  • overall good...except for a few minor aesthetic things. 1) I would suggest a brighter color costume than black (especially since the curtains are the same color. 2) Your hair should be styled or at least controlled (I used to have long hair, and people have told me it was distracting while I danced when I kept it loose). 3) Please shave your armpits!

  • Dear AngikamBuvanam, When the passion/desire to learn is too much, you will end up learning despite what your family says. Looking forward to that day :-)

  • I witnessed 2 entities perform alarippu. First entity - The hair. Second entity - The dancer. Hahahaha!

  • SHIT!!! He did not shave his underarm!!! Does he know what he's doing? His steps are just so exaggerated. Everything - his hair, head, shoulders, torso - are shaking even when he does the most simple step. I think he's trying to make a point desperately. It's always good to keep angasuthan neat, crisp for men unless a more fluent flavour is needed here and there.

  • 03SEP11 Hello from Cairo: Nice dance and movements but the costume - no way. At least this dancer knows what he wants. He has a nice controlled way of moving from one step to another. It means that he is not mechanical while executing these not so easy steps. Bharata Natyam is a DANCE form of India, among several others, and for me I enjoy his style for just that reason. Yes, it is not true bhaata natyam but it's the style that I applaud.. One flaw - the long hair! No hair?
  • hairy armpits are a turnoff...especialy when there are sweat pearls hanging on them or tripping off

  • "Hey, this guy is good~!" love it! Respect to Master Rajendra.

  • what do you call the trousers? where can i find some? ^^ good parva!
