18th October 2025
Ahalya Dance Academy was honoured to be invited by the Telugu Association of Scotland (TAS) to present a special performance at their Diwali celebration in Glasgow. The event brought together the community to celebrate the festival of lights through music, dance, and cultural traditions.
Ahalya presented a divine Bharatanatyam performance – “Ai Giri Nandini”, narrating the powerful story of Mahishasura Mardhini. The dance seamlessly combined devotion, strength, and grace, capturing the spirit of the Goddess in every movement. The audience watched in complete silence, deeply moved by the performance, and it concluded with a standing ovation.
The costumes were designed and stitched in-house by Ahalya team, perfectly aligned with the theme and enhancing the visual grandeur of the piece. The dancers radiated the power and elegance of Devi, creating a spiritually uplifting experience for everyone present.
It was a memorable and divine evening for Ahalya, reflecting the academy’s ongoing dedication to artistic excellence and cultural expression.
