A separate Rang Mahal has also been constructed with glittering lights and festoons for the entertainment of the King. It is in this Rang Mahal that Anu Choudhury presented her dance performance.
Th actress dances to the tune of a Odia film song “Priya re Priaya re”. King Kansa not only enjoyed the dance and expressed his appreciation but also danced with the actress on the stage. Some of the king’s courtiers also shook a leg with the popular actress for a few minutes.
The show was a crowd puller with the crowd swinging to the song and clapping to the performance of both Anu and King Kansa.
