Kalamandalam Gopi on Natyadharmi and Lokadharmi schools of Kathakali
In an interview with Raghu P. Kalamandalam Gopi on Natyadharmi and Lokadharmi schools of Kathakali says:
I am not the first person who introduced Lokadharmi ( a school of acting, non-stylised and realistic ) to Kathakali. The credit goes to late Kalamandalam Krishnan Nair. I have added a component of Lokadharmi, without disturbing Natyadharmi (classical school).
