    A few things to note:
    1. Kathak and bharathanatyam are not similar. I am a kathak dancer and trust me as forms, they are very different.
    2. The dance piece presented for the kathak segment is not classical kathak.
    3. The noteable dancers that you have listed for kuchipudi is pretty much just the raja/radha reddy family. There are other dancers as well. Vempati Chinna Satyam is a prominent figure in the kuchipudi dance field and I feel he should have been included.
    Hope you will consider the feedback.

      Kathak being influenced by Islamic culture.. Long time left it's original form..! That's why it's no more similar to bharatnatyam.. Because all over India.. Natya shashtra was common.!

    • @paramamitra7137
      @paramamitra7137 4 года назад +8

      @@ikartikthakur All the existing classical forms have more or less deviated from their respective original forms. In Bharatanatyam there are a number schools which have modified the form conveniently. Similarly in Kathak there are several gharanas. Kathak had originated in UP, and Bharatanatyam (originally Sadir atyam) in Tamil Nadu. So it is natural that their techniques will be much much different. Footworks of Bharatanatyam, Kuchipudi, Mohiniattam are similar in places, which is consistent with the fact that all of these forms had originated in the South of India.
      Different kingdoms came and go and had different influences on the art forms of the particular region. As far as I know, Lucknow gharana shows the Islamic influence you are talking about, but there are other gharanas which have not adapted to the Mughal influence.
      As far as Natya Shastra is concerned, it talks about certain body postures, certain abhinaya techniques which are more or less common in all of the performing arts.

    In Melbourne, Australia we had Chandrabhanu a male dancer who had a school in the suburb of Richmond and performed Oddisi & Bharahathatanyam. My mother took me to watch his performances along with his troupe of dancers from the age of 10. I had a little poster of him on my wall. I saw many performances and still love the music, voice percussion and of course the dances. I used to copy the poses in my bedroom. As a very white girl girl of English background all I wanted was dark eyes and a nose piercing like the beautiful female dancers. Thanks for the memories. (ps. Sorry about my poor spelling)

The present day bharatanatyam was developed by Tanjore quartets and later by rukmini devi arundale before that it was called as Sadir Attam, a mere folk art from from tamilnadu which were practised by devadasis. Natya shastra has nothing to do with any dance forms of india leave alone bharatanatyam.

And one thing initially thus dance was danced by Thevar adiyarkal not a devadasi. Laterly Thevar adiyarkal changed to devadasi and then they are destroyed for change the name the name of sathirattam to barathanatyam. then Brahmins taken this dance in the name of barathanatyam. Nadarajar is a God for dance. The temple is there in Tamilnadu only. This is the proof.

    Bharathanatyam originated in Temples of Tanjore, which is tamilnadu. (i dont know how karnataka is given credits). And no one knows except people of tamilnadu that "sadirattam" (A tamil name) otherwise called as "Dasiattam" (means dance of devadasi) which is banned by british and later revived by tanjore quartets ( again by tamil people) -chinnaya, ponnaya, sivanandam and vadivelu pillai in tanjore during the rule of king sherfoji II. And named it as "Bharathanatyam" (after eliminating all the erotic movements and songs) to mislead british that it is a different dance and not sadirattam. Among the brothers, Ponniah composed several tanavarams, kirtanams, melaprapti, alarippu, jatiswaram, sabdam, swarajati, chauka varnam, ragamalika, padams, javali, tillana, daru, swarapadam, etc., before this sadirattam was just a dance of pleasure. Bharatha muni has no way connected to this and making it mythological with lord brahma is unnecessary. when you are presenting any cultural related things kindly get your facts right!!!

    Bharathanatiyam is a name coined recently when the art form was taken over from the Tamil communities dedicated to the temples art activities from ancient times. It was called as Sathirattam and after all the Tamil kingdoms had their downfalls to Telugu and other North Indian powers. The music especially language used in the art form were taken to other languages that were promoted by the rulers. At the same time the art form was pushed into a situation that misconstrued the communities involved in the art form to a caste system used in North Indian kingdoms as “Devadashi”. When all the Tamil language and art forms were demonized by the Sanskritization both lingually and socially - the British period helped the revival of the art form - when Telugu and other Brahminical North Indian powers were brought under the British. Rukmini Devi Arundale is the pioneer in reversing that social discrimination and help raising the current versions of Bharathanatiyam art form.

    You should do your research or homework better regarding the history of Bharata Natyam the contemporary Sanskrit name of Sadir! Sadir was renamed to safe the art for the future! The Natya Shastra is a treatise about theatre arts not about Bharata Natyam specific! Bharata Natyam source is Thanjavur and the Thanjavur Quartet Paramparai in thr state Tamil Nadu! The original traditional Nattuvanar school of this family line was copied by many such as the institution of Rukmini Devi! That means what Kalashestra is teaching is far from the original school because it has neo-colonial influences. The brutal invasion of the British was one of the many reasons that the brilliant original form was copied and practiced by people outside the community of Thanjavur Quartet Parampara! Now this original form is almost disappeared although there are a few like the custodian kishna brothers who still kept it safe. Around only fragments are left of the original form. The brilliant features are totally gone only a poor artistic copy is left Bharata Natyam is now a dance not an ART!!
