Goddess Bhagavathy, with her furrowed brow, unruly hair, and bared fangs, is not a symbol of comfort but of confrontation. This work is not a retelling of myth, but a reckoning with inherited devotion, gendered power, and the dualities women are often forced to suppress.

Bhagavathy embodies contradiction — protector and destroyer, feral yet compassionate, ritual-bound yet resistant. Drawing from Bharatanatyam while gently expanding its edges, this solo performance allows the goddess’s many realities to emerge: war-bringer and preserver, ancestral force and untamed present.

Through movement, sound, and silence, the performance asks: What do we revere in a goddess? What have we rejected in shaping the divine feminine? And what happens when divinity refuses to be soft? Bhagavathy is a journey into the ferocity of grace—the sacred, untidy feminine in a form that will not be contained.
