bharatanatyam dancers are all about many different things. sometimes, we are trying to get a story across to the audience - could be mythological, or personal. bharatanatyam is also composed of rigorous footwork, which are made to match the rhythms of the mridangam and tabla players/musicians. mainly bharatanatyam is a very old dance form done by both genders to convey feeling, storytelling, and rhythm.
Bharatanatyam, in its highest moment, is the embodiment of music in a visual form", said Balasaraswathi. The sastra's stipulated that a dedicated dancer must be equally dedicated to music. In her demonstrations of Bharata natyam abroad, Balasaraswathi emphasised the connection between dance movement and raga (tune) expression in abhinaya (mime), with the subtle expressions of gamakas (voice modulations), intonations of sruti, and the development of improvisation in niraval"
Most of the contemporary choreographers and dancers may use some of the formal Bharatanatyam technique or its elements to stage group performances presenting various themes such as nationalism, unity of religions, the sanctity of the environment, the animal rights activism, the greatness of a king or a political party, or even the delightfulness of Coca-Cola. In Vande Mataram, a dance festival organised under the auspices of Natyarangam, a project of Narada Gana Sabha in 1997 in Chennai, there was a host of topics: the caste and reservation systems, threat of nuclear weapons, evils of the current education system, bribery, religious fanaticism,AIDS, the population explosion, corruption in politics, secularism, the Dandi March, literacy, agriculture,the greed for riches, the Chinese aggression, mechanisation, industrialisation. Most recently, some dancers of Nrityanjali Academy (Andhra pradesh) managed to draw their divine inspiration even from Condom Songs. The true Bharatanatyam is not a vulgar form of entertainment but a sacred ritual that is supposed to bring the rasanubhava (catharsis, or spiritual upliftment) to the rasika (audience) and the dancer.
