Odissi is a classical dance from Odisha, India, known for its grace and temple origins. It is characterised by fluid movements, intricate footwork and the unique tribhangi (triple bend) posture. The dance combines storytelling through facial expressions (abhinaya) and symbolic hand gestures (mudras). Accompanied by Odissi music, it depicts mythological themes. The dancers wear bright sarees, ghungoos.
