Synopsis

Celebrate the power of peace and inclusion with an evening of traditional folk music, dance, and storytelling that transcends cultural boundaries. Immerse yourself in the vibrant rhythms and melodies of the Indian diaspora, infused with a unique Singaporean flavour. Join us in a joyous celebration of our rich cultural heritage as we embrace our commonalities that make us stronger together.

"Heartbeat of Life"

From birth to death, Indian ancestors have gifted us a rich array of songs and dances that celebrate communal bonding and the dynamics of humanity. Discover the universal truths that unite us all in this depiction of the exhilarating joys and deepest sorrows in a fictional princess's life.
