Odissi | Varsha Pallavi | Best of Indian Classical Dance

[@raghuveersahoo1336]

Most of people like bharatnatyam..... Because it is related to Lord Shiva's tandav.... Means his angerness.... And destruction.... But on the the other hand Odissi is more related to Lord krishna.... Or jagannath..... His calmness.. And love to the human kind.... I am proud to be an odia....

[@karthikrajeev4536]

Mohiniattam too😅

[@ramanandkowtakowta1431]

Very well explained - Krutagnyatalu - Gratitude in Telugu❤

[@sarangarajanranganathan1315]

It is the same natya sastra common to all. That is thandav and this is lasya. I was wondering that odisi is the best lasya and bharathnatyam is Thandav... But when there is a program of Smt. Alarmelvalli and Smt. Madhavi Mudgal... I then realised lasya or the rasam is purely on the expertise of the individual. Here is the link. Hope you enjoy it. (Look at the first 2) kzbin.info?search_query=alarmelvalli+odissi

[@infinite5795]

​@@karthikrajeev4536Mohiniattam is more related to Mohini avatar of Sri Vishnu, while Odissi is more related to Krishna avatar or Jagannath.

Bharatanatyam also has a lasya parr

To capture the rains, the monsoon rivers, setting spring suns, peacocks in flower fields underneath mango trees within a dance? Truly classical, Odissi is an art form like no other.

Anika Acharya true that ! you voiced my words.

[@sahasransusbarik]

Odissi dance form and music is the most ancient and graceful among all Indian classical dance and music but very underrated. It's not being promoted well by Indian mainstream media unlike Bharata Natyam , Kathaka, Carnatak music etc.

[@kakalidas7060]

[@sujatadasgupta7883]

@@kakalidas7060 Yes all Indian classical dances are graceful but none can match Odissi which is the most beautiful and graceful of all.

[@sandeshguria4496]

Then you don't have enough knowledge about all Indian classical dances ..... Let me tell me you I am Christian not Hindu but I guess I have better knowledge than you about Indian classical dances.... BharatNatyam is different because it shows aggression nature of Shiva which is inspired by tandava how can you insult that by saying that odisi is more good than BharatNatyam , and if you had good knowledge you should have noticed that sattriya is also gracefull , even kuchipudi is and not to forget Mohiniattam which literally means mesmerizing dance it's obvious that it is delicate beautiful and grace full ....conclusion is you're just obsessed with odisi because you're from odisha that obsession made you blindfolded and hence you're unable to see the fact

[@sahasransusbarik]

@@sandeshguria4496 , aabe lowdu , first read my comment then reply over it. I said Odissi dance form is ancient and graceful which is right, where did I comment that its only good and others are bad?

All dance form of India is beautiful in their own form but according to many scholars Odissi looks graceful and its ancient which is still existed from 400 BC.

Thank you everyone for liking the Dance and it's Music. As I can see lot of viewers eagerly wanting to know about the music composer, I would like to mention that the original music from the beginning till the Pallavi(Tarana/Thillana) is composed by Sri Vijay Tambe ji who has also played flute in this composition..The Pallavi and its music is composed by Sri Jateen Kumar Sahu...and soulfully sung by Sri Manoj Desai ji. The rhythm composition and Mardal played by Sri G. Ramprasad(myself). The entire orchestration is done by Sri Vijay Tambe ji. Your appreciation as well as constructive criticism regarding music is always welcome. Enjoy the Art and love the Artists 🙏❤️

After a long time finally got a new version of pallavi with an utterance of samskrutam slokas given a new turn to pallavi, though it is more near about to megha pallavi , I feel that choreography could be little more enhanced by our flawless odissi artists . Still it is astetic and mind blown performance . Hope to see again new varities on odissi .

I think Megha means CLOUD and Varsha means RAIN

[@jyothirmayi7895]

Such an elegant performance to an equally vibrant music composition! Fills heart with happiness. I am trained in Bharatanatyam and Kuchipudi, and I am pleasantly surprised to note that Odissi and Kuchipudi share a lot of similarities (in terms of footwork and execution of certain steps) and differences too. Can anybody please share the English translation of the actual Pallavi? Thanks in advance!

This is so so beautiful. Wonderfully executed piece. Odissi is the oldest classical dance form with its own Odissi music, instruments, rhythm n pace. Please explore more into it....it just is amazing. I doubt if Odissi's abhinaya could be used in Indian Raga's format but its the most interesting part of Odissi....it will pull u into it. P.S. Thanks for paying heed to the many suggestions in the previous Odissi video n putting them into use. U can see the difference right!! As i said Odissi looks n feels best with its own accompanying nuances be it music, instruments, the attire, jewellery it all. Kudos n love to the performers n arranger of the whole presentation.
