Hi Tara,
Guru Gyan Prakash had choreographed the Life of Jesus based on Mary
Magdalene,
a devdasi like character. It was called Mesphal Bhagvan and performed
at Gyan Ashram
Mumbai.It uses various indian dance styles. His disciples
have published Mudras on the Life of Jesus

christian themes in bharatnatyam and probably the worlds largest
video collection on indian dance.
