K Santhosh in The Hindu dated 21st April 1999.

“……the exotic dance form called Nagiarammakoothu form Kerala, Margi Sathi, one of its finest exponents displayed the beauty and grandeur of his 1500 year old art in her own composition. ‘Sita Vivaha’ which was the ‘piece deesistant’ of his tow day festival organized by Prasiddha”.

“The audience in the mini hall of the Music Academy (Chennai) is rapt as Margi Sathi Devi performs the nangiarkoothu. What fascinates you is not just the performance itself, but the story that lies behind this ancient art form, the enactment itself and the artiste.”

“It is ineed a Herculean task to script a performance manual for a Ramayana theme, which has a plenitude of tense dramatic situation, woven around a structured story line which strictly conforms of the highly sophisticated technical formats and ritualistic concepts (of Kutiyattam) and is also one complete in itself, The author, who ventured to produce his comprehensive manual, deserves by all means the loftiest of compliments.”
