The History Of Arts And Entertainments In India
India’s history bears as much changes as possible for the art and entertainment. It has a big past of different rulers which kept on affecting the arts. Every ruler tried to impose the values of its culture and religion over the culture, literature, music, dance, monuments and later on in the dress-wears, language and trends. The great art of architecture in India is still visible from the big domes of the great palaces, or you can find it at the 5500 B.C. old, Ellora caves which still restores the beautifully carved paintings.
India has a diversified influence of almost every religion in the world and which is particularly visible through the literatures and monuments. After Hindus, Janis, Buddhist, and Sikhs, Indian architecture had a major influence from the Muslim Rulers. Then the English came with their Roman effect and merged it with the Indian trends. You can found many old traditional dances (with the Hindu influence) merely matched and done with a flavor of Urdu (Islamic influence) tunes.
The traditional dances like Kathakali, Kuchipudi and a lot of other folk dances with the great multiple varieties of music like Carnatic and Hindustani laid down the base for the recent Indian entertainment industry. We can found the impact of music and culture within the prayers of God which are practiced from thousand of year by Hindus, Muslims and Sikhs inform of Bhajans, Kirtanns, Gurbaniis and Quawallis
The Vedic sculptures and contribution of some great personalities like the Aryabhatta; some great rulers like Ashoka and Akbar had proved their great philosophies which greatly helped in laying the foundation of modern era with developments in the sectors like science, architecture and cinema.
