Omkaar - Festival of Indian Classical Dance and Music

Omkaar is a festival where Jyoti Kala Mandir invites dancers and musicians to present their new composition and choreography. Omkaar gives the platform to Gurus to present their personal experience through the mature solo performances as well as present their work through their performing students and companies. Omkaar is also an educational and entertaining event which allows viewers to see different classical style in one stage. We have received much great feedback with appreciation of witnessing uniqueness and beauty of different classical dance form with expert Gurus and their senior dancers.
