Kathak..an art - Page 6

let me clarify,

if you read my post, I am in way trying to demean Sara or Parul. I am just talking about the show and the flaw of the show.I dont know why it has always to end up with the comparison, if I really compare, then I would say both are pathetic dancers.

Music is said to be in people's blood. My niece from 3 year old could sing classical songs flawless and she was audiioned by no other than Guru Rashid Khan and taken as the disciple.

What I wanted to say is if there is a dance competition, why not train both the girls fo at least a month under a good choreographer and when the production house has such a dancer like Komolika Guhathakurta, just train the girls for a month under her and one can make out the improvement. Like the "nara" or thread tying for Sadhna is one of the best things that they could show. An artist has to have a proper guru and its a formality to tie a "nara" before accepting someone as a disciple. An artist without a guru is said to be a child without a father in the music world...this is reality I am speaking of.

Regarding Parul's movements, the character has problem with leg, not shoulder. First of all, in case a step is not done properly, the choreograoher should omit a step and give a step which suits the actor, and make it more pleasing to the eyes.

and whatever motif it is, if the production is showing a biggest dance competition, people need to feel while watching the show that indeed it is a big dance competition.

Anyway we are off subject.....hehe........back to the subject.........Ya Sadhna looked really graceful in the kitchen.... so they must be training them in some sort of way......hopefully she dances like that in the final round...........

hey Jyoti, I was really impressed with your credentials and you are ganguly and I am ghoshal...😊

coming to the point, there is something called pleasing to the eyes..noone can be picture perfect unless you do a "Sadhna" of the art. otherwise, every other day, one great dancer can be born and years and years of practice will not hold true.

I just want to say, let Sadhna and Ragini do simple steps, but do correct...

I loved the way u hv discussed everything👍🏼..and I do understand if they want to show a real classical dance they should show it properly or just continue with filmi dancing😆..

very well said

i have been trained in bharatnatyam however I have done some kathak and was also disappointed by Ragini's dance! I found absolutely nothing that looked like Kathak!

yes , exactly, dance is a penance. Its no joke, no one , please let me emphasize, NO ONE can learn dance in 4 days, leave alone win a competition beacuse of that learning. I have learnt classical dance (not Kathak, but its called Bharatnatyam) for almost a decade and believe me , its no joke. and here, Ragini and Sadhna are making a mockery of our Indian culture by dancing that way.
