Some powerful, pithy and
passionate verses of Kshetrayya, the 17th century Telugu poet find articulation through a full-blown demonstration by ‘Padmabhushan’
Smt. Kalanidhi Narayanan, the legendary abhinaya exponent. With ease and elegance, ‘maami’- as she is affectionately called- unrolls layers and layers of the multiple dimensions of shrungara rasa in a unique language called ‘abhinaya’ using her eyes, head, neck and also the hands that fold and unfold in various styles and shapes. Her furrowed face explodes into a kaleidoscope of emotions as she depicts the desires and dilemmas of lovelorn heroines.
It is a scintillating synergy involving verses animated by music and articulated by an ageless dance form.
