Hey everyone,
What I don't understand is, why there is only ONE classically Kathak trained duo. Where is everybody? What I see is, locking, popping, spinning, turning, aerial acts but what about our ancient Indian dances? Where is the bharatanatyam, the odissi, the kathak, kathakali etc.. Our indian folk madness.. where is it? Even Shakti said it herself, that she has the privilege of having the only Indian classical duo. Our country is famous for its ancient dances, for the synchonization and not for Michael Jackson kinda moves.
We already have Michael Jackson and other groups based in the U.S. who are really amazing at the locking, popping etc.. why doing tht when we have our own dances?
Western dancing/HipHop/Break Dance is promoted like there is no other dance in India. These days, if it is Nach Baliye, Dance +, DID or India's Dancing Superstar, the Indian dance is nowhere to be seen. Kya hoga humare classical dance par? India's it not famous for western dance, the U.S.A IS. I am actually tired of the aerial acts, the lifting, spinning, turning, ballet kinda moves. Isn't there something else..
Also the women.. WHERE are all the women?? Most of all the duo's, groups, singles are MEN. I personally think that eventually (as usual) a man, male group or male duo will win. It's not fair and I believe that they are biased towards women.
I have nothing against Remo, I love him and his work and respect him a lot.
