The red carpet was rolled out, the chandeliers sparkled, and cultural legends gathered under one roof for the grand announcement of Mahabharata: The Opera — a never-before-seen Indo-Russian musical spectacle that’s all set to shake up the global entertainment scene.
And no, this isn’t your typical opera — it’s a high-octane East-meets-Eurasia production with ancient Indian soul and powerful orchestral drama. Think Bollywood intensity meets classical opera finesse, and you’ve just scratched the surface.
The Masters Behind the Magic

At the heart of this majestic production are two legends from two worlds — Russian musical maestro Igor Evard, known for his symphonic brilliance, and India’s very own music trailblazer Dr. Jaan Nissar Lone, the powerhouse behind ARMS Record Label and the man making waves with his soul-stirring soundtracks and global collaborations.
While Evard will compose the opera, the original idea and libretto come from renowned Russian philosopher and creative visionary Dr. Sergey Dvoryanov, who’s long dreamt of blending the spiritual wisdom of India’s Mahabharata with the grandeur of Western musical tradition. But it’s Dr. Jaan Nissar Lone who’s giving this dream its heartbeat — bringing in the firepower, the fusion, and the Indian soul that will ignite global audiences.
Bollywood Style Meets Operatic Stage
Forget everything you know about opera. Mahabharata: The Opera is going to be a sensory storm. With multi-language lyrics, cinematic storytelling, and a cast of performers from across the world, this show promises to be the Lion King of mythological musical theater.
Dr. Lone’s involvement ensures that Indian instruments, ragas, and even Bollywood-style emotional highs will seamlessly fuse with European orchestration — a first of its kind. This isn’t just an opera; it’s a musical blockbuster on a global stage.

BRICS Culture Media Forum: The Powerhouse Behind the Production
The driving force behind the cultural thunderstorm is the BRICS Culture Media Forum, with Dr. Lone at the helm as Global President. The Forum, known for championing peace and cultural harmony through art, is going all in to ensure Mahabharata becomes more than just a performance — it will be a global movement.
And the timing? Perfect. With the world craving stories of unity, spirituality, and soul, Mahabharata: The Opera lands like a divine gift — offering hope, healing, and high notes.
