Brindavani Thillana: Bharatanatyam vs. Kuchipudi, performed to Dr. M. Balamuralikrishna’s composition that is popular among musicians as well as classical dancers. Here the dancers perform Brindavani Thillana highlighting the similarities and differences between two prominent Indian classical dance genres, Bharatanatyam and Kuchipudi. Nuances of the Nritta and Abinaya in the two dance forms are brought out by the dancers Shyama Iyer (Bharatanatyam) and Sahiti Rachakonda (Kuchipudi) through the depiction of the playful encounters of Krishna and Radha.
The music for this piece is from the IndianRaga Fellowship Production Brindavan Thillana by Sarvesh Karthick, Madhu Iyer, Niveditha Arun, Aditya Vinod, Saigovind Vijayaraghavan and Sri Poornima Krishna Emani. Watch the Music video at • Brindavani Thillana | ...

Technical Differences i could spot..: Kuchipudi dancer(red & White) singing the lyrics.... while Bharatanatyam dancer does not sing along. Kuchipudi seemed more gentle than Bhartanatyam. One Bharat, countless forms. Beautiful!!

The Kuchipudi aesthetic can be portrayed in various ways. The artform is not limited to one style of garment or hair. The jada in front can be done for stylistic or character portrayal purposes, however it is not required of all dancers to wear jada in front. 🙏🏼

Can i ask what is the official name to these dances and music. As a child, on sat nights very late bollywood dancing and then this music came on. I was 8, i would have this playing on sunday morning on the am radio, trying to copy the dancing to this. I felt so free dancing to this. I still very much feel a connection to this that i cannot explain. Thanks for sharing this beauty. Thanks to the dancers. The percussion players ect. Very beautiful

@pothavaramtalkies Жыл бұрын

Dance forms are different but dance is divine. I think the main difference between Kuchipudi & Bharatha natyam is postures and expressions. In kuchipudi postures are solid and expressions are natural. In bharatha natyam postures are sculpture style and expressions are dramatic.. both performers are excellent.

@vigneshnehru9822 6 ай бұрын

Also costumes and hairstyle and the fact that Kuchipudi dancers lip sync to the lyrics also known as Vaachika abhinayan. Which is not a feature of bharatnatyam

There is hardly any difference in the styles. They should not try to differentiate. Kuchipidi is Basically male dance form even female dancing done by males. and more inclined towards drama-dance style.. The differences exhibited are minor adapted to lower balance point of female body. It would benefit more to both styles. As Bharthanatyam is an older form with continuity to Chola and Pallava period and the Bhagavatha Mela tradition led by kuchipidi shared by by both. it should be promoted as one incorporating both systems without trying minor differences and deemphasizing the plate dance and pot dance. Would aid both forms as a classical dance of vast repertoire and varied approach.

I do not really want to engage in these types of comments, but being a Bharatanatyam and Kuchipudi dancer, both dancers did wonderful, and excel at their different forms. I'm not sure if you are familiar with either dances and if one wants to show bias towards a certain form of dance, I suggest learning about both types of dances first. Without basic understanding towards a dance, it is unfair to judge it.
