On the 10th of May, Santanu Chakraborty gave a Bharatanatyam performance at the IHC in Delhi. The performance began with a pushpanjali, an offering to Lord Ganesha, followed by shlokas. The next piece was a mela prapti. It is a pure dance piece as an obeisance to Lord Shiva who is worshipped as the God of dance. The last piece was a Tillana in raag Valachi in adi talam, a solo by Santanu.
