Ahmedabad: In 2018 interview with Toi-Ahmedabad, Pandit Birju Maharaj turned to a tree nearby and said that it reminded him of a dancer who carried out a complicated step.
It compressed his devotion to dance and affection for Ahmedabad in one pulse imagination.
The city seems to reveal to him the secret beauty in the choreography of everyday life: in nature, in the flow of urban routines, and in swaying Saptak Rasikas.
Pandit Birju Maharaj, The Kathak Colossus, died on Monday.
“I broke the heart to hear the news,” said Manju Mehta, The Saptak Legatee.
“The association with Saptak returns at least 35 years.
He never discussed the requirements to appear at the festival.
It exemplifies his relationship with the AHMedabad audience.” If two for Tango, Amdavadis shows that thousands will appear to Kathak.
Love is reciprocal.
“In Saptak 2020, Pandit Birju Maharaj will appear with his nephew Ram Mohan Maharaj,” Prafull Anubhai said, a Saptak Trustee.
“But Ram Mohan is critical and hospitalized.
We are worried about this program.
However, Pandit Birju Maharaj is pressed with the recital.” That year, Panditji’s own health condition and worries about his nephew appeared like a nail on the stage.
But he did not want to disappoint Ahmedabad fans he loved.
So he sang and did Abhinay.
“I would call it dancing Sans Footwork,” Anubhai said.
“Pandit Birju Maharaj is a legendary dancer, vocalist, magician, painter, and poet.” Speaking of nails, in Saptak 2011, Stagehands has not smoothed the performance area correctly, some jutting nails come out.
Pandit Birju Maharaj asked them to attend the task only after completing his first work.
“Musicians can put mattresses on the nails, dancers can have a little problem,” Panditji told attendees while the stage was being repaired.
Laughter jumped around the venue like an ecstatic ballerina.
