Bhawani Mandi

Bhawani Mandi is a town and a municipality in Jhalawar district in the state of Rajasthan, India.

The town was developed when some of the richest families of the region were invited to come and settle here.

[citation needed] The state patronized music and drama in the early years and the presence of Bhawani Natyashala, a reputed theatre in those times, bears testimony to this fact[2].

Renowned ballet performer the late Uday Shankar hailed from the court of Jhalawar.
