Question:Okay,let me answer your question professionally..

Kucchipudi-origin: "Tanjore" And Much Similiar To BharatNatyam...

Oddissi-origin: "Orrissa".....

Kucchipudi is performed with bamboo sticks..(in tamil the word ''kuchhipudi'' means ''dance with {bamboo}sticks...they have comparatively more Hand Movement with facial expressions...

Oddissi is performed by wearing colourful attires..the emphasis is laid on leg movement (especially "cross-leg-movement")..they turn their legs very artistically...
