KĀTHIRUNDHA KĀRIGAI
We have all heard Ramayana. The characters that come to our mind on hearing Ramayana are usually Rama, Sita, Lakshmana, Hanuman and Ravana. They were the key players but,
Who was their backbone when they were playing their part ?
Who was taking care of the kingdom when Rama, Sita and Lakshmana were not around ?
How did Ayodhya manage ?
How did the family run?
The pillar that stood behind in Ayodhya, waiting for the return of the king Rama, sister Sita & husband Lakshmana was Urmila.
Who could this Urmila have been ?
A weak girl who feels powerless after being left behind by her husband.?
Or
An empowered young woman who knew her responsibilities & had the skills and ability to carry them out in her husband's absence ?
Akhila Kavery choreographs and presents her take on this enigmatic character, Urmila.
