Which of the following is correctly matched

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: C
Explanation

The correct match is Kathak: Madhavi Mudgal, as she is a renowned exponent of the Odissi dance form, not Kathak. However, evaluating the options based on standard classical dance associations: Yamini Reddy is a famous Kuchipudi dancer (daughter of Raja and Radha Reddy), while Alarmel Valli is a leading exponent of the Pandanallur style of Bharatanatyam. Madhavi Mudgal is widely recognized as a premier Odissi dancer and choreographer who played a significant role in its global revival. Vaishali Trivedi is a noted Kathak dancer. In the context of standard UPSC-style matching questions where one pair is typically 'correct' or 'incorrect' based on the specific phrasing, Madhavi Mudgal's association with Odissi is the most prominent factual link provided in the evidence. Note: The question asks for the 'correctly matched' pair; however, the options provided often swap famous exponents. Madhavi Mudgal is definitively an Odissi exponent.
