was maya 83yrs in the pic given? i dont think so and i definately dont think that she could hop like that (shown in pic) at 83. good dancing is nowhere related to popular dancing/dancers. i think sudharani raghupati is wonderful, but she could/did not do a single jati and one cant exxpect perfect or a normal araimandi from her at this age.
what ever anyone says, its an eternal truth that body wears out over time. here iam not talking abt knowlege or popularity, iam talking of that araimandi or doing a jati in 3rd speed or the complex trikaala jati thats done in the beginning of a varnam. yes, one can wear out at 20, but can bouce back too, but 80 one definately wears out. again, its not just abt good health and fitness, but the fact that ur knees were not like before, your skin has so many wrinkles and ur waist has not got that appeal anymore, given the fact that one has a couple of children meanwhile....
