Watch Padma Shri Haladhar Nag performing in a goddess avatar

Bargarh: Eminent Koshali poet Padma Shri Haladhar Nag was seen performing in goddess Lankheswari avatar at Ghess in Bargarh district yesterday.

Adorned with garlands and ornaments and holding two sharp weapon-like ceremonial objects, Nag danced to the tunes of ‘Nagada’ and ‘Dhol’ and thereby participated in the village Parikrama.

A large crowd gathered at the place to watch the poet playing the character of goddess Lankeswari, the presiding deity of Paschima Lanka (Sri Lanka). The cultural event ‘Ram Leela’ is organised by Ghess Durga Puja committee during Dussehra every year.
