international women's day: 2002

With "Naree" four male dancers pay tribute to Womanhood as a celebration of International Women's Day. Man and Woman are inseparable. Society is incomplete without either one. Through the ages, all our culture systems have forced women to look at the world from the male point of view; it is the men that women ought to please and who make the women their ideological standings. Amidst all this, art, especially theater and dance have traditionally been the only systems which force men to look at the world from a female perspective.

Through "Naree" this is what Smitalay exhibits. Men, with as much understanding portray women's emotions.
