The story at Yakshagana was "SRI KRISHNA JANMA PANCHAJANYA" with artists from Sri Mahaganapathi Pravasi Yakshagana Mandali, Haladi, Udupi Dist. The touring artists are scheduled to present seven plays on seven days, dubbed as YAKSHA SAPTHAHA.






The story situation starts with Kamsa King who decides to kill his sister Devaki and her husband Vasudeva because of some Ashareera Vani, (Unknown voice). They both beg Kamsa and promise to bring their children to him. Kamsa kills seven children of Devaki and eight child was Krishna, who was incarnation of Lord Vishnu. Krishna, when he grows up kills Kamsa.

Music Director V Manohar


Krishna lands up in the Kingdom of MrutyaMalini, who was the Queen. Her daughter Lasithe met Krishna and falls in love with him as he was very handsome. The dance sequence of MrutyuMalini and Lasithe was quite long and beautiful with co-ordination of Bhagavatharu and the accompanying Tabla and Chande. Even Krishna's dance and movements were very high energy presentation. One wonders, how they can go on, on, on.... dancing with different steps synchronizing with singing.


It was fantastic.

Lasithe becomes Krishna's one of many wives, when the prasanga ends.
