Rajula Malushahi The Story

Rajula Malushahi The Story

Performed by Santokh Bisht, Bhawana Kandpal,@ and Deepak Puls, and choreographed by Deepak Puls, this breathtaking act brought the legendary love story of Rajula and Malushahi to life on the grand stage of YUCA 2025. ✨ The tale of Rajula and Malushahi tells of King Dola Shah of Bairath, who prayed to Lord Shiva for a child and promised to marry his son to a friend’s daughter. The boy Malushahi and the girl Rajula were symbolically married as children, but fate separated them. Years later, Rajula defied all odds, traveling through mountains and rivers to find her beloved Malushahi. Their love, tested by time, betrayal, and destiny, became an everlasting symbol of Uttarakhand’s cultural spirit. 🌄❤️ This timeless story, brought to life on stage, celebrates the courage, devotion, and emotional depth of Uttarakhand’s heritage. 🌸🎶
