    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 3 ปีที่แล้ว +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.

      Why all of these dances are from southern India except Kathak. Does that mean Mughals actually copied the south Indian dances and introduced it in the north. If it was originally from North how does north has only 1 and south has 5 to 6 dances.

    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)

      @@SucilanSundar yes, the name sathirattam was charged to barathanatyam. In Tamil literature so many proves are there for this dance. Especially in silapathikaram, Madhavi dance . 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.

    There are some serious mistakes. The instruments used in mohiniyattam are not as shown in video. The instruments used in mohiniyattam are totally similar to bharatanatyam. Even idakkya is used in mohiniyattam. Bharatanatyam is not at all similar to kathak in anyway. And one of the instruments as u mentioned was thalam, but actually nattuvangam is commonly used in bharatanatyam, kuchipudi and mohiniyattam. thalam is basically used in koodiyattam, a dance form from kerala.

      I can't help with the entire piece but I can confirm that Manipuri as an art is fully and completely absolutely focused on stories for Lord Krishna and Radha. The costumes that you saw are Radha Krishna impersonations. That is the standard costume of Manipuri unless the female impersonator wears a plom. The art flourished under the Vaishnavs of Manipur.

    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!!!

    Thanks for mentioning "Shastriya Nrityam", which was the actual name in contrast with most widely used term Classic/Classical Dance. The word classical resonates something which is 'DEAD', either language, culture, art or Nrityam. As Bharatiya Samskruti is living & continuous and not dead, Shastriya Nrityam/Natya cannot be Classical Dance. Therefore is non-translatable word.

    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.
