  • @MsGossipgirl11 The item is called Mangalacharan and is the first actual dance piece taught to any Odissi dancer.

  • GRACEFUL DANCE.

  • what is the name of the song???please anyone?:)

  • this is the movement of the Universe through Space...

  • why so advertising bengal???

  • @harperofthewiz :-)the thing on her head is called Mahkoot(mukut). It is made of sol(pronounced sole), a plant core. Cutting and moulding sol into mukuts is a delicate art in puri(orissa) and in West Bengal. The Bengalis use beautiful sol headgears as Topor and mukut for groom and the bride respectively. Kindly search odissi in wikipedia for mor information.
