Batu Nritya is followed by an invocatory piece dedicted to a deity chosen by the dancer herself called as the Ishata Devata Vandana. The dancer usually choses a shloka (verse) from Sanskrit or Oriya Poetry. It is a nritya piece consisting of short pure dance steps as well as the abhinaya on the verse. |
