As mentioned hitherto , it was the Bhakti cult which brought about a drastic change , and Krishna Bhakti led to Rasalilas. Maharaja BHAGYACHANDRA {who ruled between 1759-1798 AD} codified the style , and composed three of the five types of Rasalilas. They can be named as Maharas ; the Basantaras ; and Kunjaras.This was performed at the Sri Sri Govindaji Temple in Imphal , and also Achouba Bhangi Pareng dance . He designed an elaborate costume known as " KUMIL ".The "GOVINDA SANGEET LILA VILASA" ,an important text detailing the fundamentals of the dance , is also attributed to him.
