🔥 "CHUDAMANI" — HANUMAN'S HEROIC EFFORTS TO MEET SEETA

Epic coming to life again thru advanced art of #yakshagana and my background in yoga, advanced scriptures, diverse cultures, .and much more! Something you can bet learn and experience beyond what recent Boxoffice hits #hanumanansh #kantara etc movies could do!

Celebs from all walks of life have appreciated our Shows throughout last 30 years in Americas and across the world! But this Show made yet another Guiness Record(unofficial) - see below!

At the heartfelt request of our big fan Pandit Bhagirat ji and his family at Satsang, I undertook this performance with just 3.5 hours' notice, following a 2+ hours commute, with complex makeup, elaborate costume, no live musicians(massaging new music takes forever), and no supporting teams whatsoever!

'Challenging the impossible' is my passion since childhood, but how can I get any artist without any notice to perform?! Even my kids were busy in Auditions in remote...! My wife and I grabbed a quick bite(haven't eaten 16+ hrs due to our Show at Pasadena with different story previous night), jumped on the car. Brainstormed new story but it's just my wife and me, dynamically bringing the characters to life!

This was not merely a performance. It's my continued efforts to share our ancient Indian storytelling traditions, advanced Arts, explore the deeper symbolism of Hanuman, and introduce Yakshagana to audiences from diverse Indian communities, including Sindhi, Punjabi, Rajasthani, and other North Indian backgrounds.

As the world rediscovers Hanuman through cinema, may we also discover the timeless spiritual wisdom, devotion, and cultural richness behind his story.

🎭 Watch this small excerpt from our 23-minute performance.
🙏 My heartfelt gratitude to the Panditji and his family, the visiting Guru, and everyone who made this memorable presentation possible.

As always appreciate your feedback!
