Vilasini Nataym dance by Swapna Sundari's disciples during Youth Festival 2011 at CP, Delhi
Summary edit
| Description |
English: Vilasini Nataym is a Devadasi art form. It flourished in the temples, courts and public arena throughout Telugu speaking regions, which apart from Andhra Pradesh and Telangana spread to parts of present Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Orissa. The mythological roots trace its lineage back to the celestial nymphs. In Telegu regions temple dancing was patronized by Kakatiya rulers, the Chalukyas, the Vijayanagaram rulers, Madura and Tanjavur Nayaka rulers.
Dance being an integral part of human expression found its sacred place in the temples as rituals. The dancer was equally venerated as the priest of the temple as she along with him performed all the rituals from morning till night through dance and music. [1]
