Talk by Malavika Sarukkai

Celebrate International Dance Day with a deeper understanding of the integral role of aharya in classical Indian dance. Bharatanatyam exponent Malavika Sarukkai is renowned for her mastery of aharya abhinaya, where costume, ornamentation and visual elements become integral to storytelling. With a keen eye for aesthetics, she meticulously designs her stage presence, ensuring that colours, textures, adornments and props harmonise with the emotions and themes of her performances. Through her choreographic vision, she not only displays technical brilliance and originality but also transforms the stage into a living canvas, where every detail enhances the depth and beauty of the dance.
