Question 68

Dassiyattam is the old name of which famous Indian dance form?

Solution

Dassiyattam (or Dasi Attam) is the ancient name of the renowned Indian classical dance BHARATANATYAM. The term means “dance of the dasis (devadasis)” and refers to the tradition of women devoted to temple service in South India, where the dance originated. Over time, this temple art evolved and was refined. In the early 20th century, a revival movement sought to elevate its stature as a classical art form, renaming it Bharatanatyam and transitioning it from temples to stage performances.
