Ravindra Bharathi

Ravindra Bharathi is a performance center in Hyderabad with two theatre halls of different sizes for various events. The main theatre accommodates around 1100 spectators, while a smaller theatre seats about 100 people for more intimate shows.

The center was established in 1960 and officially opened in 1961 by dignitaries to create an important cultural venue in the city. Since then, the building has evolved through several modernizations to keep pace with changing artistic demands.

The venue is named after Rabindranath Tagore, the Bengali poet and artist who holds deep roots in India's cultural memory. Visitors find performances here that honor this literary tradition and reflect the country's artistic heritage.

The venue is easily accessible from various parts of the city and offers ample parking space for visitors. It is advisable to arrive early to explore the facility and ticket counters without rush.

The building was among the first of its kind in India designed specifically as a tribute to a Nobel Prize-winning author. This connected architecture with literary fame in a way that was uncommon in India at the time.
