[@labonighosh2720]

very over experience and not natural....

[@eommayamizzy4652]

Please learn some grammar before critizing a video. And yes it is natural. The actual point is to make the audience understand what you're trying to say.

[@balak839]

Over acting 😎

[@samikshapatil5628]

bala K
it's not over acting.

[@AlexanderaCherie]

That's the point, so everyone in the audience can see the expressions and story telling

[@jayaramkb6513]

bala K in Bharathnatyam it is done like that itself.

[@ot7armymylifemyrules976]

it is not easy don't childishly that is art don't speak this like

[@thenightcorer459]

Bakwas

[@abhipsakhasnobish4431]

[@roshni9003]

Jyotsna Korday it's not over acting and if you don't learn bharatnatyam don't watch this video ok

[@eommayamizzy4652]

Well, I wanna see you do it if you have so much knowledge about bharatanatyam

[@rashmikorday1413]

Over acting and trying act smart ahh

[@eommayamizzy4652]

Oh look! A person who has no literal experience with Bharatanatyam is the one acting like he/she knows everything lmao
