Rukmini Vijayakumar Instagram – Last night I finally shared my choreography on the Ramayana at the Gudiya Sambhrama festival @heritageparampara
These clips are from the Varnam that is from the perspective of Bharata, where he first asks Rama not to leave and is thereafter waiting for Rama to return after his 14 years of exile.
It was composed by Dr Rajkumar Bharati, and I performed last night with @raghuram_rajagopalan @konnakkolsomashekarjois @shyam_rhythmgam and Mahesha Swamy.
They all brought my ideas and concept to life with their artistry and I feel so lucky to have such amazing artists work with me, and trust me on an idea.
I’m so grateful that I have dance in my life. That I get to lose myself in the imaginary world, amidst the gods and goddesses, traverse emotions and return to my world after experiencing a catharsis of sorts.
A new production is always something that one is unsure of… and this has taken a while for me to put together. So thankful to everyone who has helped me. @ramyakadambi for coordinating everything!
@saishravanam for recording a track for me to rehearse with.
My mom, for having me at her festival. And all the members of the audience who shared last evening with me.
And most of all, all my gurus, @nrithyodayachennai and my coach @somyarout2806
I will share a few more clips with you all soon.
♥️♥️♥️
