Synopsis:
Ritha Devi was born in the cultured and erudite family of poet Rabindranath Tagore and Lakshminath Bezbaroa, father of modern Assamese literature. Ritha Devi feels that she has truly found herself in the lyrical dance-form of Oudra Nritya, the special tradition of the Devadasis of Orissa. Ritha Devi was the first to rescue this art from near extinction and to perform it in many parts of India, Europe and U.S.A. She currently lives in Pune after living for many years in New York, teaching and performing.
