              #Indian Dance Forms



                 Indian classical dances are inspired by history and mythology. India has many dances, coming
                 from every state in the country. But there are only six forms  recognised by India on a national
                 level. They are Bharatnatyam, Kathak, Kathakali, Manipuri, Kuchipudi, and Odissi. Each
                 dance form has a specific costume, extensive jewellery, headgear, etc.


                 Find out information on any ten Indian dance forms and prepare a project file with pictures
                 and information. You may also create a PowerPoint presentation and then take a printout.
