From the preview screening of Kerala Crime Files at Kochi. This was the first time I walked the 'red carpet' and talked to the press in front of the banners. Got to share the space with the amazing artists and technicians whom I worked with and also who came to watch the premiere. So grateful for this experience!
Image 3 and 4 are @zhinzshan@navas.vallikkunnu and me talking about the fun we had shooting the grocery store scene.
Thank you everyone for the response to KCF!

Felt beautiful yesterday... Just felt like dancing to this beautiful melody by Ilayaraja, thanks to @parvathygeetha 's baby who was humming to this in the car. Generally I'm very lazy about recording or posting videos, but yesterday it just felt good.
PS: I had written a lovely little caption and tried to upload it last night but Instagram didn't allow it for some reason. So trying it again this morning

A little something that came out at the end of a 2h jam session; would you believe it we told you this was borne out of a korvai of the Ragamalika jathiswaram? 😅

- IT’S HAPPENING! ✨ -
my smol brainchild, “What am I doing?”, is travelling to Mumbai and Bangalore in April ✈️
it’s a story of love, of existentialism, of some chatpati baatein, and of this beautiful “other” world 🩷
make sure you catch it at your nearest venue 🙈
this world has become what it is because of:
@_vishwaprasannart_ , who IS the music of this piece and has been here, every single day, since before I started working on it 🫶🏼
@devakirajendran , who has been the constant voice of inquiry and support, and gave wings to this piece 🫶🏼
@netra.therapy , who has become my consultant on speed-dial as I dive deeper into understanding the nuances and intersectionality of neurodivergence 🫶🏼
thank you so much @altipalti_festival and @aangan_space for taking a chance with this artiste’s quirky little story 🫶🏼
and a big thank you to all my dear friends for all their love and critical feedback that has made this piece what it is today 🫶🏼
having said that, “What am I doing?” is in different places, every weekend of April so book your ticketsss sooonnnn (links in bio) and I’ll see you theree! 🫶🏼🥹

It's been a while, eh?!
Happy New Year.
Thought I'd share a small video from the early stages of my exploration for the scratch night for the Momentum programme by @theatreadinfinitum at @bristololdvic1766
Feels good to start the new year with something creative - playing, moving, listening..
I look forward to sharing this very early stage of this piece with the world.

In 2024, London Adavu hosted its first-ever Summer School! 6 artists and 6 distinct approaches.
The response, dancing, learning, and the conversations that emerged made it a truly special and memorable experience.
Here’s Devaki Rajendran, theatre, film and Bharatanatyam artist, sharing about her workshop Nātakam — and how she approached the idea of the moving actor ✨
