Bharathanatyam is one of the classical indian dance forms. The art is about 2000 years old. Many Tamil children start to learn the art of Bharathanatyam at a very young age. Traditionally, the dance expresses South Indian mythology and themes. Nowadays Bharathanatyam can also be used to express contemporary themes or social and political messages. I had the great opportunity to work with some great Bharathanatyam dancers. All of them dance and study this art with great passion and determination. As a photographer, it is always interesting to create different kind of moods and emotions with a dancers unique expression and style.
