About the Choreographer:
Mrs. Meenakshi Priya Raghavan is a disciple of Guru Kalaimamani Mrs. Chandra Dhandayuthapani Pillai. For over two decades, Mrs. Meenaksh Priya Raghavan, a student of the Tamil Nadu Government Music College, has been devoting her time and energy for the divine art of Bharatanatyam. She has a number of awards to her credit. `Bala Saraswathi’, `Natya Kala Vipanchee’ and `Natya Sudorli ‘ were among the titles she had own.
Vinayaga Natyalaya is born out of the desire of its founder Mrs. Meenakshi Priya Raghavan to take Bharathanatyam to rural India. With this objective, this institution has started teaching this great art form to village students in and around Chengalpattu. Over 300 students are part of this organization now.
