Kandhanin Perumai regales audience
August 8 2009
The Academy of Bharatnatyam was established in 1999. Last month, the Academy put up a programme called "Kandhanin Perumai", where 20 students participated in it. The evening was a grand success as some people felt they hadn’t seen enough and asked the dancers to perform all the items again.
It started with the Pushpanjali, an invocation to Lord Shiva, which was followed by Subramanya Kavuthuvam – a prayer to Lord Muruga or Kandhan. The child-performers were Aditi Ramalingam, Thushara Pears, Kanchana Pears, Varsha and Disha Gomathinayakam, Malini Malur and Gowri Prabhakaran.
The footwork and coordination by these dancers who performed for the very first time on the stage was excellent. The same dancers continued with Aurmugamana Porul, a semi-classical dance depicting the six Karthekai Pengal with the inclusion of three more Murugans for this dance. They were Aruni Ramalingam, Anuja and Kumarini Pears. These children are as young as seven years old and to face an audience of 700 for them must have been a mammoth task.
The senior girls then performed the Shringara Velan that extols the beauty of Lord Muruga. The dancers were, Siddhi Ayyar, Sucheta Raj, Ragini Vijayakumar, Shruti Iyengar, Kalyani Nagarajan Neelan Hari, Karishma Hari as well as Aruni Anand. The audience was amazed at the beauty of the dance, and were at a loss for words.
The highlight of the programme was however, the Varnam in Poorvikalyani Ragam and in Adi Talam. The senior girls showed their meticulous footwork and precise coordination both in Abinaya (facial expression) as well as in Adavu (foot work)thus prooving once again the hard work and sincerety that has gone towards the making of this programme.
After the interval the Thillana, the Kavadi Chindu and the Ball dance as well as the Andi Maygudhadi a padam performed by Mrs. Sunder was all worth watching once again as spoken by the audiences after the event.
The climax was the six temples depicted in the dance that was choreographed by Mrs Sunder and in which all dancers took part and was beautiful and enthralling for some felt that they had visited all those temples that evening and brought tears to their eyes when they beheld the beauty and the colours along with the music and the stage decorations that enhanced the item.
On the whole the evening was a grand success and some said that the Academy has set up a bench mark for other schools to follow suit in future. Priya Vijay as the evening's MC had done a remarkable job and has a bright future ahead of her in this field.
