Indian Art Culture Dance and Music
In India, dance has long been an integral aspect of religion and culture. Dance was created by the gods, according to Indian mythology. Because it integrates song, drama, shape, and line, dancing is one of the most renowned Hindu arts. Indian dance emphasizes gestures, body positions, and head movements.
A country is as diverse as India is symbolized by the plurality of its culture. India has one of the world’s largest collections of songs, music, dance, theatre, folk traditions, performing arts, rites, rituals, paintings, and writings that are known, as the ‘Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) of humanity.
