Harikatha exponent Dushyant Sridhar discusses the growing trend of collaborations in the cultural scene, particularly during Chennai's Margazhi season. He highlights his 'sangita upanyasams' which combine spiritual storytelling with musical performances by renowned artists. Sridhar also mentions 'katha nrityam,' a fusion of narration and dance. Addressing audience engagement, he suggests harikatha discourses attract a larger, younger audience compared to traditional music and dance concerts.
