Answer 1

Bharatanatyam, (Tamil: பரத நாட்டியம்) also previously called Sadhir Attam, is a major form of Indian classical dance that originated in Tamil Nadu.[1] Bharatanatyam is one of the oldest classical dance traditions in India[citation needed]. It has been nurtured in the temples and courts of southern India since the ancient era.[1][2][3] It is one of eight forms of dance recognized by the Sangeet Natak Akademi [4][5] (the others being Kathak, Kuchipudi, Odissi, Kathakali, Mohiniyattam, Manipuri and Sattriya) and it expresses South Indian religious themes and spiritual ideas, particularly of Shaivism, Vaishnavism and Shaktism.[1][6][7
