'What would be the contribution of future generations towards it?' Indian art forms are blended with culture and heritage and today, they face a challenge of becoming extinct if our future generations fail to rise to the occasion and take an initiative to pull the cart called 'Indian Art Forms' BR Vikram Kumar forward. They are the wheels which would propel the Editor-in-Chief cart forward through the challenges. A tad of research which I have conducted during the last few years provoked a thought in my mind that incorporating Indian art forms into the education system as a part of their syllabus should be initiated at both State and Central levels. Also, a practical solution would be to support the students who indulge in performing arts. Administration at both the State and Centre should conceive and come up with a 'New Educational Policy' wherein, grace marks would be awarded to students who represent, participate, practise and promote Indian Art Forms. This initiative by the Government would serve as a helping hand to the students who aspire to become art practitioners. Noticing the aforementioned challenge, Union Minister for Human Resources Development, Smriti Zuben Irani should take an initiative to find a practical solution and then implement it early, it would not only create a boom among students but it would also be a boon to those who practise Indian art forms. Such a move would be highly appreciated by all the art lovers and art practitioners in the country. Jai Hind!

It is a story that transcends space and time - a tale of love, devotion, and sacrifice. Rama's story has been written, interpreted and commented upon by mystic sages, poets and musicians, and by the Bhakta (devotee) with utmost reverence and ecstatic devotion. Telling and re-telling the Ramayana has not tired the storyteller, the listener or the viewer! While the essential story of the Ramayana remains the same, its various interpretations through the ages, represent a great diversity in the way the story and its characters are presented. In 1986 the artist Ananda Shankar choreographed and performed the Thyagaraja Ramayanam which explored the character of Rama through the vision of the poet saint Thyagaraja In an all time favorite work for the artist, Ananda will introduce and discuss select episodes/songs from the Ramayana as visualized by Thyagaraja and portray some in visual dance format set to Thyagaraja's music with select Valmiki Ramayana shlokas in enacting roles from the epic story.

These facets have been responsible for sustaining the long continuities of ancient traditions. They are the link between the past and the present. It thus exemplifies the complex, organic interaction of all aspects of life implicit in all tribal and folk art forms; art is not seen as something apart from life, a mere ornamentation or entertainment, but as an intrinsic part of it. Page !1 of !36 Pre-historic Cave painting, Bhimbetka, Madhya Pradesh Under the patronage of Kings and rulers, skilled artisans and entertainers were encouraged to specialize and to refine their skills to greater levels of perfection and sophistication. Gradually, the classical forms of Art evolved for the glory of temple and palace, reaching their zenith around India around 2nd C.E. onwards and under the powerful Gupta empire, when canons of perfection were laid down in detailed treatise - the Natyashastra and the Kamasutra - which are still followed to this day. Through the ages, rival kings and nawabs vied with each other to attract the most renowned artists and performers to their courts. While the classical arts thus became distinct from their folk roots, they were never totally alienated from them, even today there continues a mutually enriching dialogue between tribal and folk forms on the one hand, and classical art on the other; the latter continues to be invigorated by fresh folk forms, while providing them with new thematic content in return.
