Dear P J Sir,

She is a wonderful dancer. Foot work and 'adavu's are very neat and movements are graceful!

She has a nice neck movement (we call it கழுத்து வெட்டறது!!) What is lacking in this number:

Only 'alaipAyudhE' has the correct choreography! Rest of it is only set to the rhythm of the song.

For example when the lyrics are 'silai pOlavE nindRu', she is supposed to be like a statue, where

as she gives elegant movements! She could have choreographed after leaning the meaning of

the song. Here is the same dance with Rukmini Devi's choreography. Please see the difference!

I was interested to know more about J J and so google searched. :spy:

She happens to be a wonderful singer too. Here is the proof:

More about J J!

Jai-Jagdeesh's journey as a singer began over 20 years ago, in a temple in India, and the soundcurrent

continued all through her childhood. While at school in Amritsar, she traveled around Northern India as

one of the musical representatives of Yogi Bhajan's foreign education program (now Miri Piri Academy),

playing kirtan everywhere the students were invited. Between then and now, her creative spirit has

walked many artistic paths - actress, classical Indian dancer, photographer and writer - and she says "I

find myself in perfect balance now that music has returned to the forefront." She is deeply devoted to

sharing these sacred sounds, and sings them from the center of her heart. Jai-Jagdeesh's first album,

I Am Thine, was a best-seller at Summer Solstice 2011.

.......... My post is just spread that our Culture is appreciated anywhere!!

True that our fine arts are appreciated but I feel bad to see her perform this divine form of dance on a street!!

Sir, I just shared my views as a critic in post #2. No offense please!

Raji Madam

I see her dance on the street in a different way.
Probably her aim is to spread our dance culture in her locality.
