On the auspicious occasion of Akshaya Tritiya, April 19, 2026, the cultural landscape of Puducherry was enriched by the magnificent Sangeeta Arangetram of Dhivya Priya Bhavanani. In a stellar three-hour concert that featured a demanding and full repertoire, Dhivya captivated an erudite audience, earning resounding applause from esteemed guests including senior Vidwans Kalaimamani Shri S.V. Jagatheesan and Kalaimamani Dr. K. Rajamanikkam. The atmosphere was further sanctified by the presence of Param Pujya Ammaji, who blessed the occasion and expressed great joy in Dhivya’s flawless ex*****on.

This performance served as a profound tribute to her Guru and father, Yogacharya Dr Ananda Balayogi Bhavanani, celebrating a monumental milestone: his 54th birthday and the completion of 50 years as Madathipathi of Sri Kambaliswamy Madam (Samadhi site)Sri Kambaliswamy Madam and lineage holder of the Rishiculture Ashtanga (Gitananda) Yoga tradition. As the Deputy Director of Yoganjali Natyalayam, Dhivya Priya proved herself a formidable leader of the tradition's "young brigade," stepping into the future as a torchbearer of this illustrious heritage with grace, precision, and deep-rooted devotion.

With the blessings of the divine and our beloved Gurus, Yoganjali Natyalayam warmly invites you to the Salangai Puja of Selvi Sreyoshi Basu, a beautiful milestone marking her dedication and devotion to the sacred art of Bharatanatyam.

On this special day (10.03.2026), we are gathering not just to witness a ritual, but to celebrate a young dancer’s journey, discipline and love for this divine art form. Let us all come together as a family and community to bless and encourage her and to rejoice in the timeless beauty of Bharatanatyam, a precious cultural treasure of our Mother India. Your presence will truly make this occasion even more meaningful.

Please come with family and friends to celebrate, bless and experience the divine through dance.

🙏✨🥳
