The Maharashtrian art form of lavani has been around for centuries, states Bhushan Korgaonkar, co-founder of city-based artiste platform Kali Billi. “It’s always been an entertaining form of art. Fortunately, over the years, the practice has managed to retain that element,” he shares. On October 17, Korgaonkar will helm the Liberate Through Lavani workshop, a two-hour virtual session that will introduce participants to the art of lavani, with the help of lyrics.
