Application Description

The Digital Revolution of Devarattam

This app was developed as part of my initiative titled "Digital Revolution of Devarattam" under the guidance of Kalaimamani

Mr. M KUMARARAMAN, a retired teacher and recipient of the Kalaimamani award, and Kalaimani Mr. M KANNAN KUMAR as well as Kalaimani Mr. K NELLAI MANIKANDAN from Zamin Kodangipatti, who were honored with the KALAIMAMANI, KALAIMANI, and USTAD BISMILLAH KHAN YUVA PURASKAR awards respectively for their contributions to Devarattam. I dedicate this app to these respected legends, my Guru Mr. E RAJAKAMULU, and the beloved veterans of Devarattam. I developed the Devarattam app to promote Devarattam and its award winners. The app includes detailed information about Devarattam and its honorees. Devarattam is a traditional folk dance from Tamilnadu. Historically and in modern times, it has been performed by the Rajakambalathu Nayakkar community. The dance consists of 32 to 72 steps, with 32 being the fundamental sequences, while the rest are variations built upon these core movements.

Dancers hold a kerchief in each hand, wear Salangai (ankle bells) on each leg, and perform Devarattam to the rhythm of a traditional instrument known as the Deva Thunthumi.
