Shiva Panchakshara Stotra | Kuchipudi Dance | Kalanidhi Dance Company

Set to Uma Mohan’s beautiful, modern rendition of the Shiva Panchakshara Stotram, this devotional piece is a prayer to the serene yet powerful Lord Shiva. Interspersed with pure dance movements to the jazz-inspired instrumentals, the poem’s five verses correspond to the five syllables of the sacred word Namashivaya. This piece was choreographed by Ramya Durvasula and performed by members of the Kalanidhi Dance Company: Ramya Durvasula, Ankitha Durvasula, Sahiti Rachakonda, Ritika Reddy, and Pragnya Thamire.
