Press
Reviews:
Manasvini
Ramachandran, all done up in pink/green danced with the poise
and abandon of a veteran. Her pace was unhurried and confident,
making the picture on stage very sweet.
Chitra
Mahesh, The Hindu, 3/01/03
"Manasvini,
daughter and disciple of Revathi Ramachandran captivated the
audience with her serious approach and abundant enthusiasm
even at this tender age. Her sense of rhythm and impressive
expressions deserve special mention."
