January 5, 2013

I’d been to attend a multi-media event at the Bangalore Fort.

It was wonderful to see the Fort beautifully illuminated inside…

At the entrance was the famous Ganesha temple, with the Ghandaberunda motif which was the insignia of the Wodeyar dynasty, too:

An excellent play on Tipu’s life was staged:

The cast took their bows later:

There were also Shadow Play sessions by volunteers:

The legend of Tipu the Tiger (and Tipu the Tiger-slayer) lives on, even in the windshields of local buses…
