| Synopsis : | Kasthoori and Thachayani Ramanaidu aka the Malaysia Kuchipudi Sisters, are TFA Bharatanatyam Nrityanjali graduates, who trained under the great master Vempati Chinna Satyam for four years. Now teachers at the Temple of Fine Arts, the last three years have seen them sharing their love for this unique and alluring classical style of Andhra Pradesh with both young and mature students. In Bhamane Satyabhamane, they will present some of the most famous pieces in the Kuchipudi repertoire, namely "Bhama Kalapam", "Dasavatharam", and "Neelamegham". Kasthoori will essay the famous piece on Satyabhama, the beautiful and haughty consort of Krishna, which will also be followed by an abhinaya piece entitled "Lekha" depicting her mood as she writes Krishna a letter. Both sisters will be seen in the arresting "Dasavatharam" which describes Krishna in his ten incarnations. The finale "Neelamegham" describes the enchanting of Krishna and is followed by the unique sequence of dancing on brass plate, here performed by Thachayani. They will also be presenting some of their students in an item dedicated to Ganesha as well as a folk dance in the Kuchipudi tradition. |
