04 Shabdam: Sarasijakshulu

While all the previous pieces dealt with pure dance, in this piece abhinaya-miming of stories through facial expressions and gestures-is introduced. This Shabdam portrays a young Krishna whose pranks includes hiding the clothes of the Gopis and stealing butter from homes. The song Sarasi Jakshulu is composed by Vadivelu, one of the famous Thanjai Naalvar (Thanjavur Quartet).
