00:00Today is the 50th anniversary of Arangetram, which took place in 1974.
00:05Yesterday was the exact completion of 50 years of Arangetram.
00:10So, this is the celebration of 50 years of Arangetram.
00:12For 50 years, we have been connected to the stage as a dancer, as a choreographer, as a teacher, as a conductor.
00:19So, there are a lot of roles.
00:21First, I went to learn for a few years.
00:24After that, I started doing all that I had learned.
00:31Then I started teaching children.
00:33I have been teaching children for 30 years.
00:35I have an organization called Natya Vriksha.
00:37So, I think I got to learn a lot for 50 years.
00:42I came in the company of a lot of good people.
00:47I performed in a lot of good places in India and abroad.
00:51So, I think this is a landmark for me.
00:56And it is a privilege.
00:58And I think it comes with a lot of responsibility.
01:02Because when you become a senior, it is very important to give direction.
01:08Because in today's world, there are so many distractions.
01:12And there are so many questions in the minds of children.
01:17So, it is very important for them to turn in a good way.
01:26You have been a teacher for 30 years.
01:31Do you have any children in the present?
01:34Whose parents say that this is not happening to them.
01:38You should go to a professional lobby.
01:40No, I don't think so.
01:42I think it depends on the teacher.
01:45How this dance is presented in context.
01:50Because everything has a context at all times.
01:53And I think that context needs to be constantly reinforced with the kids.
01:57And if you say things out of context, then obviously there is no acceptance for it.
02:02So, I think it is very important to put it in context and context.
02:06I have a third question.
02:08Every student who comes to the dance field cannot be Sonal Mansoor, Geeta or Shobha.
02:17So, what are the reasons for the failure?
02:21I don't think there is any failure.
02:23I think the process of teaching is so capable.
02:29That once one goes through the stage of dance education, his life changes.
02:37So, I don't think everyone can become a dancer.
02:40But this training is very enriching in itself.
02:44And it fills the Indian tradition with passion.
02:49So, I think the process of learning is unique in itself.
02:54And I don't think everyone needs to become a dancer.
02:58But the education they get,
03:01whatever they do, whether they become a CA, a media person or whatever,
03:07but the identity, the Indian identity, the Indian tradition, the Indian heritage,
03:12the whole process of dance education,
03:18I think that is more important.
