#arangetram
A large chunk of my beautiful immigrant family landed in San Diego today for my niece’s Bharatanatyam recital (arangetram - literally means ascent to the stage). She held the stage, solo, for 2.5 hours, with the longest piece (varnam) lasting 40 minutes! Incredible!

My daughter danced this story in her arangetram. Seeing her enact the disembowelment of king Hiranyakashipu onstage was something else.

Yesterday was my cousins arangetram which was really great, she did an amazing job. It takes years of hard work and dedication to get to that point.

I love classical Indian dancing, especially Bharatanatyam. A girl I went to high school with had an Arangetram at our school and I was invited and I’ve never been the same since. I love the storytelling of it all. It’s so fascinating to me! My country ass loves storytelling so this is it for me!
Is there a thing you enjoy (you do NOT need to know all about it, we are not fandom policing) where you're the only one you know who is into it? What is it? Maybe you already know someone you can talk about it with but it never came up 👀

Shooting my shot: I like Indonesian gamelan music 💝

'Her footwork was crisp, and her stage presence, magnetic.'
Annapoorna Kuppuswamys 'Arangetram: Reflections of a Dancer' poses the question:
'...do we want our art to remain the domain of a privileged few, or can we work to democratise it?'

1 time, my Indian (ex) fiancée was looking to pick a fight w/ me (mind you, she was a classically-trained #Indian dancer, whose Arangetram I had attended) & put on this Major Lazer Lean On video, and said, "You probably think she's sexy, don't you?"

Game over. Can't win 🤣

An arangetram ("ascending the stage") is the debut of someone's mastery of an Indian art form.

It's always a privilege to mix different styles of music and learn about another culture.

Margazhi special: Andal and the evolution of feminine expression
“She watched and waited as you emerged into this world”. These were grandmother Saraswathi’s words to me, as I was preparing for my arangetram. I was an excited nine-year-old who loved to dance and was learning choreography for the first pasuram from the Tiruppavai, Andal’s iconic garland of verses adoring her favourite deity — Krishna.  My special dance debut was at my maternal uncle’s wedding reception in Madras.
