10. Bharatanatyam

11. Bharatanatyam, also spelt Bharathanatyam, is a
classical dance form of South India, said to
be originated in Thanjavoor of Tamil Nadu. It was
known as "Daasiyattam" since performed by
Devadasies in temples of Tamil Nadu long ago. The
name 'Bharatanatyam' is derived from three basic
concepts of Bhava, Raga and Thaala. The modern
Bharatanatyam was systematically regularized by well
known 'Thanjavoor Brothers', Ponnayya, Chinnayya,
Sivanandam and Vativelu.

22. kathakali

23. The themes of the Kathakali are religious in
nature. They typically deal with the Mahabarat,
theRamayana and the ancient scriptures known as
the Puranas. This is performed in a text which is
generally Sanskritised Malayalam.
A Kathakali performance is a major social event. They
generally start at dusk and go through out the
night. Kathakali is usually performed only by
men. Female characters are portrayed by men dressed
in women's costume. However, in recent years,
women have started to become Kathakali dancers.

30. Bharatanatyam
Mysore style

31. Classical dance, particularly Bharatanatyam, has been practiced
professionally as well as academically from ancient times in
Karnataka, as is evident from Kannada literature, inscriptions,
paintings. All the evidences point to there being a rich tradition
of dance in Karnataka through the centuries to the present day.
The Chalukyan sculptures at Badami and Aihole proclaim that
the sculptors of Karnataka had a good knowledge of the
Natyashastra in the 5th century itself. Classical dancing was
studied as a regular course in the great universities of Talakadu,
Talagunda, and Bulligavi between the 4th to 13th centuries.
Karnataka's royalty not only patronized the art form, but also
themselves danced, like the great danseuse, Queen Shantala, of
the Hoysala Empire.
