
Hosted by Natya Vriksha, the premier institution founded by Geeta Chandran, this ceremonial debut will be graced by Chief Guest Shrimati Malini Awasthi.
Apart from being a debut, an Arangetram is a sacred offering. At Natya Vriksha, it reflects Geeta Chandran's unwavering commitment to tradition and training. She curates this milestone with rigor and devotion, turning it into a powerful dialogue between guru and shishya, rooted in discipline and artistic depth.
At the centre of this year’s presentation is Anvita Jain, a dedicated student shaped by Geeta Chandran’s artistic guidance. Since the age of seven, Anvita has been training at Natya Vriksha, where she has imbibed not just the technique of Bharatanatyam, but also the profound philosophies that Geeta Chandran so distinctively shares.
