A symphony born from the heart of everyday life!

Rumurumurumu is a bold artistic experiment emerging from Bevinahalli in Sira Seema; a village where life and art are inseparable. Conceived by actor, writer, and filmmaker Shraddha Raj, the play is the result of months spent living among local arai and nadaswaram artists, weaving their stories, struggles, and sounds into a collective performance. Continuing the Jangama team’s earlier explorations of community art, Rumurumurumu extends this cultural movement, celebrating the voices, rhythms, and creative spirit of Bevinahalli’s Jiguru troupe.
