Our Story: The Beginning
“Where tradition flows through generations”
Virasat means “The Legacy.”
A name that reflects the heart of what we do—carrying forward the timeless traditions of Rajasthani folk dance and art, just the way they’ve been shared from elders to the young, generation after generation.
Born in the city of lakes, Udaipur, our journey is deeply rooted in the soil of Rajasthan. Through every beat of the dhol and sway of the ghaghra, we honour the songs, dances, and puppetry that tell our people’s stories.
Our mission is simple

Hathi Than Haveli from Royal Might to Cultural Light
Did you know?
Before it echoed with music and applause, Hathi Than Haveli pulsed with the power of giants.
Centuries ago, this regal courtyard wasn’t a stage — it was a training ground for royal war elephants.
सोचिए, the धम-धम of mighty हाथी, the shouts of महावत, and kings watching from their झरोखा — this was the real राजस्थानी शौर्य.
आज, that same ground tells a new story — filled with घुंघरुओं की झंकार, कठपुतलियों का जादू, and रंग-बिरंगे लहराते घाघरे.
This haveli has seen power. Now, it celebrates art, culture, and legacy — every show here is a ज़िंदा क़िस्सा of our Rajasthani roots.
