Our Tribute to
Indian Cinema

Spirit of Itihása Collective is rooted in the navarasas

Śāntam

Shantha is the emotion experience by a content mind filled with peace and with an absence of desire for material comforts.

Adbhutam

Athbhutha is the manifestation of the wonder and amazement felt at witnessing unusual or incomparable objects and events. When the eyebrows are raised, the gaze is slowly directed outwards, the eyelids are stretched to the sides, you have athbhuta rasa.

Veeram

Veera is the passion and eagerness evoked in the heart while the person engages in fighting for good over evil, protecting a just cause and safeguarding the interests of the helpless and have-nots.

Bhayānakam

Bhayanaka is the feeling of panic and dread brought on by the anticipation of danger. It denotes a weakness of heart and a want of strength in character. Fear is the base emotion of the Bhayanaka rasa.

Hāsya

Hāsya for one of the nine rasas or bhava (mood) of Indian aesthetics, usually translated as humour or comedy. Rasa means "flavour", and the theory of rasa, In Gujarati, the word Hāsya simply means "laughter".

Raudram

The rasa that is evoked when one is greatly wronged or humiliated. The base emotion is rage, and is manifested through a readiness to protest and resist, through verbal aggression, and through violence and war.

Karuṇā

This rasa is the manifestation of sorrow, pain, sadness and bitterness that the character experiences as a result of the departure of or parting from loved ones, death, thwarting of desires or an undesirable event.

Bībhatsa

Vibhatsa is a feeling of Disgust or dissatisfaction with oneself and others. Vulgar, uncivilized, and perverted actions, using bad words and manners, and showing bad intentions to others are all manifestations of the Vibhatsa Rasa.
