Kalakshetra fest: is it on? Nothing official yet.

Will Kalakshetra host a fest this season?

There is no clear answer. Officially.

This famed performing arts campus draws a steady stream of people - well-wishers, alumni, artistes and rasikas.Kalakshetra's legendary dance drama series based on the Ramayana gets a full house: one season, tickets were sold out in the week the booking opened.

On campus, the second auditorium, Rukmini Arangham was affected by Cyclone Vardah late last year. This place is still being repaired, we hear.Nobody picks up calls to the office. Nor has Kalakshetra issued a public statement.

Hopefully, there will be some definite info from Kalakshetra we will be able to share with you in the days ahead.
