My goodness no wonder people are crazy about urdu. This lady's conversation in urdu is sweeter than honey and smoother than a flowing water ( i know its a odd way to describe it but this is how i felt it). Its a great joy seeing two legends of kathak.

Amazing. tripmonk0 thank u so much for posting this. Everything that he says is so true. And he shows such humility (4:07-4:12) That is what makes him so special and so great... A real maestro.

Do you know Hindi/Urdu? Did you hear what Maharaji says after she asks him about dancers using their guru's name to get forward?? Nick

[@isfahani]

i'm not sure as to what exactly you're referring to, but i did find the lady's style rather sassy nevertheless , thanks very much for sharing this rare piece of video and open to public views :)

[@placidbil]

@Rohit84up She certainly does speak very properly and puts Urdu speakers of today to shame, where they have borrowed words from english and bollywood movies.....no offence to either influences but languages lose their purity when mixed excessively with others....Nice of you to appreciate it...
