Shree Krushna Bilasha is an Odissi Abhinaya that portrays Radha’s friend describing Krishna’s enchanting appearance to Radha in the kunja (grove). It describes Krishna standing in a stylized tribhangi pose, adorned with a peacock feather and flower garlands, radiating charm and captivating the gopis. The lyrics evoke the beauty of the kunja, filled with fragrant flowers and rustling leaves, highlighting Krishna’s mesmerizing presence.
