In Hinduism
Natyashastra (theatrics and dramaturgy)
Source: Shodhganga: Kohala in the Sanskrit textual tradition (ns)Parāvṛttatalā (परावृत्ततला) refers to one of thirty-five Bhaumī types of Deśī varieties of Cārīs—“movements that involve the simultaneous movement of the feet, shanks and the hip”, according to Kallinātha’s Kalānidhi commentary on Śārṅgadeva’s Saṅgītaratnākara, 7.1016 (Vol. IV, pp.313-317).—Bharata’s Nāṭyaśāstra explains thirty-two varieties of cārīs—sixteen bhaumīcārīs and sixteen ākāśikīcārīs. Śārṅgadeva follows the definitions and the classification of cārīs up to this point. In addition Śārṅgadeva also names and explains deśīcārīs of the bhaumī-cārīs and ākāśikī-cārīs varieties. [For example, Parāvṛttatalā] In all, Śārṅgadeva describes fifty four varieties of deśī-cārīs (35 bhaumīcārīs +19 ākāśikīcārīs).
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. It also teaches the rules for composing Dramatic plays (nataka), construction and performance of Theater, and Poetic works (kavya).
