Origin of Indian Kathak-Mughal dance (Uyghur dance)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2024
- Kathak represents one of the eight forms of Indian classical dances. The name Kathak has been derived from the Sanskrit word 'katha', meaning story. Thus, 'katthaka' means the one who tells a story. Kathak focuses more on the footwork of the dancer. The movements are skillfully controlled and performed straight-legged, by dancers wearing the ankle bells (ghunghroo). The costumes and themes of Kathak are often similar to those in Mughal miniature paintings.
History
Initially, dancers known as 'katthakas' used to perform in village squares and temple courtyards across the country, unfolding mythological and moral tales from the ancient scriptures. They used to support their recitals with hand gestures and facial expressions. Music and dance were used by them to illuminate the story and to enliven it up. With time, this dance took the form of Kathkalakshepam and Harikatha in southern India and came to be known as Kathak in the north.
Kathak faced a drastic transition due to the influence of Mughal dance and music. In fact, it is believed to have gone through its greatest transformation around 15th century. Primarily a temple ritual, the dance form later changed to fit royal court entertainment, mainly due to the Mughal influences. The 'kathakars' developed a style for pure entertainment of the emperors. After the decline of Mughal Empire, these performers were patronized by other kings, such as those in Rajasthan and other minor princely states.
Costume
Female Costume
Sari is the traditional costume for women in Kathak. It can be worn either in an everyday style, or tied up to allow greater freedom of movement during dance. However, more commonly, lehenga-choli is worn by women dancers, with an optional odhni or veil. Then, there is the Mughal costume, which consists of an angarkha, with tight fitting above the waist and the skirt portion explicitly cut on the round, to enhance the flare of the lower half during turns. The legs are covered by the churidar. Peaked cap, bandi or small waistcoat and a belt made of zari or precious stones are the optional accessories.
Male Costume
Talking about the traditional costume for men, in the classical dance of Kathak, they go bare-chested. Below the waist is the dhoti, which is usually tied in the Bengali style. The dhoti is tied with many pleats and a fan finish is given to one of the ends. The Mughal costume for Kathak comprises of kurta-churidar. The kurta can be a simple one and is at least knee-length. Men may wear an angarkha as well and also have an option of wearing bandi. Their optional accessories include the small peaked cap.
Ghunghru
Ghunghru (or ghunghroo) forms an important constituent of the Kathak dance. It comprises of small bells that are tied around the ankles of a kathak dancer. The kathak bells are different from those used in other Indian classical dance styles, as they are not affixed to a pad or strip of leather. Rather, they are individually woven along a thick string.
Elements
Kathak is the beautiful result of the Hindu and Muslim cultures. It embodies and reflects the dance characteristics of both the cultures. Drama, mood and sentiment and pure dance technique comprise of the three main aspects of this dance style. The elements of Kathak include linear and circular extensions of the body, controlled hand and body movements and intricate, rhythmic footwork and fast pirouettes. These elements, when combined with a dancer's divine and spiritual state, make it one of the most mesmerizing dance forms in the world.

We Uyghurs have such rich history, Culture and traditions and we should be proud of it.
Love from a Uyghur (kaşhgari) from Pakistan 🇵🇰 💕 to all my Uyghur brother and sisters.
There are statues in Antarctica that are dressed in Uyghur clothing 🤫🙃
Kathak has 2 version
1) hindu temple dance that comes from natyashastra which predates other of your dance dating back 500bce
2) mughal version of kathak when they culturally appropriated kathak which has some central Asian influences.
Present day no one performs mughals version of kathak as its corrupt and dance of prositicute and no kathak has got nothing to do with ugyghur mainly the present day kathak.
Ugyhur got Indian influence from from mughals as neck gliding, tapping feet and mudra comes from India.
There are references of Kathak art in Mahabharata texts and Sanskrit and Prakrit references dating back to 4th century B.C. so I'm not sure if I can agree with the title of this video. None the less, it's a beautiful Uyghur art form. Beautiful and unique indeed.
guys if you happen to see real kathak performances from India, you will realize that kathak has also influenced gypsy dances like flamenco which apparently went to spain and europe..
@@lovereachable I wasn't that bad if I consider other people having wars right here
and you should also just ignore/kick out anything you don't find fruitful
Beautiful Uyghur dance!
It's incorrect to say that Uyghur dance is the "origin" of Kathak. Kathak existed from the 3rd & 4th century & finds mention in the transcripts. Later it took inspiration from Bhakti Movement & Krishna Radha leela was added. It was only in the 16th century during the Mughal rule, that Uyghur influenced Kathak, and gave its trademark 'Chakkars' (twirls) to it. Its true that today Kathak is differentiated from other classical dances coz of them, but the origin of Kathak is Bharat's Natyashastra
Exactly...
you can say what you like but straight legs and chakkars (spins) definitely come from this...just add mudras (hand justures),abhinaya (expressions) and ankle bells from Bharata natyam (South indian dance) and you get Kathak, which is probably a fusion of the two, the fusion between muslim and hindu culture...
I disagree my friend because this dance form came when kathak was already in existence and talking about Indian 8 forms of classical dancing they are all interconnected to each other without one preceding other, talking about Bharat natyam and kathak they existed together although bharatnatyam became a mature dance form before kathak
She is the best dancer we Uyghurs have... Dilnar Abdulla
This is so true. I noticed so much similarity between Kathak and the Uyghur dance
They are completely different
So many thanks for you!!!you have done a lot of works on uyghur culture.
I love the dance from this video - the dancer is very graceful. Uyghur is my favorit style from among Central Asian dances. And I love looking for those connections between Kathak and Central Asian dances
Because there are Indian influences in ughur dance

Это не доказуемо так как нашей культуре тысячилетия😍
@aranyalma999 Umm, no, Khatak is a dance that leans more towards the fight choreography and combat style. Kathak is a story telling dance. Khatak is different from Kathak in the sense that Kathak started off in the temples of north and western India and was fused with Ballet Afsaneh and Uyghur dance (but latter only for court dances). However, unlike Khatak, Kathak still has retained the original 24 single and double hand mudras and hastaks from its traditional form. There is no comparison.
amasing Uighur dance!!!!
Beautiful!! Beautiful!
Incredibly similar to Kathak. This is just Kathak in a different accent or dialect. And this is one incredible performer of uyghur.
No there are not similar at all
No they are not 😂
ew bitch ..... कथक में तमीज़ और अनुशासन का बहुत ध्यान होता है और इसमें तो ये डांसर खुद से कुछ भी कर रही है कोई नियम नहीं है । ये तो गावों के स्कूलों में भी लड़किया करती होंगी भारत मे। कथक का सस्ता कॉपी पेस्ट।
कृपया अपना गूगल ज्ञान और यूट्यूब रिसर्च यहाँ न फैलाएं।
@@lll2282 I study kathak and there are some similarities, like the position of the arms and hands at some moments, the tension in the fingers, the fast turns, the stomping, turning of the head in the direction of the arms, the rule that the arms mostly stay on their own sides and don't reach across the body much, no or very little bending of the legs, and several other things.
But the geometrics is different, there isn't as much symmetry as in kathak, there's more bending of the body etc. And of course kathak has all the complex rules and meanings.
The basis of the costume is similar to the Lucknow Gharana costumes but the accessories are completely different and the skirt isn't a full circle like in kathak, it's actually more than a circle.
All in all, it's much more similar to kathak than to European, Chinese or even South Indian dances. But still, it's very different from kathak. Some of the movements are similar but it's obvious that it comes from a culture that works with music, rhythm and movement symbolism in a different way.
welcome! glad you liked the videos :)
That was really awesome !!!

Its all copied culture from iran india and Mongol
@@lll2282
Завидуешь
It is called the classical dance of India and its classical origins are traced to India also because its terminology and mudras are in common with the South Indian classical dances of India. The myths the Kathakars conveyed before it became "classical" are of Hindu origin. We may have Uyghur elements but only AFTER the Mughal influence. Jaipur gharana currently has been most faithful to pre-Mughal influence. Quoting Nahid Siddiqui and Shovana Narayan. Try arguing with them, why don't you.
It's weird, I have nothing in common with Uyghurs, I'm from Central Europe, but I feel this is exactly what DANCE should look like. It's wonderful - cheerful yet tender, energetic yet fluent, and the dancer is perfect! Thanks for the upload!
MartaEzis thank you!!
As an proud Uyghur, I have always felt and to this day that our beautiful culture and history been deprived and stolen from us in result of that we have become once powerful the forgotten nation under the rule of communist China.

Mughal kathak definately is similar, particularly the dress and spins. However Indian kathak is about powerful feet movements to rhythmic drums and is probably rooted in Tantra. Please see the movie Arpan, Chetan Ananda's classic, for some real Indian kathak at around 46.30-54 minutes. This tantrik kathak looks nothing like Mughal kathak and is performed by the legendary Sitara Devi and is available on TH-cam.
SADDHA G. This video talks about history. You should appreciate history. O'course modifications in art are influenced by culture so no point defending what modifications and evolution happened later.
Sitara itself is persian word. So is dev..
İn that times turkic muslim empires included huge territories, from China to Mekkah, was muslims(turkic persian altogether)
@@redshield3843 We mostly have Saraswati Veena in our classical music and dance, not sitar. It is a very recent addition
@@zipzap570 there is an important point. This is cultural appropriation. Kathak dates back to 2-4th century and is derived from the Sanskrit word Katha which loosely translates to "storytelling of God's and scriptures" Every mudra is a divine depiction. It mostly came to be associated with the worship of Lord krishna. This dance borrows from Kathak but it is not Kathak as it lacks the spirituality and religion that Kathak is about. It is more like a bastardized version like mujra.
Kathak has history more than 4000yrs.....written stories in lord Krishna and radha were dance together and people used to perform kathak In Temple to worship god.
kathak dance is like degree course, which include Raag, Laya, Taal, Expressions , every hand ,foot work and facial expression is unique meaning, written in ancient books "Natyashastra" in 2400yrs ago.
It takes 12yrs to learn complet Kathak...

Welcome, not everything is written on history books or wikipedia ;) When we hear a new idea, even if it's self-evident truth that we can see with our own eyes, we tend to bocome blinds...just because we were "told" different view or we read in a material....
Exactly lol during time of mughals, they introduced Indian culture tocentral Asia even kushan did same. Ughur dont even have written history and kathak is much older than ugyhur dance so u guys copied it from us
this is Uyghur dance !

Come on ... Indians learnt it from uyghur but they can't spin this fast and gorgeous ... And facial and neck movements r not as graceful and cheerful as uyghur dance ... This is much more better
It's not even close to kathak.
Indians don't dance with fake artificial posture.

Катхак фокусируется чёткое движение кисти рук, ног танцовщицы, разворачивается по всей стране, мифологические сказки из древних писаний. Они используются для поддержки их концерты с жестами и мимикой. Музыка и танцы были использованы для освещения истории.

They're not eight but nine so far, & probably soon 10 or 12, it doesn't matter. Not all of them began in the courts (actually, Kathak didn't begin in the court either). Yes, Kathak is the only one with Mughal influence. That's why in not only Indian, but rather "Hindustani". Hindustan was a much wider part of the Mughal empire. The base of the Hindustani music is Persian. And that's why this video is so important! Of course the Uygurs gave a huge influence!
Who is the lady in the dance? Where did she performed? Graceful, energetic and expressive!
It is not at all kathak, Indians always have the tendency to take credits now they even say taj mahal was built by some hindu ruler. I myself is proud of whatever India owns but the fact is fact.
Тадж-Махал построили Уйгуры
@@user-xr6kw1ov5b Taj aa bulit by Shajahan who was half Indian half turk
Origin is an overstatement. The modern kathak form was heavily influenced by Persian and Central Aisan dances during Mugal times
If you follow all Uighur dance videos on TH-cam you can see that Iranians can even do the 1 part of it !
Iranians got a big influence from ancient Uighur culture as Kashgar was the center of Silk Road
never seen persian dances
Kathak has only one influence from central Asia that is turns even Turing style in kathak is very diffrent nothing to do with iran or Persian
Thanks for this vedio now do I know kathak did influence central Asian dance 🤣 as kathak origin is 500bce shaped is form in 4ce way older than entire ugyghur existence
Exactly! The kathakas were just travelling from town to town, like minstrels! This arbitrary "classical" classification started very late, by the 1920's... There's not such thing as "classical" anymore. And they keep adding dance forms and changing the names. The point here is to acknowledge that the Uyghurs contributed a lot.
Nope. Please don't distort facts. Kathak dates back to 2-4th century and is derived from the Sanskrit word Katha which loosely translates to "storytelling of God's and scriptures" Every mudra is a divine depiction. It mostly came to be associated with the worship of Lord krishna. This dance borrows from Kathak but it is not Kathak as it lacks the spirituality and religion that Kathak is about.

@@AbJuly you are an idiot womens katak is from mughal empires turkhis persan dance of swords
No wtf stop distorting facts
Well, I can do no more than smile skeptically at your "Kathak dancer" self-captioning. While it may not have been "India" it was definitely all "Hind" before as the name of the land originated from the dominant river of the area (that being Indus). Kathak originated in Taxila as a folk dance, gained its lyrical aspect in the temples and therein began the codification of the abstract. Then it did become a classical dance and with the Mughal Influence the Darbari aspect came to be.
Exactly.
Maybe you're confused with Raslila. Scholars still don't know if Kathak influenced Raslila or viceversa. Religious stories were just part of the repertoire. Shovana Narayan has published very good books about her researches, I recommend them. And if any doubt you can even contact her. She's tremendously open when you show true interest.
The Kathaks (storytelling priests) were first mentioned in the Mahabharata in 4,3 century BC. All the sculptures (Google ''Bharhut panel dancers'') around that time and after in North India show that the dancers dance with straight legs and already have similar postures with today's Kathak (Knee bent came later in India: dances tend to complexify later rather than earlier). The cultures of India and central Asia have been in contact since a very very long time so it's difficult to say who started what. They are also many cases of parallelism : similar movement can be found in different dances that have never met - we are all humans beings that get inspired in our art from our everyday life and what's around us. In the end it really doesn't matter to know who started what first!!
me too :)))))))) there are unfortunately no instructional dvds on how to dance uyghur dance :'(
TH-cam: Uyghur dance
Kathak is basically Mughal court dance and its Turkik origin cannot be denied. But very few Indians will agree with this as Indian cant see anything good coming out of India or Veda. BTW I am an Indian.
Sir I disagree to your opinion as kathak simply prexisted the Mughal era although it can't be denied that after their arrival their culture did contributed to our existing dance form
Self loathing person with identity issues.
Believe me, you're not Indian.

This dance looks more modern a Mix of chinese indian iranian dance.
can chinese dance?
Do you think they teach it on line? It looks hard.
@balpk If you're quoting me, at least get the spelling right, even if you think it's a mistake. Khatak or Khattak is a fight-based dance in Afghanistan. Kathak is a lyrical dance from India. Read up before you ridicule. Especially when arguing with a dance student.

@@tutsimutsi9613 it doesn't even come close. I SWER! My classical dances are older than the word "Turks" or any of your ethnicities.
Although the influence is obvious, there are two factors nobody ever mentions or seem to notice: many folk dances of Asia are quite similar. One could find huge similarities between Kathak and folk Rajasthani dances as well, for instance. The second thing is: many modern Uyghur dancers are also exposed to Kathak and even Ballet, so unless we can travel in time, the lines between styles will remain blurred...
And if you notice the Uyghurs, CentralAsia & Turkiye music they have also been influenced by EGYPTIAN+ETHIOPIAN/ERITREAN classical music, songs and soft sounds with a slight variation out from classical to a more common man people's life songs. All this i mean before islamisation.
And the EGYPTIAN, ERITREAN/ETHIOPIAN cultures and thier black/brown people directly look similar to the South Indians and the wider brown Indians in terms of features, looks, and almost 90% of the ERITREAN/ETHIOPIAN music and songs, voices are almost the same as the classical INDIAN CARNATIC music and TAMIL/TELUGU/KANNADA/KERALA(SOUTH INDIAN CARNATIC)+SANSKRIT.
It is 100% possible that Ancient Indians and their Emperors and people would have been the culture & custodians in these regions as well and technically ERITREAN/ETHIOPIAN and to a large degree the UAE people's(ancient UAE before islamisation in the BC's).
You can all agree to DISAGREE, but that's okay. Because the TRUTH may be sleeping or hidden or deliberately suppressed, but the Universal TRUTH from nature will one day be out in the open and starring at our face and conscious, where it's accepted by the World.
The Uighurs carefully preserved and over time further developed amazingly beautiful dances. Many dance elements that currently exist in dance can also be seen in wall paintings and frescoes of the ancient Buddhist cave temples “Myn Uy” (a thousand houses), located throughout Eastern Turkestan. These “reproduced” dances and dance elements were called “Kusan Ussuli”.
The study of Uyghur dance is important for the development of both Uyghur dance itself and world choreography. In itself, the problem of preserving and developing Uyghur folk traditions, the originality of dance forms, dance types, genders and genres is of great scientific interest.
Hah, kathak was ancient temple dance much before rajputs and mughals made it a court dance. Ughyur dance is not as experienced as kathak, nor it has so elaborate literature like kathak. Dont be mislead by heading.
All I wanted to say that the root of both is the same, the people were the same, they were separated by force, invasions, forceful mixing with their invadors. Dravidians, Aryans, Sumerians, Uyghurs, Hungarians,Schytians, Parthians, Egyptians were the different names for the same people. Both dances have the same origin, belonging to the same people of Sun religion. They have grown apart, since their people were separated, and they are minorities, their culture has been tabu for their invadors.
@immu1981 "Kathak is different from Kathak in the sense that Kathak"...
Yeah... sure... -.-
Amazing! What is the name of this song?

kathak mix with Uyghur folk dance....
No it's not
The Uyghurs definitely are an old tribe & culture, an amalgamation of IndoChinoCentralAsian people mix. Their music raga, voice and some if the instruments are seemingly influenced from partly ancient Indian cultures & partly Chinese(Mongal people) since the raga, sound and certain voices types are found in many indian tribes/cultures and on Mongal tribes/culture songs as well.
In observing the Uyghur songs & music you notice it is distinct/unique & mostly different from Persian/Hindustani. Yhe Uyghurs definitely were influenced by Mongal & Indo tribes since their music and songs, voices mostly depicts natural common people songs & culture from day to day aspects of life in the tribes. The same is true of many Induan cultures/tribes whose songs, music represents common man's day to day songs & instruments(look at Rajastani, Bhojpuri, Marathi, Odiya, Telugu, Kannada, Tamil, Punjabi, Bengali, Kerala, Konkani, Manipuri, Assami, Naga, Gujjar, Sindhi, Kandhari(ancient Afghan was Indian culture and still are), Kashmiri, Sanskriti (Uttranchal), Singala (Srilanka was ruled by ancient Tamils),
The Persia & Arab people for some reason have varying sound/voice/raga & varying music instruments to Uyghur and Arab/ME/Persia mostly concentrated in Court couture and using for belly dancing. To be fair to Persia, they were technically brother's of Indians dye to almost similar beliefs and customers before they Islamised by Turkik & Arabs.
And don't forget the present day Turkiye people are not the true representation of olded days(the current dday Turks are an amalgamation of Mongols+Greek+Latin+ Arabs). Thats why you see the Turks inherited the Uyghur/Central Asia & IndoChina variance in thier music, songs and dance and Not the Arabic/GreekoLatin.
To sum it up, the Central Asia/Asian side of Eurasia + Turkiye culture, music & songs, voice & instruments are so influenced by Chinese & Indians adopting the softer melodies. To be more specific look at all these Indians Tribes/cultures and thier music i mentioned above and especially the South & Central Indians(includes Maharashtra, MadhyaPradesh, Odiya, Bengal, TAMILS, Telugu-Kannada, Kerala) they all had & still have several subcultures within.
The Uyghur/Turkiye/Central Asian & Mongols + Samy/Finnic/Germanic/Celtic + Latin/Greek + Aramaic/Hebrew all have several music similarities to TAMIL & South Indian music & songs.
Please remember, it is still debated about Greek kings PANDEON 1/2 etc., in BCs are of Indian/Ancient Tamils. The ancient Three Kings of Tamils could have possibly been the Patrons of Greeko/Roman/Arabic(in old days PEDRA was the most important and sacred. All all over EurAsia worshipped powerful gods & goddesses, including Ashera, the goddess depicted with 2 lions), Athena was powerful, Mari(is both rain & snake goddess) in Eurasia & Europe. The Mari raon Goddess is a main deity in all of Southern India & fir TAMILS. All over the world the Tamils have DRAVIDIAN ARCHITECTURE Temples built for MARI AMMAN(see London, Europe, US, Singapore, Malaysia, Srilanka, etc ,).
So the ancient Eurasia & ME/GULF & PERSIA & CENTRAL ASIA, Russua, North Africa(especially EGYPT) technically an extension of ancient Indian cultures. If you notice the ancient Kings/Queens/etc., from Egyptian Tombs & mummy's they all surprisingly have a TAMIL/INDIAN origin names including AKHENATEN, TUTANKHAMEN, RAMESIS and 100s of them 😀

@jamilbrugsen1362
I like Uyghurs & their dance, music, they are wonderful 👍
The thing I disagree with was the mention that Uyghur is the mother of all dances, etc., that's a big stretch.
Just Google or search on TH-cam, you will find 1000s of 100000s of wonderful songs, dances from India(old, new, classical, hindustani, Bollywood, Kollywood, Tollywood, etc) & China.
The Indian Movie industry is the world's largest(not even hollywood). It's 21st century, so just Google it and update yourself.
I like Uyghur' songs & dance, so try promoting it.
"ghunghroo" is for " qo'ng'iroq"(uzbek/oghuz begs)- it means bell.
Тогда не было узбеков и огузов были Уйгуры
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Gunghroo comes from Sanskrit word which is oldest language in the world
if it is katak then where is tatkar in this dance and base of katak is on the book natya shastra which is written by Bharat Muni and it was many years ago before the Mughal s so don't give wrong information about katak please try to be honest and don't try to interfair in Indian classical dance and it's shastra
this is completely different from Indian dance.... Indians don't shake their heads while dancing
Yes, they *_do_* shake there heads in at least *_*some*_* types of traditional/Classical Indian/Pakistani/Bengali/Sri Lanhan/Nepalese dances!
Yes, 9. There has been a recent addition. Bharatanatyam, Kathakali, Mohiniattam, Kuchipudi, Odissi, Kathak, Manipuri, Sattriya and Gaudiya Nritya. There are about four or five more awaiting the "classical" classification, one of them being Andhra Natyam.
No accurate "dance student" would call Kathak a "lyrical" dance "from" India. It's much more than lyrical and there was no India in those days. It appeared during the Mogul Empire, and Afghanistan was part of it. And no, it didn't started off in the temples. And no, there were no traditional mudras. I'm a Kathak dancer. Research more & be happy! :-)
Могольская Империя это Уйгурская Империя?
It did start of from temples and mughals just culturally appropriated it
Ьул "Kathak-Mughal" деген бугунгы уйғыр мен кандай катысы бар? Индия тарихында "Mohal emperor" кезі болды,бул империяны Шыңғысхан урпатары курған,Моғал деп аталатын бул империяны Казактар курған, бірақ "евро центризим" бул шынайы тарихты жасырады.Бугунгы таңда индие ғалымдар мойындайды-Моғол империясының кураушысы орта азиядан келген"кыпчактар" деп."Kathak-Moghal" деген атыда осыны айтып отыр, Казакстаннің Жетысу,балкаш, Тараз,және кытайдың СУАР дың солтүстік жағы, тарихта"Моғолстан" деп аталады. Бугунгы уйғыр деп атап жүрген халык сол 15 ғасырда"Жаркент" мемлекет (бул мемлекеттің хандары Шыңғысхан ның урпағы биледы) тінде болған,олкезде булар"уйғыр" аталмаған,тек"кащкарлык,хотанлык,аксулык" деп өздеры турған жеры мен аталған. Бүгінгі уйғырлар кызык екен, шынайы тарихты жаксы зерттеу керек кой🤪 уят кой!
Сіз қазақтар қытайдың үгіт-насихатын осында итермелеуге тырысып жатырсыз ба?Мен жабайы қазақтардың ежелгі ұйғыр мәдениетіне қалай қызғанышпен қарайтынын және қытай достарымен ұйғыр тарихын қайта жазуға тырысатынын білемін - бірақ бұл жұмыс істемейді, өйткені ұйғыр тілі , тарихы , архитектурасы және артефактілері барлық фактілер кім екенін көрсетеді . ұйғырлар.
лондон, Париж және Берлин мұражайлары ұйғыр жәдігерлеріне толы.
қазақтар - тарихы мен мемлекеті жоқ жаңа және жас этнос, қазақтар - дәретханасы жоқ және барлығына бір бөлмелі юрта бар көшпенділер
Uighurs are ancient people -read and learn about uighur culture.
do not read fake chinese historical books.
do not be jelous to Uighur culture
Wtf🤣 mughal were turk, kathak means story in Sanskrit as kathak is lyrical dance and kathak is 4ce dance way older than ugyhur existance
I love her dancing, but find this music very unsatisfying.
as salam alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh
to all muslims everywhere.
Waalaikumussalam Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh 🙏🏽
Am I in Benjin?
Afghanistan was as part of Mughal empire as South India was part of Mughal Empire it does not mean they followed same culture or lifestyle that Mughals did. The Khattak you were talking about is danced by men in Afghanistan with swords and is not same as Indian kathak that is danced by women with anklets in their feet lol
All of the Indian classical dances evolved from both regional tribes/ folklore /cultures + influenced/taught/adopted/adapted from Tamil & South Indian classical suffisticated dance BHARATANATIYAM This is also scriptured and believed to have been taught to the Tamils by the Primordial God & Goddess(Shiva & Parvathy) who were the father & mother of all gods/goddesses and all known and unknown universes.
Just Google it folks instead of spreading cock and bull fake stories like Uyghurs have taught Indians the kathakali. Ancient Indians were masters and the rulers of the planet earth, and most modern humans of today were seeds sown by Indian ancestors.
I'll give a simple example. In ancient times, the so-called sumerians/persia had one of their most ancient city or town with a name called UR. The Uyghur has the name ending with UR.
The name UR is a Tamil name, and it's meaning is a place(it can be a city, town, village, or a place or denotes a person's nativity depending on the context of the situation word). Fortunately, the word UR continues in existence in Tamil and 75-85 million Tamil people know meaning of word UR. I'm not sure how many people in Uyghur, Turkiye, ME, PERSIAN, GULF & ARAB know about what is the ancient city/town UR and why it was called as UR and the meaning 😊.
See, I told you the Indians were the forefathers of modern human civilization, and the Indians history timeliness goes much much beyond your comprehension and understanding and most if the rest of world wouldn't even want to listen and accept the Universal TRUTH.
So please know your origins better❤
Origin is not Indian Kathak-Mughal dance it is uyghur daNCE
+ot yurek keep dreaming hahahha
Kathak is temple dance older than mughals histroy
Most of the modern world people from ME, Persia, GULF, Arab, Turkiye, Central Asia and Western Countries do not know about your origins and ancient history because every few thousand years , you keep changing/shifting your beliefs/ideology/religion/etc., and mostly get forcefully influenced by the powerful at that time, that changes ir resets your entire originality and culture and true origin, ancestry, beliefs and to a degree your languages(I assume many ancient languages and many cultures would be extinct by now). Mostly Europe, Central & Northern Asia would have been very cold with ice(not habitable), and GULF, ME & North Africa(except Nile river rich Egypt) would have been inhabitable and would have been adverse.
Only in last 5k-9k years the ice glaciers melted in europe and Northern/Central Asia. It is also true until ME/Gulf/Persia was nit doing well. Onky in resent times were oil was found in the early 1900s that made the region rich. Before that, the survival in desert were hard and restricted to only certain fertile spots, so the main help was from India & China trade routes
So, to sum it all up, to say that the tribal, primitive cultures like Uyghurs had taught Indians how to dance is the biggest stretch and lie in this video title. It's the Indians from ancient who kept spreading out as the snow and glaciers started melting in search of greener pastures and also copulation and intermarriage, etc ,. Please note that mostly the native modern human people in Europe or Central Asia or China or Japan, Turkiye, etc., were not necessarily white but were black/brown. It would have taken several generations(of selective breeding, closebreed, neposim, racism, ill/wicked stuff, and probably also eradicating the black/brown people) in these geographies are a possibility.
So the moral of the story is that it is far-fetched to dream of an idea to cook a story that from Uyghurs came Indian dances !.
It did not appear during Mughal Empire its much older form of dace that was based on religion since ancient times. It just became official court dance during Mughal rule. Do you seriously believe that some how randomly a new form a dance appeared out of no where in 16th century that was mostly based on love between Radha and Krishna ( hindu deities) and Naikyas ( Hindu poetry heroins) in Islamic court? lol
The Mughal Empire was centered in Indian states of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar where this form of dance has flourished since ancient times. Its no brainier if you know Indian history these states have been home to many Indian empires that has united South Asia into one nation since Mauryan empire 300 BC. Even the famous courtesan Ambapali who donated her Mango gardens to Buddha lived there. The region is known for its courtesan culture in ancient times called Nagarvadhu.
Kathak in mainly Indian dance form and Uygurs dont even call it kathak and its their folk dance and not classical dance. There are other folk dances in India that looks very much like Kathak like Haryanvi folk dance from Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. Where Kathak actually originated!
9? There are only 8 classical dance forms they are non-folk dances, If you see other folk dances of North India Kathak is no different from them.
I like Uyghurs and their culture, dance and songs❤
No offence, but i see the video title and comments mentions Uyghur is mother of Indian dance. That's a lie and a big stretch. The same like the Greek/Roman/ME/Turkiye/Persian belief that the earth is flat, the sun revolves around the earth, etc.,etc.,. In older days there were many pagad gods & goddesses worshipped in these geographies, and now the majority believe in one god. And after a 1000 years these may again change.
The mother & father of all modern humans, civilizations & cultures and the mother of all languages is from IndoAfrican and so is the mither of all ancient dances and folk songs.
The mother of all dances in India were from various Indian tribes, folk songs, folklores, etc , and Bharathanatyam(that came from dance and songs with body moves, facial expressions and depicting/narrating a story, poem, societal, people story, morals. The dance have suffisticated rules & songs/sounds all have suffisticated rules all came from Indians(and are several 1000s and 1000s if years old).
May be the ME, TURKIYE & ARAB, CENTRAL ASIA regions have been pasturel and the Indians might have taught them, the same like technology, medicine, astronomy, astrology, cooking tasty foods, costumes, etc.,. The world's most suffisticated scriptures(it has modern science, medicine, astronomy, maths, algebra, scientific formulas, herbs/food medicine, ayurveda, adharvaveda,i.e., martial arts. Just ask the chinese, Japanese, korean and Asians on who were tge masters that taught them martial arts, it's all Indian masters). India and Indians had/have martial arts & varma skills(about entire body, veins, pulse/vital points, etc., )practised and documented for millions of years much before GREEK/ROMANS/ME/TURKIK/PERSIANS were not even born.
Can can you believe the Indians were taught by the gods/goddesses and supernatural being's for the welfare of Indians who inturn helped the wider world.
Again i like Uyghurs, so don't use such dumb titles and keep claiming you folks taught the Indians.
Ancuent Indians were Gurus/masters to the world, just because the West, Persia/Turkik looters ransacked and looted the stuff and then call every thing is either yours or created by you(by hiding the truth). But ancient Indians had already mastered the whole world and civilized it much before the time the modern world countries(including greek, roman, ottoman, Persian, etc., existed).
PLEASE SEND ME ANY LINKS OF A BEAUTIFUL INDIAN OR PERSIAN OR GREEK DANCE- YOU CAN NOT
@jamilbrugsen1362
Can you firstly define what is meant by beauty ?.
Beauty exists across the whole world in all geographical country & their women/people's.
There is no such thing as Superlatives to define beaty to any one country, women. Every country on planet Earth has beautiful women.
Just define what is meant by beauty or beautiful women.
@@pagangod_Infinity you can not.i saw horribalbe indian dance and dark indian dancer -can not compare with UIGHURS.
WATCHED PERSIAN -THEY CAN NOT EVEN BE COMPARED WITH UIGHURS ,SO SIMPLE AND PRIMITIVE.
GO TO UIGHUR BEAUTY SHORTS AND WATCH MORE UIGHUR DANCE .
BY BEAUTY I MEAN -MUSIC, NATIONAL CLOTHING, PHYSICS OF DANCERS,DANCE MOVEMENTS
this not kathak....this is theater dance...
It is Uyghur dance.
Rohan Rohansingh its uyghur dance, common in turkmenistan too, and its pretty old. Older than Kathak.
the dance has little similarity to indian classical kathak and indeed a graceful one but both the dances have different origins because kathak orignated pre mughal and pre ugyur around 400bce with engraved proves of it on walls of indian temples where as entire ugyur histroy goes back around 4 - 5 bce max...
They should have used traditional turkic music for the uighur dance not wetern music!
The Uighurs carefully preserved and over time further developed amazingly beautiful dances. Many dance elements that currently exist in dance can also be seen in wall paintings and frescoes of the ancient Buddhist cave temples “Myn Uy” (a thousand houses), located throughout Eastern Turkestan. These “reproduced” dances and dance elements were called “Kusan Ussuli”.
The study of Uyghur dance is important for the development of both Uyghur dance itself and world choreography. In itself, the problem of preserving and developing Uyghur folk traditions, the originality of dance forms, dance types, genders and genres is of great scientific interest.
Officials try to present khatak and kathak as 2 totally different, not related dances. But the truth is that the Afgans were the same people, Arians/Huns/Sakas/Scythians...Ujgurs/Hungarians..
Free 3 million UYGHUR from consentrationscamp!!! Free our political preseners!!!
Yeah, I think you need to find out the definition of "arguement" and "discussion" before you start shooting your mouth off and stating unfounded opinions with your limited knowledge. Knowledge sharing can happen only when you have some of it. An opinion is just that. You've defeated me in the sense that I do not know how to argue with a mule. It's akin to running against a solidly constructed wall. I'm done with reasoning against ignorance.
Better than Madhuri
Haha! There are not even "classical" dances anymore! To Sangeet Natak Akademi (which is the Indian authority in this matter), "classical" is a very poor umbrella term. They should be called "major art forms". Of course it'll take a while to change the jargon.
They're open-minded people. They don't argue. They discuss. Discussing means that you love knowledge & love sharing it. Arguing people... well, they just love to prove they right.
Cheers!
All 8 classical dance forms of India and classical music is contribution of courtesan cultures from different parts of the country and Kathak is no different. Only difference is Kathak drew certain central asian dance influnces under Mughal empire. As mughals descended from mongol tribes from Kazakhstan and Uygurs are related to them
it doesn't look like kathak...
Cool! Just remember "India" is a very recent "name of convenience". The Mauryan invaders were Greek and there was no Kathak before common era (BC some still call it). ;-)
Bullsit the mauryan was from maurityius maroc egiptians greeks is albaneze they invade egyptians languages of egiptians before arives the arabs and greeks was cuneiformes not greeks not arabs the maury was indo egiptians becouse north africa maroc was egyptian empires 500years and formed maroc egyptians peoples pur bloods egyptians from sumer like iranians and indo khus they are brother geneticali the greeks is white slavic albaneze syupids men dont try to steal identities of other nations the greeks was beaten in north india and maury is coming befores the greeks long time ago the maury was egyptian and was eztablised in north india after they go in maroc and maurytius after they invade spain the maury the greeks invade spain no no stop bulsit stupid greeks thieves
