Arangetrams..

While i was reading through the posts in narthaki.com, i came across this page in which a couple of people have expressed their views on Arangetrams. The views are hilarious but extremely thought provoking! I completely agree to what those people have said! While there are a few gurus who still believe in the sanctity of the Arangetram there are many who just look at it as a means of making money! To make things worse, the relatives and the chief guests praise the artiste, even if his/her dance isn't really praiseworthy! This gives the artiste (most of the times aged between 10 - 16) a high and a sense of accomplishment, while they actually haven't done anything commendable! Quite depressing!!! :( :(

  1. This draws a parallel co-existence with the Ph. D model in the US. You know you haven't accomplished anything. But somehow there is a sense of accomplishment forced on you just after publishing one paper. Peanuts, is what it really translates to.
