Her lehenga (skirt) is spellbinding! I have seen some antique ones belonging to a Rajasthani lady which were made from 30 yards of the finest and lightest fabric, each panel cut in the bias an gathered/pleated to the maximum. Drop dead gorgeous!!!
Is there another version of this dance somewhere? Is there no sound? I love it and have selected this dance to write about for one of my dance courses but curious if another video exist out there or if anyone knows if music was ever used. Thanks.
So glad you're interested! We have this film also on our website with a more complete catalog record that should help answer some of your questions: www.chicagofilmarchives.org/collections/index.php/Detail/Object/Show/object_id/8664

There is also a viewpoint that when she took these dances to India it ignited a renaissance of Indian dance there which was previously regarded as low class and debased
