Saikorians enthralled
Kiran Segal, an exponent in Odissi dance, gave a lec-dem on this form at the Sainik School at Korukonda, near Vizianagaram, recently. A recipient of Padmashri and many other awards, she gave glimpses to the young Saikorians about the cultural heritage of India, and later held the gathering spell-bound with her lucid performance.
She started her performance with a Mangalacharan and enthralled the audience with a solo composition based on a poem by Vanamalidas. She also gave a brief description and relevance of Odissi dance costumes with its historical background.
With the help of two of her students, who accompanied her from Delhi, she also choreographed a composition called `Parijam" in Hamsadhwani Raga.
The cultural fiesta was organized by SPIC-MACAY chapter of Korukonda, and Honey Sharma, wife of the Principal of the school, Lokendra Sharma, inaugurated the function by lighting the lamp.
