Ramleela without Ravan Dahan in Vadodara, only 60 artists to perform

First time in the 40 years history of Vadodara city, Ramleela will be held without Ravan Dahan. The decision is taken in view of the Covid 19 situation and the safety of the artists. This time only 60 artists will perform Ramleela in one and half hours performance on 15th October on the occasion of Dusherra.

North Indian Cultural Association (NICA) Vadodara is known for organizing Ramleela on grand stage every year features nearly 150 artists at one stage. The Ravan Dahan and cracker show are some of the highlights during the celebration attended by people in big numbers.

However Corona pandemic put brakes on the celebration and the event was not held last year. However, this year due to government relaxation only Ramleela will be organized at a small scale with sixty artists playing the popular characters.

“First time the Ramleela will be organized without Ravan Dahan in view of the Covid situation. Only sixty artists will play popular characters and it includes new artists. Some social issues like unity, terrorism are also highlighted during the performance. This time we are giving chance to upcoming artists to play main characters in the Ramleela, ” said Pravin Gupta President NICA.
