SSC CPO 2024 PYQ — Question 86

The correcct answer is option 4 i.e. Anita Ratnam.

• Anita Ratnam is NOT an Odissi dancer. She is a well-known Indian classical dancer, choreographer, and cultural activist, but her primary expertise is in Bharatanatyam, with influences from other classical dance forms like Kathakali and Mohiniyattam.
• Odissi is a classical dance form from Odisha, and some of the well-known Odissi dancers include Sonal Mansingh, Kelucharan Mohapatra, and Sanjukta Panigrahi. Anita Ratnam, however, is more closely associated with Bharatanatyam and her contemporary dance interpretations.
