Platinum jubilee celebrations of Kadri Nritya Vidyalaya concludes

September 12, 2011

Mangalore, September 12: Research, experiments, innovation and creativity is quite essential for the survival of any art for Corporate Affairs M Veerappa Moily.

He was delivering presidential address at the valedictory ceremony of the platinum jubilee celebration of Kadri Nritya Vidyalaya at Town Hall here on Sunday evening.

Mr Moily said an art form can survive by making necessary modifications based on its classical back ground and tradition, failing which Indian art forms would lose their value in the days to come, he said.

“The essence of every art form is dependent on the region and culture it hails from. But the culture of region keeps changing like a flowing water and the art form should undergo necessary modifications”, he said.

Art critic A Eshwariah said that in the recent years 100-200 Vidwath performances are held in the coastal region every year.

Two to three Ranga Pravesha programmes are held every month. The society and community have changed in the last two-three decades, he said.

Malathi Moily, Educationist A J Shetty, litterateur N Damodar Shetty and other were present.

Thiruvananthapuram, Apr 14: Amid Covid-19 lockdown,

Keralites celebrated a low key "Vishu" ,the Malayalam new year, on Tuesday, hoping that days of plenty, prosperity and peace will return.

People woke up in the early hours to see the auspicious "Vishu kani", symbolising hope, promise and fine prospects they wish to have in the year ahead.

The ritual comprises arranging on platters auspicious articles like seasonal fruits, vegetables, flower, gold and clothes which together form the first sight when the family members wake up on the Vishu day.

Normally, Keralites dressed in their traditional attire throng temples across the state.

However, this year due to the lockdown restrictions, temple visits were given a go by.

The famed Sri Krishna temple at Guruvayur and the Lord Ayyappa shrine at Sabarimala witnesses heavy rush of devotees during the vishu day.

But pilgrims were not allowed inside and only temple officials and security personnel were present for the"Vishu kani".

Rehaman, a small time trader, said very few people have come out for vishu purchases due to the restricitons.

It is fine as it is for a good cause, while Radha, a young woman said she could not celebrate the festival.

"We have no money, no job. With whatever little we have, we are celebrating the festival", she said.

87-year-old Vilasini Nambiar, a retired college professor, said vishu has visited the state during a most bewildering time.

"It should however remind us that every mountain must have its valley, desert its oasis, every storm cloud its rainbow, every night its day.

We are prepared to believe that we will overcome this misfortune", she said.

President Ram Nath Kovind, Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, Home minister, Amit Shah, Kerala Governor, Arif Mohammed Khan and Chief Minister, Pinarayi Vijayan, were among those who greeted people on the occasion of Vishu.
