Varnam - Sakhiye Intha Jalam

Composer: Padmashri KN Dandayuthapani Pillai
Raagam: Shankarabharanam
Taalam: Aadi

The main item of a Bharatanatyam repertoire is the Varnam which has majore sections of "Nritta", pure dance and "Nritya", expressive dance. The sentiment of this Varnam is that of Madhurya Bhakti where God is the beloved and the devotee is the lover or Nayika. Mediating between the two is the spiritual preceptor or Guru who plays the role of Sakhi or close friends who knows this intimate romance and seeks to unite them. The Nayika is tormented by sleepless nights and Cupid's love arrows. She describes the Lord as the bearer of the conch and discus.
