Krishnadasi – Colors new show on culture and myth


Many of us have heard about Devdasi. But only some of us know the meaning of it. It’s in old indian culture. A devadasi is a girl "dedicated" to worship and service of a deity or a temple for the rest of her life. The dedication takes place similar in some ways to marriage. Originally, in addition to taking care of the temple and performing rituals, these women learned classical dance forms Bharatanatyam, Odissi and other Indian artistic traditions. They enjoyed a high social status as dance and music were essential part of temple worship.


But things slowly changed to the other way around some powerful and wealthy personalities misused this things. When the culture demolished they used it as prostitution in the name of religion. The devdasis have to agree to it not finding any other way for them. 


Colors TV have come up with a good concept which focuses on the cruelty of the Indian society which grades women as per their convenience “Krishnadasi”. The protagonist of the show Radha hails from this devdasi background who have no idea about her father and again falls in love with a boy whose father strongly against their family.

The popular RJ turned actress Sana Amin Shaikh will play the lead with Chavvi Mittal making a comeback with this new show. I recommended the show to all viewers as the show has a new concept on emphasizes on old Indian culture and traditions. For more entertainment watch Colors TV live inSingapore.
