CHOLKETU Mohiniattam Indian dance group Mayuri

Presenting you South Indian classical dance style Mohiniattam. This style was born in the very south of India, at Kerala state. Mohiniattam means "Mohini's dance". The legend says that when Gods and their brothers -- the danavs -- were churning the ocean to obtain Amrita, the drink of immortality, and were not able to decide who of them will get it, Lord Vishnu embodied in a very beautiful woman Mohini. Having charmed Danavs, Mohini took Amrita from them and gave it to devas (Gods).

Smooth, soft, very feminine motions characterize this dance, but the great woman's power is hidden in these soft movements.
