On June 5th, the fourth edition of the Vimal Bhaskar National Awards to celebrate service to the performing arts was hosted by Dr. Nandkishore Kapote and the Nandkishore Cultural Society. It was fascinating to attend these and witness the award being bestowed upon Dr. Puru Dadheech and Dr. Vibha Dadheech. Dr. Puru Dadheech held his lecture-demonstration 'Kathak through the lens of medieval texts'. His lecture was conducted under the aegis of the Tagore National Fellowship of the Ministry of Culture, Govt. of India. Dr. Sunil Sunkara, Dr. Piyush Raj, and Harshita Sharma Dadheech assisted with the demonstrations.

I had the opportunity to write about this wonderful event and was delighted that Narthaki published my article. The entire article is available on https://narthaki.com/info/rev22/rev2715.html
