Natyashastra (theatrics and dramaturgy)

If it is made in the descending scale whether weak or strong, the transitional notes will lead śrutis to the jāti-rāgas.
Natyashastra (नाट्यशास्त्र, nāṭyaśāstra) refers to both the ancient Indian tradition (shastra) of performing arts, (natya—theatrics, drama, dance, music), as well as the name of a Sanskrit work dealing with these subjects.
