@@visalakshik.raman.6278 That is true. Awards are recognition of the service done to the art form. I am unsure what you mean by “negotiable” , but I am sure that Balamma and the family as a whole were never ones to negotiate or be negotiated by anyone.
@@BrindaMukthi Namaste!🙏 I didn't refer to any incident about anyone in particular. But I have heard of some incidents where Awards are demanded rather than earned just by one's merits. Even now we wonder why so many outstanding musicians were never conferred with such prestigious titles and awards.

BALA's monumental documentary was produced and directed by no less a person than the eminent film maker Satyajit Ray.
Thanks for this
Such a privilege to see even a little of her dances
A treat to watch the doyen
can you post Balamma's meenakshi memudam? please please
So this was considered as the world class dancing six decades ago! 🤔
Yes , it is still the gold standard as she is the only dancer till date to be adorned with the Sangita Kalanidhi.
@@BrindaMukthi I am not very sure that Awards and Rewards which are negotiable, really prove the real greatness of an artist!!!
