In Bharatanatyam, makeup is not just a superficial addition; it serves to highlight the performer’s facial expressions, making them more pronounced and visible to the audience. Art, in its purest form, stands on its merit, but makeup acts as a powerful tool to enhance the visual impact of a performance, thereby amplifying the beauty of the art.In Bharatanatyam, alta is a bright red dye applied to the hands and feet to enhance the dancer's movements and mudras. The vibrant colour makes hand gestures more visible and dramatic for the audience. Symbolically, red represents energy, purity, and fertility in Hindu traditions, adding cultural significance to the performance. Alta is carefully applied to outline the hands and feet, highlighting their contours. While commonly used in Bharatanatyam, alta is also featured in other Indian classical dance forms like Kuchipudi, Odissi, and Kathak. Its use is a traditional adornment, enriching the aesthetic and cultural experience of the performance.Zaras offers Alta in two forms: liquid and sketch, both in red. The liquid Alta is widely used, while the newly launched sketch Alta is easy to apply and won't drip, even with heavy sweating.Zaras provides a one-stop solution for all your Bharatanatyam makeup requirements, enhancing your beauty and performance alike.
