The “Maha Brunda Natyam” (grand group dance) was organised as part of the ‘5th International Kuchipudi Dance Convention’ organised by the state Department of Language and Culture.<\/p>\n

“Jayamu Jayamu” is one of the glorious items of ‘Kuchipudi’ dance choreographed by the legend Vempati China Satyam.<\/p>\n

This 12-minute item was chosen for this year’s group dance at the event. Dancers from across the country as also from countries like US, UAE, UK, Russia, Hong Kong and Mauritius took part in it.<\/p>\n

Ananda Tandavam, another hallmark ‘Kuchipudi’ composition by Vempati China Satyam, presented by Madhavapeddi Murthy at the event stood as the highlight.<\/p>\n

In 2010, over 2,500 ‘Kuchipudi’ artistes had achieved a similar feat in Hyderabad in then undivided Andhra Pradesh.<\/p>\n
