“Natya marked by refinement”

“….A superb rendering of Bharatanatyam. Usha performed classical natya in a style that was both attractive & respectable.

“Natya marked by vivid quality”

” It was, indeed, a very accomplished and expressive display of natya…. Her quality stood assertively established in the pacy Alarippu set to the tricky Tisra Dhruvam. The posturing particularly came through vividly beautiful in the kriti, which was preceded by sloka.
