Shankar Kandasamy. Creativity in Covid19 Lockdown #video

I wrote a Padam in Tamil which exclusively uses only one Hasta Mudra – Kartarimukha …

Using the Viniyogas from Abhinaya Darpanam and common usages through tradition!!!

It was a challenge to write it, tune it and dance it..

Nandakumar Unnikrishnan was kind enough to sing my composition…and sang it so beautifully, giving it life…

In this Coronavirus confinement I tried to creatively confine myself to artistic possibilities with just one hand gesture… the game in Confinement and creative possibilities…

Those who know Tamil hopefully will appreciate and enjoy… the philosophical note…
