Banis / बानी and Schools Are Aplenty
PAPER: 3 Detail Study Of Bharatanatyam, Devadasis-Natuvnar, Nritya And Nritta, Different Bani-s, Present Status, Institutions, Artists Module 18 Institutions Of Bharatanatyam Present day Bharatanatyam banis / बानी and schools are aplenty. There are many branches of main banis and some as far as in New Jersey in USA or Ukhrul in Manipur! Since Bharatanatyam has spread far and wide, each dancer is adding something to what was learnt and trying to extend its boundaries and body. Many dancers are also teachers today, so they are adding new poses or postures and calling it sub banis or schools. Schools today mean individual teaching establishments, not a generic bani or style. It means in one city itself, say small town like Mysore or Baroda, there could be ten schools of Bharatanatyam. Each teaching same dance, differently. In that, there is no standardization. In one area of a big metro like Chennai or Bangalore, Mylapore or Malleswaram, there are over a dozen teachers teaching from same bani differently. This is not to break away as much as what one learnt from a guru and how much. Schools of Bharatanatyam today within one city can be in hundreds, especially nerve centre of dance like Chennai. The Dhananjayans, Chandrasekhars, Ambika Buch, Savitri Jagannath Rao, M.V. 1 Narasimhachari and Vasanthalakshmi, Sheejith Krishna, P.T. Narendran, Shijith Nambiar and Parvathy Menon teach the Kalakshetra style. J. Suryanarayanamurthy, a disciple of the Dhananjayans, is a popular teacher. Sreelatha Vinod, Tulsi Badrinath, Radhika Surajit, Shobana Bhalchandra are ardent disciples of the Dhananjayans and faithfully follow their teachers’ teachings. -

Memory and the Recovery of Identity: Living Histories and The
9 Memory and the Recovery of Identity Living Histories and the Kalavantulu of Coastal Andhra Pradesh DAVESH SONEJI Peddapuram is a town located in the east Godavari district of Andhra Pradesh, about 20 km from the city of Kakinada. It is famous for its celebration of the annual festival (jatra) of the local goddess Maridamma2 in the month ofJyaishtha, and infamous for its rows of brothels. Today, the town of Peddapuram is known for the exceptionally high numbers of pros- titutes who inhabit its streets. Many of them are kalavantulu. These women work in the brothels of towns like Peddapuram as the result of a complex social, political, aesthetic and cultural restructuring that began in the nine- teenth century. One of the senior-most kalavantulu living in Peddapuram is Jakkula Radha. Today Radha sells bidis (tendu-leaf cigarettes), candy, and other confectionary at a small stall outside her home. For about an hour after I met her, Radha refused to discuss her kalavantula identity. Instead, she talked about the fact that she has converted to Christianity, because the local mission pays her Rs 60 (about $2) per month for maintaining a Christian lifestyle. 3 When she finally began to speak openly about her past, she insisted on continuing our conversation elsewhere. We helped her into our Ambassador car and started to back out of the lane on which her house "V 285 284 Performing Pasts Memory and the Recovery of Identity was located. Sure enough, four young men rushed out from nearby houses, and provide us with insights that cannot be found elsewhere. -
