Sri Krishna Leela Tarangini

Tarangini is an opera highly suitable for dance drama and it has been very well utilized by Indian classical dancers over the last two centuries.

It deals with the life story of Krishna starting with his birth, childhood pranks and ending with his marriage to Rukmini.

Narayan Theertha uses various literary and musical forms such as songs, prose passages, Slokas (praises in verse), Dwipadis (couplets), etc.

[citation needed] Legend has it that the inspiration to compose this piece occurred when he was along the banks of Naducauvery.

[citation needed] Aradhana sabhas by Narayana Tirthar Trust are held annually in honour of the Tarangini.
