    10th Oct, Sun, 1999
    Hessarghatta, Nrityagram

    (Photos/pics for this travelogue might be available on My Tourism Photo Album)

    Again, I went on a small trip. The place is called Hessarghatta (its a lake)  45 kms away from my place.  Also, there we went to place called Nrityagram (founded by Ms Protima Gauri, mother of actress Pooja Bedi.  She died in year 1999 in landslide in the hills of UP while going to Amarnath). They have made the place very good.  Its a place of international repute.  There are three Gurukuls in Nrityagram: one each for Odissi, Mohiniattyam and ????????.   They take only 8 students each year for a Gurukul, that is 24 students in total.  And the students are all females.  There's no full-time residential course for male students.
