Oh I saw you in SITARAMAM, what a grace you carried, just beautiful. The entire movie is a beautiful poetry. And was so pleasantly surprised to see you on big screen. Congratulations Rukmini ji.

[@suryakumari5658]

Same here 😀

[@chandanachandran1261]

She had done a small part In mani ratnam,'s Katru veliyidai too.

[@Happymoments2008]

She acted in many movies …. Not only these two…… especially tamil ……. I saw them ….. she is wonderful ……..

[@Kathakathan11]

@@Happymoments2008 I haven’t watched those movies, especially being Marathi, my exposure to South Indian movies is less. Thanks to recent Hindi dub screens, it’s easier to watch.

[@malinichandra6953]

Yes was so special the effect you brought to the movie - was pleasantly surprised to see u

It Looks Like Someone Has Smuggled You From The Heavens ❤

[@paragbhattacharya943]

Karpur gauram Karunavataram Sansarasaram Bhujagendra-haram Sada vasantam hridayaravide Bhavam bhavami sahitam namami The lord who has the splendor of camphor(because of all the holy ash he smears on his body- thus appearing white like a pure camphor) The lord who is compassion personified The lord who is the summary of everything in the universe The lord who wears a serpent around his neck like a garland May He, along with his wife Parvati, reside in the lotus of my heart ❤️ ,together, always

[@crescentsi]

Love the contrast between the contemporary, graffiti-laden building and the intricate and sophisticated, ancient dance. A very inspiring experience, evocative of regeneration, hope and an essential interconnectedness of human experience. Love it, Rukmini!

[@tracya.bellian1159]

contrast is there because of such an unsuitable backdrop, totally sickening!

[@rainwinters5239]

I do not know how youtube algorithm works nor do I pretend to, but somehow I ended up here. Your beauty and grace in movement is... hypnotising.

[@nallanmohan]

She always performs so elegantly. Especially this one eyes pleasing one. Siva was physically present on her. Congrats madam. You are next generation to Smt. Padma subramaniam

[@SuperTopnotch22]

100% accurate

[@ashokhs2794]

See her in “Bhajarangi“ movie song. You will be surprised more..

[@appypandey780]

She finds Shiva and herself moves with the grace of Goddess Parvati... What a treat to eyes is her presence is and what a treat to soul is to witness her spirit dance... The only complaint I have is with the sloppy camera movements that, at times, obstructed viewers from having full view of her grace.

[@kumarjantali5261]

ನೀವು ನೃತ್ಯ ಮಾಡುವದನ್ನು ನೋಡುವುದೇ ಕಣ್ಣಿಗೆ ಒಂದು ಹಬ್ಬ...! It is a great pleasing festival to our eyes while you are dancing so piously, dedicated to the great Art of Dance. What an elegant and gaity and gracious movement conducive to the lyric...! Great accompanying singers, videographers, editors and setting Art Director, ahh everything is adorable and appreciable...! Keep it up Madem...! We really appreciate your dedicated efforts in creating this video...! All the BEST Madem in your future efforts too...! Kurajan.

[@deadanna]

This brought me to tears. Thank you…

[@obaidnajm]

I bow to the Goddess. What a beautiful performance. It’s too powerful. Infinite love and gratitude. Blessings to all ❤🌈💕🌻🙏🌺🌹

[@chandranautiyal4974]

You truly are nari shakti! So powerful and beautiful through your art. Thank you for being such an inspiration to women. God bless you and your art/talent.😍

[@pankajshah6364]

I am very much proud of such an organisation, who developed and contributed to the culture of pure religious life - bhakti from the soul.🙏

[@user-ns9hy5tv2q]

БОЖЕСТВЕННАЯ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@sonjawolfmoon4150]

you dance with so much love and sincerity🙏🏻 this is the only dance that makes me feel even though I don't understand its language, that tells beautiful stories, blessings 🙏🏻

[@SR-rh7bd]

Extraordinary . Could feel the presence of shiva in the whole performance 🙏🏽

[@1498america]

The apparent contrast. 'The Lord of the Great Dance', He-She, Shiva Natarāja, even in the most chaotic and hostile environments - alien and distant to harmony and order (Rta) - even there, in the chaos produced by the misuse given to freedom (free will), even there, GOD - the Absolute Being - shines forth and experiences His own glory as the lotus that does not get dirty in the swamp. Very beautiful dance in the midst of the chaos produced by the human being. The Light shines in the midst of Maia. It can only be contemplated by the grace of pure vision. Thank you Rukmini Vijayakumar. _/\ _

Maravilhosa Simplesmente Espetacular Magnífica incrível...

[@fernandapistillo495]

Grazie di aver condiviso una tale meraviglia 🤩.... thanks a lot for sharing such a marvellous dance 😍

[@atozevents4536]

Such a beautiful, marvelous, speechless performance. It reminded me my mucic teacher in school days defining music as... Music is a combination of singing, playing an instrument and dance to devoted person immersion into the emotions. Lovely 💐🌹

[@debosmitasaha]

Each of your expressions and choreography feel like a fervent and beautiful prayer to the Lord and I feel like His grace becomes expressed through your dance. I'm in awe. Though I know nothing about dancing, somewhere I feel my soul dancing beside you.

[@archiem654]

Absolutely marvellous!

Mesmerising wooow congratulations sisters love your dance and expressions 🙏💕🤗♥️

[@jagathmithya719]

Only Lord Siva could defeat your breathtakingly superb performance!

[@dannuno9769]

Exquisite performance ❤👏🏼😍

[@Leo-lj6vs]

Hello Rukmini. I am watching these dance moves and can see a similarity with martial arts movement. In many cultures fighting techniques are hidden in dance. Eastern martial arts came from India and I am wondering if you have ever explored these dance moves in the light of fighting arts.

[@0arjun077]

According to history/legend Bodidharma came from India especially where this classical dance tradition is originated (state : Tamil Nadu, India). He went to Shaolin and did his contribution their.
