Today on the 8th episode of, "The Billion Dreams" we invite you to meet an incredible personality, an epitome of how gracefully one can live beyond one's age and chase dreams that seem impossible to others. She is not just a person that inspires Ashish Vidyarthi but she is an inspiration to all of us at Avid Miner. Battling alone with COVID twice to making bold career decisions, and dealing with life's twists and turns yet looking at life enthusiastically each day, there's so much to learn from her.
Meet Seetha Ratnakar, a seasoned television director, who boasts over four decades of media experience. Commencing as an advertising agency copywriter, she transitioned to directing Doordarshan programs in 1975. Notably, she held the position of Assistant Station Director at Doordarshan. Trained in Bharatanatyam and Kuchipudi by respected Gurus, she danced extensively before pivoting into dance programming. Beyond this, Seetha Ratnakar's directorial prowess extended to dance programs for Doordarshan where she directed performances of India's top dancers, now preserved in archives. Notably, she helmed the acclaimed dance ballet "Rasavrishti," India's entry at the Golden Prague Festival (1985). Her passion for preserving classical and folk arts is evident through her work in short films. In recognition of her impact, she was featured in an illustrated talk titled "The Dancing Frame: Doordarshan and Beyond." Her documentary "Cosmic Connection," pays tribute to her enduring artistic connection with Lord Nataraja and the world of art and culture. Presently she is engaged in creating short films while being actively involved in the conservation and dissemination of the extensive repertoire of folk songs and musical compositions by Dr. Vinjamuri Anasuya Devi.
We hope that Seetha Ratnakar's story inspires you just as much as it has inspired us.
