A large group of Chinese dancers staged “Adi Kavya-The First Poem,” a dance drama based on the translation of Ramayana by noted Chinese scholar late Prof Ji Xianlin.

The drama, directed by the Chinese Bharatanatyam exponent Jin Shanshan and featuring a cast of over 50 talented local performers, was held at the Indian Embassy here on Saturday. A large audience watched what the Indian mission described as a “stunning cultural confluence” in a post on X.

This is the second time the dance drama was staged in Beijing; the first time being in January this year.

Last month, the Embassy organised a symposium on ‘Sangamam-A Confluence of Indian philosophical traditions’.PTI
