November 28, 2022 (IANSlife) One of the most prominent and well-known creative institutions in the world, Prabhat, The Temple of Art in Bengaluru, is all set to provide Delhi residents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness The Mahabharata in person.

The institution will present six outstanding performances of the acclaimed multimedia dance musical, "18 Days - Dusk of an Era," which is based on the Kurukshetra war of the Mahabharata.

''The dance musical not only portrays the story of the Kurukshetra war in a distinctive fashion but also endeavors to address the unanswered questions of the readers of Mahabharata. Our production is a unique blend of martial arts, levitation techniques, classical dance forms, animation, aerial, symphony-style world music, and much more for a tantalizing experience for viewers. 18 Days also includes actual Sanskrit texts from Mahabharata and the storyline is meticulously tailored in English to reach viewers of all regions,'' said Bharat R Prabhath and Sharat R Prabhath, Art directors of 18 Days.

A truly remarkable experiment, 18 Days vividly depicts the Kurukshetra War in the Mahabharata, the revered epic written by the sage Vyasa, and shows the greatness of India in terms of ethnic diversity, classical dance, drama, and music. The goal of the dance musical is to unravel the web of conspiracies and schemes that were used to orchestrate the battle of Kurukshetra by following the one and only path of truth, the law of Dh(K)arma.
