DESCRIPTION
My aim is to present the history, origin, technique and basic principles underpaying the dance forms of Andhra Pradesh. A study of the art architecture and literature through the ages reveals that the art of dances flourished and occupied a special place in the evolution of Andhra Cultire. "Andhri" style refered to by Bharata in his Natyasastra relates to Telgu Land. Popularity of compositions of Kshetrayya, Narayana Tundha, and others richly contributed to the enrichment of various styles. Madhura Bhakti of Atma was a popular theme in the remote past and was replaced by Srinagararasa later on through the popularity of Satyabhama and Nayaka-Nayaki Bhava. Now there is worldwide account of the Lasya and Abhinaya of these forms.
