Nava Rasas in Bharatanatyam

Nava Rasas in Bharatanatyam

Bharatanatyam owns a unique place of pride in the world. Our motherland, India, can be proud of this wonderful and life-science rather. There are a lot of things that Bharatanatyam -- the art of Dance teaches us and emotions are quite elegantly described as Abhinayas.

  1. Sringara Rasa
  2. Raudra Rasa
  3. Veera Rasa
  4. Hasya Rasa
  5. Karuna Rasa
