Methil Devika is talking about dance. She was referring to the lack of recognition for dance and dancers. The response is to Manorama News. Cinema, politics and sports are important. Not many people will come to see our work. So they don’t promote. It does not require a big stage and three thousand people. But we need venues that can seat 500 people or 200 people. Such platforms can be prepared by them.
Another thing is that if the academies are organized here, the remuneration is very meager. But still, kids do. Because they have an opportunity. If you look at it like this, Chennai is also like this. If it is a corporate show, they will pay. None of us do corporate shows. If it’s a show, it’s okay. But who is interested in the show. We are concerted individuals. Or we should be famous. If they are from the film industry, they are famous. I am not saying that they are bad dancers. But Methil Devika pointed out that the difference is terrible. In the interview, it was asked if you feel that if you want to get attention, you have to be a movie actress or have controversy, or you have to be a politician’s wife to get attention. Methil Devika laughingly asked me if he said that only to me. Methil Devika agreed to this and explained about it. I have been known for a long time in my art fraternity. It was only after Badai Bungalow that the public took notice. They said that they really care about the performance that came out of it
