The next is a very novel number yet within the parameters of the classical art. 10 dancers of Nritalaya aesthetics society, Singapore, perform 10 Ravanas depicting the 10 heads of Ravan who is on his way to adducting Sita. This number is choreographed by Shri bhaskar and Shanta bhaskar, founders of the well established Nrityalaya aesthetics society in Singapore. The third item is thaye Yoshoda, an all time favourite number describing the various pranks of Krishna performed by Smt Radha, a veteran in the field who started learning Bharatanatyam from Guru Ramaiya Pillai.
