Nupura aims at introducing traditional South Indian culture to the student with a hope that the beauty, grace and wisdom embodied in it will become an integral part of his/her life, whatever his/her dreams and aspirations may be. South Indian classical music and dance, carrying with them generations of wisdom aging back to antiquity, becomes the chief medium of creating awareness in students.

Nupura seeks to conserve and promote an awareness of this rich and heterogeneous cultural ttapestry amongst the students through a focus on the classical arts, with their attendant legends, rituals, mythology, and philosophy to facilitate an awareness of their deeper and subtler values.
