Muslim girl makes historic dance debut

Orissa POST

October 04, 2025

When 16 year-old Sabri performed her 'arangettam' Thursday on the Kerala Kalamandalam stage, she not only realised her "long-cherished dream," but also scripted a new page in the history of the state's near century-old famous arts institution by becoming the first Muslim woman to perform 'Kathakali.'

- PRESS TRUST OF INDIA

Her maiden rendition was also the culmination of a Kalamandalam guru to see the famous and respected institution train a Muslim woman perform Kerala's iconic dance form.

During Vijayadashami, Sabri made her debut on the Kerala Kalamandalam stage here Thursday, and called it an "unforgettable experience."

Following her 'arangettam' or debut, in which she performed the 'Krishna vesham purappadu,' Sabri told PTI, "I am very happy that I was able to achieve my dream today (Thursday). Dance is my passion."
