Harikatha (హరికథ) Edit
Sutradhari (సూత్రధారి) is the most important person of any Yakshaganam, playing multiple characters of the story. Yakshaganam turned into Harikatha, and it can also be said that both are the very much the same. The reason for this similarity is the single person plays of writings by Palkuriki Somanathudu, Srinathudu, and others. Harikatha consists of various samvaadam (సంవాదం; discussion), padyam (పద్యం; poem), daruvu (దరువు; musical metre), and other features. A Harikatha typically starts off with the following line: ‘భక్తజనులారా! వినండి హరికథ! వినగ వేడుక గలిగే’ (O devotees! Listen to this Harikatha and be delighted!). Known as Harikatha Kalakshepam (హరికథా కాలక్షేపం), the people involved in this artform are known as Harikatha Dasu (హరికథ దాసు) or Harikatha Bhagavatar (హరికథ భాగవతార్).
In the state of Andhra Pradesh, possibly the first known Harikatha artist is believed to be Gokulapati Koormanathakavi (గోకులపాటి కూర్మనాథకవి), from the present-day northern districts. He authored the ’Mrityunjaya Vilaasam’ (మృత్యుంజయ విలాసం) and popularised it [2].
Punjabi dances are an array of folk and religious dances of the Punjabi people indigenous to the Punjab region, straddling the border of India and Pakistan. The style of Punjabi dances ranges from very high energy to slow and reserved, and there are specific styles for men and women. Some of the dances are secular while others are presented in religious contexts.
PUNJAB
The dances are typically performed at times of celebration, such as harvest (Visakhi), weddings, melas (festivals) like Lohri, Jashan-e-Baharan (Spring Festival) etc., at which everyone is encouraged to dance. Married Punjabi couples usually dance together. The husband dances in the style of male Punjabi dances, frequently with arms raised, and the wife dances in the style of female Punjabi dances.
The main Punjabi folk dance for females is giddha or giddhah and for men or for both men and women is bhangda or bhangra.
