Offering Homage to Kuchipudi Guru Vempati Ravi - January 2018

Looking through the window.... What a glorious dancer Vempati Ravi is. He can never be in the past tense. He is alive in our hearts for ever.. So many memories. He is the son of the best of the best dance guru. Dr. Padmabhushan Vempati Chinna Sathyam garu.

We dearly called him master garu.in one of our conversations master garu said "Mrinalini!, Ravi is a better dancer and choreographer than me". If master garu said that , imagine who Ravi is.

He fought with life , till the last minute he taught kuchipudi. I feel extremely fortunate to have danced in the academy where he did Nattuvangam for me. Ravi! Thank you ! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you Ravi! Can you hear me please . With tears from the heart
