Kartik Naach - Narasingh - Hiranyakashyapu - Nepal
Performers dressed as Daitya Gaan, followers of Hiranyakashyapu, perform during the eighth day of the Kartik Naach at Kartik Dabali, Patan Durbar Square, in Patan, Nepal, on November 3, which extends into November 4. The drama depicts Hiranyakashyapu’s tyranny after he receives Brahma’s boon that he cannot be killed by man or animal, during day or night, on earth or in heaven, or by any weapon. The Daitya Gaan enact arrogance, chaos, and the rebellion of demons, creating tension that sets the stage for Narsingh’s arrival to rescue Prahlad and restore dharma.
