@Arunitaaa31 It has a Hindu origin. Culturally however, its scope is wider than Hindu culture. Kathak went to Mughal courts. That's how we also have non-devotional numbers such as taranas and compositions with salaami. Traditional taranas are a big part of Kathak as we know Kathak today. I think taranas were not performed in temples in pre-mughal India. With Mughals came khayaal singing and with khayaal came things such as taranas into Kathak. Best of whatever I understand. Also, not all thumris are devotional or about Krishna. They have shringaar ras and/but aren't about deities.

Reminded me of a must attendance to the annual music conferences at the openair theater at the Bagh e Jinnah Lahore. Thats where i witnessed Gopi Krishan dance and Begum Akhtar sing. That was early 60s, arranged by the (I think) owner of Hayat Auction Mart. Wish I had discussed all this when Bina visited Qadir Nagar some years back.

Absolutely brilliant work Hajera! So proud of you!

Bina Jawwad is a lighthouse in the deep darkness. Salute!!

Thanks Hajera to let us know Bina Jawwad. ♥

I feel sorry for the artists accross the border. I mean here in India(the part I am from) if you are learning Kathak/Bharatnatyam etc. This makes a girl much more respected. Like they are keeping the culture alive.

Hats off Didi.its not you who choose kathak, it's kathak who choose you.❤

Short and informative

Great work Hajera! I definitely learned something more about Pakistani culture today :)

Min. 9:38 "...But when I used to dance, I would just dance for...I don't know, some higher power ". Well, I think this wonderful lady - Bina Jawwad - wants to say that she was dancing for the sake of art. That ( very well said ), "higher power" is ART. Because... "Art evokes the mystery whithout which the world would not exist". "Art is a lever on human nature that enhances sociability. If humans are social beings it is in part, beacuse art is conducive to this". "Art expresses the beauty and the harmony of the Universe and we are part of it." And so on... Thank you!

Nice

it's sad how our own leaders have made a mockery of our ideology. Dance is a religion in itself - it teaches love and oneness through story telling, just like Islam.

A Pakistani researcher said Indians danced for god's and they did not turn their back to god's. If it was Krishna dance it should not have turning and circles. According to that researcher Mr Faqir Hussain Saga. Kathak originated in courts if Mughals. It was for kings.
