......not to discredit any of the great dancers India has produced. I have never heard any jargon from her about Hindu this, Muslim that. This art is universal, it's about oneness with the divine whether He is Shiv or Allah. Please stop making negative remarks, let art have no religion, caste or creed.

As a student of Nahid ji, I will tell you that her tremendous journey of 40 years in dance has been one where she has studied and perfected and incorporated the ideals Islamic geometry, architecture and space in her dance. Her teacher Baba Maharaj was taught by Acchan Maharaj who if I am correct was Birju Maharaj's uncle.

The Islamic influence has been instrumental in taking it to an esteemed level of a classical art form. Hazrat Amir Khusro, the Mughals and Waid Ali Shah have made immense contributions and Kathak today would not be what it is without them.

Khayal gaiyaki and Kathak resonate the most perhaps when one thinks about how beautifully both Hindu and Islamic cultures have blend with one another.

There is so much talk over here regarding the roots of Kathak. Succinctly put, it's the perfect amalgamation of Hindu and Islamic culture. Different gharana's have given patronage to different styles and techniques. So to all you haters out there, on both sides, Kathak traces its roots to Hindus, the gypsies of Rajasthan and was essentially a folk art of story telling.

..in a TRUE way which means that they could learn to love their own identity but at the same time acknowledge each other and praise each others success. According to my experience, only a person who´s unsure of himself tries to put down everybody else.
India is an amazingly interesting country and Pakistan is great and equally as spellbinding. I hope Allah swt frees both countries of their bad leaders/corruption and makes them the cradles of hospitality and true friendship, ameen!
