nice music, nice dance. don't care for the synchronization; 4 people dancing together does not make the dance 4x as good.

She didn't talk much about her performances when we met.  She was mostly focused on promoting her dance academy.  She really appreciated the Indian American community and our patronage towards Indian fine arts.

I asked her if Kuchipudi style has changed over time.  She said yes.

Kuchipudi dance to Annamacharya Sankeerthana. Of coures, it got to be nice music and nice dance .

It does make a delightful sight to watch four equally good dancers in perfect synchronization. Any mistakes can go unnoticed if dancing solo, but if dancing in synchrony with other dancers, even a simple mistake becomes prominent. All the dancers have to be perfect in each of their moves, which is how it was in the above dance #.

I am not surprised that she didn't talk about her performances. Great ppl don't boast abt their achievements. I heard that she's very humble. ya, she's more focused on promoting and passing on the art. Three girls that i know went to her dance academy. I soo wanted to go too, but didn't have the opportunity .

You should have gone.  She is the master of her trade.  She is also very personable and, as you correctly surmised, humble.

I understand what you mean, but value dance and music differently. Regardless, thanks for the video; I enjoyed it.

I should have said that I value dance and music differently than you do.

Though she was offered many movie opportunities, she refused them and dedicated her life to Kuchipudi dance. K. Vishwanath was after her offering her the role in Sankarabharanam. She refused and the role went to Manjubhargavi.
There's only one movie, as far a i know, that she danced in (it's just this one dance. she didn't act in any role in that movie). I was awestruck by the young and pretty shobha naidu when i watched this movie on tv. I am lucky to have found that dance # on youtube the other day. This also happens to be Vani Jairam's first song in telugu industry. I'd like to share that. Be mesmerized!
