{'kuchipuddi': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'dance form': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'andhra pradesh': [5, 0, 4, 6], 'sticks': [1, 0, 0, 0]}

Option 1 states that both statement A and statement R are true, and that statement R is the correct explanation of statement A.

Statement A claims that Kuchipuddi is performed with sticks. This statement is false because Kuchipudi, a traditional Indian dance form, is performed using footwork, hand gestures, facial expressions, and body movements. There are no sticks involved in the performance of Kuchipudi.

Statement R states that Kuchipudi was born in a village called Kuchipudi in Andhra Pradesh, India. This statement is true. Kuchipudi originated in the 17th century in the village of Kuchipudi, Andhra Pradesh, which is known for its contribution to the dance form.

Therefore, option 1 is incorrect because statement A is false.

Option 2 claims that both statement A and statement R are true, but statement R is not the correct explanation of statement A. This option is the correct answer because statement A is false, and statement R is true but does not explain why Kuchipudi is performed without sticks.

Hence, the correct answer is option 2.
