Pandit Birju Maharaj Museum ( Lucknow ) Work with - Vishalaakshi Consulltent (Delhi )

In 2016, the government had converted Pt. Birju Maharaj’s ancestral home in Wazirganj, Lucknow into a Kathak Museum. Kalka-Bindadin ki Dyodhi, as the house is referred to, was the birthplace of Pt. Birju Maharaj, the doyen of Kathak. It showcases the personal belongings like clothes, accessories and books of Maharaj ji and his family who popularised the art of Kathak. In fact, the house was given to his ancestors by Nawab Wajid Ali Shah, a great patron of arts and culture of Oudh.
