The Chennai-based Bharatanatyam exponent and musicologist Vidya Bhavani Suresh was in Mumbai this weekend to see her daughter-discipline Mahita perform in Chembur. During her visit to the city, the 54-year-old spoke to Swarna Srikanth, sharing how the classical dance form has evolved, the beauty of music that it embraces, and more.
Q. What inspired you towards Bharatanatyam?

Q. Navratri is coming soon. How will you celebrate it with Bharatanatyam?
