Bharatanatyam dance guru Anitha Guha who is based in Chennai and known for working on productions with children and young dancers decided to call off the staging of productions lined up at various sabhas.
The deluge did have an impact on her team. "Though not all of them were directly affected, four to five families have lost everything in this disastrous calamity," she says.
And adds, "Hence, it was unanimously decided by all of us to the best of our effort support these families, our make-up artistes and the others affected both monetarily and emotionally. I am very happy that all the parents were more than willing to contribute to the cause even if their children did not have an opportunity to perform this season."
Guha's current production was titled ‘Sarvam Sai ke Samarpanam’ and was a collation of key excerpts from her previous dance productions.
Guha says she will also not perform the nattuvangam throughout the margazhi season in Chennai though the young dancers who learn under her will present solo recitals later at the sabha halls.
