Q. Which of the following classical dance forms is correctly matched with its well-known exponent?
  1. Kalamandalam Kshemavathy - Mohiniyattam
  2. Kottakkal Sivaraman - Bharatanatyam
  3. Shrimati Lakshmi Viswanathan - Kathak
  4. Shrimati Ningombam Madhabi Devi - Manipuri
Select the correct option from the codes given below:

Answer: Only 1 & 4
Notes: Kalamandalam Kshemavathy is indeed a renowned Mohiniyattam dancer from Kerala, while Shrimati Ningombam Madhabi Devi is a prominent figure in the Manipuri dance form. Kottakkal Sivaraman was famous for his portrayals in Kathakali, not Bharatanatyam. Shrimati Lakshmi Viswanathan is a noted Bharatanatyam exponent, not Kathak. Thus, pairs 2 and 3 are incorrectly matched, leaving only pairs 1 and 4 correctly matched.
