Main Article Content

Abstract

Polymorphism allows for the creation of a generic interface that includes several related tasks. The idea of 'Taala' has been presented in this article with a basic polymorphic technique. Taala is a unique characteristic that indicates the precise rhythm of the song. The various Marga and Desi taalas in Indian Classical music present their significance at different times.  This paper is an attempt to study such classification and the challenges in the reconstruction of Taalas that lead to further adaptations. Through this approach, we explore the possible reasons for polymorphism and its adaptability in modern times.
