Your mail is thought provoking. It's correct that you point out that it may not be ambient to perform "Bharathanatyam" for a mixed diwali crowd. But this is the case with all the cultural shows various organizers put up.
I agree that artists must provide justify the organizers of show and/or
audience. But I was also thinking of getting more organizers and people
to watch a little serious stuff too!
"If I do it well, hopefully it will reach the 5 people like you who
are looking and they will come to my Bharatanatyam show." I am so happy
that you are willing to perform for a small audience. But is that a case
always? Then it would become costlier for the organizers and tickets to
such shows may become beyond reach. After all we need to pay the artistes
and for the logistics.
I have a few other questions that I want to bring up:-
What is the contribution of ICCR at Cultural centres abroad? Can they
help?
