 Indian dance is a blend of nritta
- the rhythmic elements, nritya - the combination of rhythm with
expression and natya - the dramatic element. Nritta is the
rhythmic movement of the body in dance, pure dance. It does not express
any emotion. Nritya is usually expressed through the eyes, hands
and facial movements.
Nritya combined with nritta makes up the usual dance programmes.
Nritya comprises abhinaya, depicting rasa (sentiment) and bhava
(mood).To appreciate natya or dance drama, one has to understand
and appreciate Indian legends. Most Indian dances take their themes from
India's rich mythology and folk legends. Hindu gods and goddesses
like Vishnu and Lakshmi, Rama and Sita, Krishna and Radha are all depicted
in classical Indian dances. Each dance form also draws inspiration from
stories depicting the life, ethics and beliefs of the Indian people.
The fascination for Indian dance all over the world is indicative of
the deep-felt need to use the human body to express and celebrate the
great universal truths. Indian dance does just that in a heightened, reverential
form. Also, since dance is physical and visual, it illuminates India's
culture in a direct manner, playing on the sensibilities of the onlooker.
Thus, those who are attracted to India will find the idiom of dance the
best introduction to India's rich ethos and traditions.
