Maya Ravan, a 2 hour dance ballet where the medium of communication is a union of hand gestures and body movements of some classical dances of India is based on the life of the demon King ‘Ravan’ who rules over the kingdom of Lanka from the great Indian mythological epic ‘Ramayan’.
The ballet portrays the character of the Demon King Ravan as an ambitious, brave yet over confident and stubborn and full of pride personality and his quest to win over Lord Rama and his kingdom ayodhya by kidnapping Lord Rama’s wife Sita. Rama befriends a tribe of primates led by Hanuman who vow to assist him in his quest to bring back Sita. Hanuman goes to Lanka to mediate and bring back sita without bloodshed. Ravan in turn answers by setting Hanuman’s tail on fire!! Thus sown are the seeds of a great battle in Indian mythological history which is beautifully performed in the ballet.
Ravan’s death act leaves the viewer in tears and respect for such performance of art. Says Padmashri Shobana, ‘Maya Ravan is my effort to rekindle and spread the spirit of our culture nationally and internationally, embracing and adopting all the aspects of the value chain ranging from traditional form of dance to popular forms, and technology. The Mantra being – Culture to people and people to culture – Globally’. ‘Maya Ravan’ DVD is priced at Rs. 499/- MRP and is available with subtitles in 5 languages – English, Hindi, Malayalam, Tamil and Telugu.
