An interview with bharathanatyam dancer and film actress Rukmini Vijayakumar, who looks back at the classical dance theatre production Prabhavati, that toured the US, Middle East and India last year. Prabavati is an adaptation of a Telugu novel that tells the love story of an Asura princess and was produced to raise money for the charity AIM for Seva. In this interview Rukmini talks about the production and her approach to choreography, costume design and Bharathanatyam dance. Candid rehearsal footage and a stage performance of Prabhavati at Christ College in Bangalore, is inter cut to the original music composed by Thirumale Srinivas. The choreography of Prabhavati makes extensive use of karanas that Rukmini had studied under her guru Sundari Santhanam. The video was filmed and directed by Miles Trevelyan-Johnson, an English cross-cultural musician and documentary maker based in Kerala.
