Oh India, never let your very rich culture die out. It's a living testament to every culture in the world in danger of disappearing due to modernization and globalization.

Can we take a moment to appreciate the person who sang the song? His lung capacity must be out of this world.

Not Indian, not even Hindu, but WOW. I swear traditional Indian dances are so mesmerizing!!

Srilankan here.. this is mesmerizing. Bharatha Natyam is one of the most beautiful art in the world I think.

I am an Indian and i am 15 years old i have been learning classical dance from 3 years old i studied mainly bharatnatyam , mohiniyaattam and kuchipudi and i am happy to be know that there are people who love indian culture.proud to be an indian .

I'm from America, African American, and I have always admired Indian culture 😍 this is truly beautiful

Indian culture never ceases to amaze me. it really is amazing! India is one of the most culturally rich countries. I'm fascinated. Greetings and hugs from Venezuela 🇮🇳♥️✨🇻🇪

I am north Indian. Some of my sisters learned Bharatanatyam. It takes years to understand and learn. All the dance move have special meaning and must synchronized with the vocal. Kudos to these ladies for their such perfection in the Bharatanatyam.

such a beautiful culture greetings from Romania 🇷🇴

impressed from Japan🇯🇵❤️

I'm from Spain and I love Indian Music.

A Trini here🇹🇹 and I’ve always loved Indian dancing and music as it’s been a part of my culture since childhood. These ladies are extremely TALENTED AND BEAUTIFUL 💖

Indians let's stick to our culture. It's so beautiful.

Indian culture is one of the oldest in the world. Must be protected.

I am an African I like Indian religion and dance

Im from meghalaya n i love bharatnatyam dance since kid i find it so beautiful i also want to learn too😭

I'm from Turkey, i love the Indian culture, it's so rich and beautiful. This dance is pure art, i'm watching it multiple times. I hope Indian culture never dies out.

Hey, Indonesian here. I just wanna say that was soooo cool. Indian culture is so beautiful. I really hope I can watch it live

Perhaps most of those outside India only noticed their body movements. Watch again and again in full screen for emotions, expressions, sensuality all expressed through their face, eyes, grace and style. Contains everything that defines human and their senses. This truly makes India so unique and uncomparable. Its an evolved art of over thousands of years. This is one of the many dance forms we have in this marvellous country of amazing diversities in dance, language, cultures, traditions, religions, creation and art.

I'm Cambodia🇰🇭 love Bharathanatiyam INDEA ❤️🇮🇳

Am a northeast a beginner in Bharatnatyam ....seeing this master piece my heart is beating really fast ....so thrilling

As an Indian Hindu a little of this I can understand and express for you. It's devoted to lord Shiva, one of Hindus most worshipped form of Divinity. All the poses you see are representing his different aspects. For eg. upto 0.05 you see diffrent poses of meditation and Gyan(knowledge) at 0.09 you see one of the most famous depiction of Natraj( The Lord of Cosmic Dance), the girl at the sitting represents Bull meaning the raw power of Universe, the Girl in middle with her one leg in above in air represents Shiva Himself dancing ie creating and destroying the Cosmos.From 0.13 to 0.19 Snakes all around Shiva meaning peaceful existence with all the chaos in life. From 0.19 to 0.25 the story of river Ganga being tied in Shiva's hair is depicted the shaking hands here depict loose hair into which the river Ganga was entangaled( btw 0.23 to 0.25 the girl in the end is depicting the act of tieing a knot with her raised hands). From 0.51 to 0.56 the same river is let loose(coming down from His hair) for the good of mankind is enacted. From 1.06 to 1.10 the girl shows a tiger (1.06) then the act of tieing around waist ie the skin of a tiger around Shiva's waist meaning killing and controlling negative or wild emotions. There are many more depictions like Shiva dancing with his Damru or the moon of second day after moonless night depicting the consciousness arising in darkness like the moon etc. Hindu philosophy is very deep even for me who is born in a traditional Hindu family, so I may still be wrong in some descriptions. Thanks

Чудесный танец! Грация, изящество, чувство ритма, совершенство движений. Индийскую культуру, искусство, философию всегда принимали и любили в России.

im only 11 years old, an indian, and yet i never realised how much indian dances can mean so much, i am literally going for classes, this is so beautiful i appreciate this so much and how the beauty of dance can resemble so much!

How beautiful! A Brazilian here.

As a martial artist, this gives me chills to watch. This is beautiful!

I am Moroccan Hindu proud and I love the God of Durga

How could anyone NOT love the grace, power, precision and self-control of such magnificent dance. STUNNING!

When I hear a sitar, I always think of India. I adore their beautiful costumes.

Used to be a professional dancer in the USA in primarily Ballet and Modern, this is stunning. The precision is incredible. Love from the US to India!

I've traveled the world while in the Army, seen a lot of different cultural dances, yet India, with all of its beauty and culture ranks up there as one place I am proud to have witnessed. We are becoming too modernized in so many ways but this here keeps your culture and history alive and well. Don't change a thing. Beauty is to be admired and appreciated no matter where it is seen.

Indian culture is literally one of the most beautiful cultures in the entire globe❤

Omg these comments are so sweet 😭 The fact that y'all aren't even from India but still praise our culture like this gives me faith in humanity...thank you guys so much 😭😭

I am learning to bharatanatyam dance I'm from thailand. 😀😀

I'm from bali Indonesia, this is our roots 🙏

When I was studying king fu, I thought I was in great shape. Then I met a classical Indian dancer and tried her workout routine. I don't think my muscles were ever so sore in my life.

Bharatanatyam is a classical dance of Indian state Tamil Nadu Bharat means India and natyam means dance Lots of love to Tamil Nadu from haryana Jai Hind Proud to be India 🇮🇳

I watched this at least a hundred times! One day i'll learn Bharatanatyam. Much love from Brazil

India is sophisticated civilization from hinduism to buddhism, Yoga, ancient medicine, surgeries, amazing classical dances, respect for nature. It inspired so many cultures in Asia without conversion or killing.

Love India from Philippines 🇵🇭

It was so graceful..❤ being an Indian it brings tears to my eyes when I see such a elegant performance... I appreciate all the hard work of the dancers!! ✨❤

The Britishers wrote in their books that they were here to civilize us. Civilize a more than 5000 years old civilization!!

Love India from Brazil ❤❤🇧🇷

Indian culture is so beautiful 😭 from the food, to the singing, it’s just amazing!

Here is how many people's are really liked our Indian ( Hindu ) culture.. I am really lucky to be indian and Hindu ❤️✨🥳

This traditional dance is one of the most amazing I've ever seen. It necessitates the highest level of technique and skill.

Such a beautiful dance. Very exotic and spiritual.Love from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿🇮🇳

I am a Thai female student. I have loved Indian culture since childhood. I love India, love culture and love civilization of India as well. The history teacher once told me that Indian people are pretty. Grow up. If I have a chance, I will travel to India. 🇹🇭❤️🇮🇳

It is Indian. It is hindustan. Thanking to You tube.

Девчонки,мне вам большой респект и уважение! 🙏🙏🙏Смотрю и завидую!я бы тоже так хотела,но нет возможности!

Daughters of Shiva ! Love, wisdom & prosperity

All the Love and Respect from Brasil 🇧🇷❤️🙏👏👏👏👏 I'm learning BharataNatyam here, and I Love You!!!!!!

Великолепно!

Wow you can just see how breathless these girls get, yet they still smile beautifully. Truly, you can see how much they love to dance.

This form of art, the Indian dancing takes dancing to another level. When I see it, I try to figure what gives it that extra beauty. I discovered that they are expressing the song as it's being sung. It's just an amazing form of dance.

What I mostly love about India is the way they treat traditional arts. To them it's like a religion, a true part of their lives and they are so proud of it. They promote arts with a passion and people with talents in art truly get elevated to stardom. Never change that about you India. Love from sri lanka ❤

¡Impresionante ver tanta destreza, talento y hermosura! Una de las culturas mas antiguas del mundo. Gracias por conectarnos con el pasado... Hermosas Princesas😘👸👸👸

I'm fascinated. Because I'm Serbian, I'm feeling a real proximity to indian culture. Many serbian words are identical to the sanscript. There is already many sanscript-serbian dictionnaries.

I'm from Venezuela. i LOVE this culture, india is so pretty 😍 i want go to meet this beautiful contry.

It is art. It is discipline. It is effort. It is time investing. It was divine art...

From Sri Lanka and I am currently learning bharata, I hope to be good them one day . I literally have watched this over 20 times

Never forget: This is just ONE of India's many dance forms that were banned in temples during the British era. Yet they have still been preserved to this day.

Indian culture is just soo beautiful :) im gonna go to India next time! 💖💖 from 🇵🇭🇵🇭

greetings from bulgaria🇮🇳🇧🇬

S/o to the girlies🔥💐. Thoroughly enjoyed this • 🇿🇦

I am practicing yoga and now it more interesting 😊

Потрясающий танец, завораживает с первых минут 😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👏👏👏👏

No exposing clothes, no obscenity, no autotune, JUST SHEER TALENT AND YEARS OF DISCIPLINE. Bharat Mata ki Jai!

In Hebrew we call India, Kedem, land of the ancients! And here and now, so modern also!

Much Love to India from the Southern State of Georgia in the U.S.A . I Love India, the people and culture💖👏👏

I am so happy to see the positive comments barathanatiyam is originated from tamil nadu where it was called sathiratam later called as dashiyattam and now it is barathanatiyam. In tamilnadu it is performed before natarajar .one avathar of God shiva.

From time to time I come back here and watch this dance and ALWAYS get amazed.

This is amazing. Im from southern Thailand and our dance came from this. I love India

I have no idea what this means, being a westerner, but it still has a big emotional impact on me. It excites the senses, both visually and some hearing wise, as the musicians and singers are also very good, like the dancers. It is a completely different musical and cultural idiom from our own culture, like all their musical scales etc are an entirely different system from ours, but we can still understand it on a basic universal human emotional level and be affected emotional male by the music and dancing, despite not being able to understand it. I find that amazing about music and cultural expression. But it needs to be a people's pure, authentic, real culture, not some ugly multiculturally contaminated mess, like we are now seeing in Australia, which actually breaks down and completely destroys these various very beautiful national cultures and creative expression about their daily lives, religions, history, joys, sadness, everything... And replaces it with fake culture, all trying to imitate western cultural expression, which is fine, but that is our own authentic cultural expression only. OK for others to enjoy but looks and is grossly ugly and fake when others try to imitate is and the same applies in reverse. Ever had to suffer an evening of "wog rock"? I did. At an ethnic European wedding where they played this "wog rock" style European/Aussie style "fusion"crap. It was unbearable. I wanted to see the bride and groom dance but when the band struck up with this garbage and they striped to Tango and Mambo and Cha Cha etc or the oldies tried to waltz, it was just gross beyond all belief and I left at the first opportunity. And felt bad because this was a very exclusive expensive wedding party they had gone to a lot of trouble to ensure guests had a good time. But, if as migrants in Melbourne, they had played a mixture of traditional music from the old homeland and done that we'll and then a selection of real, genuine Aussie type rock music, in English, not the mother tongue, to symbolise being migrants straddling across two cultures, like the second generation pair getting married to partners from their own cultural background, it would have gone well. A few oldies would have moaned about "loud primitive Aussie rock music, like wild tribes" and the younger ones would have complained about boring tra la la folkloric type wedding party music, but everybody could have enjoyed some of the music, at least. Fusion style pop music is just so gross and ridiculous eg pale very blonde tattoed whites trying to sing blues or rap like black people can do Authentically and real, because the genuine ones will have experienced what they perform. It doesn't mean the white performers never experienced pain and suffering. Many did. But, if they don't want to appear fake , unbelievable, they need to find their own way to express it, as white people. We can still listen to and enjoy all the other culture. But we don't have to steal their culture or contaminate it or completely destroys it with "multicultural fusion" culture. Just leave it alone and enjoy it and express yourself in your own cultural idiom. Ever watched tall ,skinny, straight ,pure white tattoed and pierced very pale western blondes trying to belly dance? That's pretty gross, too. I once saw such a western blonde try it at a club that said in their ad that there was going to be an Arabian dancer but all we got was some very pretty blonde in a spangly costume who failed to impress with her moves, but men ogled her sexually and she seemed to enjoy that. Then a real Middle Eastern woman, middle aged, a little plump, with a slightly protruding belly appeared with her man and children, stripped down to her pretty basic costume consisting of a few veils, few spangles and began dancing Ng and completely brought the house down with her moves when she bent over backwards to touch the ground behind her head with her hands flat on the ground. She then just got up, hugged her kids, sat on her admiring husband's knees and everybody ignored the pretty western blonde, who decided she'd had enough of this scene and left. But I wanted to see the real Middle Eastern dancer do another dance because it was impressive. The fact that she was so Ng all these moves that look very sexual to Westerners, but it was done in a family, tribal social scenario where none of them saw it as being even vaguely photographic type sexual dancing, just spirited fun dancing. The failed blonde belly dancer had failed because, apart from wrong body type and colouring and no real dancing skills, she had sought to impose our own western culture or sexualised belly dancing on their culture. And the result was boring.

So mezmerizing...stunning beauty of indian culture... Love and respect from a korean guy

amazing dexterity and artistic expression ❤
