Dishari Direction-Giver and Cultural Custodian
For the past 26 years, Dishari has been committed to guiding people through its work, successfully fulfilling its mission of cultural preservation and social impact. The name *Dishari* itself signifies "direction-giver" — showing the way forward.

At Dishari, we place equal importance on both classical and folk music. Another key aspect of our work is research aimed at conveying social messages through various dance productions. Additionally, we focus on reviving and preserving ancient tribal arts and cultures while ensuring the protection of their bearers. Through music and dance, we strive to share the teachings of saints and poets with the community, encouraging people to connect with their roots and awaken their cultural consciousness. We believe that music possesses the unique power to foster love and harmony among people.
