Warangal: The second leg of the Rashtriya Sanskriti Mahotsav (RSM) 2022 will begin on 29 March in Warangal. Telangana Governor Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan will inaugurate the two-day mega cultural extravaganza. Union minister of culture and tourism G. Kishan Reddy will attend RSM on 30 March.

Rashtriya Sanskriti Mahotsav 2022 started at Rajamahendravaram, Andhra Pradesh, on 26 March 2022 under the 'Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav'.

The Mahotsav will begin with performances by local and folk artists. It will also witness musical performance by Hyderabad Brothers (Carnatic vocals), Padma Shri awardee Darshanam Mogulaiah, playback singer Mangli, and others.

Similarly, the Mahotsav on 30 March will witness performances by famous music director and singer Vandemataram Srinivas and other popular playback singers. The day will see classical dance performance by Padma Shri awardee Dr. K. Padmaja Reddy. Folk artists will perform throughout the day either on the stage or among the public. The main cultural performance will be staged between 5.30 p.m and 10.30 p.m.

Apart from folk troupes, eminent classical artists covering all genres have been performing every year at the Mahotsav. Special care is taken to choose artists who reflect the regional flavour of the state where the Rashtriya Sanskriti Mahotsav is organised. Under Rashtriya Sanskriti Mahotsav, events will be organised at Warangal on 29 and 30 March, while the third leg will be held in Hyderabad for three days from 1 to 3 April.

RSM was conceptualised by the Central ministry of culture in 2015 with the aim to celebrate the spirit of tradition, culture, heritage, and diversity of the country. This Mahotsav aims to preserve, promote, and popularise the heritage of Indian spirit and reconnect the new generation with our culture and showcase to the country and the world, India's "unity in diversity".

The first Rashtriya Sanskriti Mahotsav was organised at IGNCA grounds, New Delhi, in November 2015.
