skanda -Bharathanatyam- Devi Parvathi gives Vel to murugar

This snippet is from Nruthyalya's 10th anniversary celebration : Skanda.
Skanda is a thematic presentation of all 6 abodes (aaru padai veedu) of Muruga in Bharatanatyam.
The story of Devi Parvathy giving the Vel to Murugar (also known as Murugan, Kartikeya, or Skanda) is a significant episode in Hindu mythology, particularly in the Tamil tradition. The Vel is a divine spear, and its granting to Murugar is associated with his role as a warrior god and his battle against the demon Surapadman.
