  • @eemetahuo Really? That is an amazing new piece of info. Will look it up, thanks for pointing!

  • @sheru7meraa7naam some stories like of mahabharata n krishna is told by kathak! now it depends what u classify as related with hinduism, hinduism touches almost every aspect of indian culture, like drama, dance, litreature, arts, philosophy, names etc!!

  • this is a most beautiful dance portrayal of Kalavati Tarana. Thumbs up to the dancer.

    Can anyone give the following information on this music please. Music title; music artist; distributor; copyright year; publishser and manufacturer.

  • @CriterionCoIIection ok thanks for the info... the link below said it was Taxila, i don't really know much about this topic so i assumed otherwise:

  • @sheru7mera7naam007 actually kathak originated in uttar pradesh...

  • ok kool i didn 't know that, thanks for the info

  • @sheru7mera7naam007

    The word kathak comes from the sanskrit word katha which means story / narrative. Originally this dance was performed with the raas leela thus creating a dance narrative of the love story of Radha and Krishna. It was a folk dance form which evolved into classical dance.

  • i recently read up on this topic, found out that kathak actually originated in Taxila, ancient india... which is now in modern day Pakistan.... but i still don't know whether it's related to hinduism or if it's just a dance form...can someone give me more info on this...i get confused between this and the other styles e.g. bharatanatyam etc

  • awesome, is kathak related to hinduism... i mean do the moves / steps have religious significance, or is it just purely a form of art?? my fav is kathak.... it's awesome

  • beautiful
