The programme would also feature an exhibition of masks at the multi-art Expression and Eco cultural mapping of India, a statement from the Akademi said adding Dhrupad recital in various language would also be performed by various artists.
The masks are of various forms and guise and are one of the many ways through which cultures have given voice to their cognition and most sublte emotions to define their inner and outer realities, it said.
