On the occasion of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav, NewsBharati has come up with an initiative to celebrate India's Independence. We have tried to attempt to introduce 75 Legendary Women of India who have made immense contributions in their respective fields.
A maestero of both Bharatanatyam and Kathakali dance, Mrinalini Sarabhai was the first woman to learn and perform Kathakali, an art form that is renowned to be performed by only male dancers.
Her contribution is instrumental in publicizing Bharatanatyam outside temples, once again, like it originally used to be. The Founding Director of Darpana Academy of Performing Arts, Mrinalini Sarabhai was married to physicist Vikram Sarabhai.
