Bharat Natyam & The Brahmins
The Bharat Natyam is a dance performance which because of the Brahmin media, has gained much recognition as a form of art. The celebrated Bharat Natya expert, Rukmini Devi admits in a National Geographic video program, that the Bharata Natya was really the art of Devadasis (temple prostitutes) to please their audience and admirers. This is the reason why you might have seen various Bharata Natya's postures in Hindu temples.
