Kathak is one of India's eight classical dance forms and has its origins in Uttar Pradesh. It began as a storytelling tradition in ancient North Indian temples, with performers called "Kathakars" narrating tales through movement. Kathak evolved significantly during the Mughal period, incorporating Persian influences that enriched its style. The dance form is characterized by precise footwork, rapid spins (chakkars), and expressive gestures. Notable Kathak masters include Birju Maharaj, Sitara Devi, and Kumudini Lakhia, who have contributed greatly to its development and popularity.
