Dragvanti (stylized DragVanti) is a web portal dedicated to drag performers based in India.
History.
DragVanti was launched on June 20, 2020 by Patruni Sastry. The platform also connects emerging drag artists to the entertainment industry. Originally, DragVanti was only a website. It became a monthly publication from 2019 to 2021 that was circulated online for no cost. The drag directory was launched in June 2020.
Patruni Sastry who founded the platform says "When I started performing drag in 2019, there was no content about Indian drag available; the only content coming in was that from the West, However Drag is present in classical Indian culture with a mention of it occurs in the Nātya Śāstra, a record of Indian performance art estimated to be around 2,000 years old. Yet today, We don’t acknowledge what drag artists are doing within India” when asked about the intent of creating such a platform.
