Stage Matters: Beyond the Classical - A Conversation with Padmini
Join us on Stage Matters for a fascinating chat with Padmini Chettur, a leading contemporary dancer and choreographer. In a genre-bending episode, Padmini takes us from her early training in Bharatanatyam and her eye-opening time at BITS Pilani to becoming a dedicated full-time artist.
She details the decade she spent under the mentorship of the legendary Chandralekha, a period that fundamentally shaped her belief that dance must be political and capable of changing society.
Listen as Padmini breaks down the difference between entertaining an audience and disturbing them, explaining why her work strives for "hyper presence" over the sublime. She also shares the surprising realities of contemporary dance today—from managing a company scattered across cities to her practical advice for aspiring artists on financial sustainability.
Discover what an ideal organizer looks like, the role of failure in a live performance, and why she views the audience as having a responsibility to engage with the art.
Don't miss this deep dive into the philosophy, preparation, and enduring conviction of a major voice in Indian contemporary dance.
