Kathak
Kathak is a distinguished North Indian classical dance form characterized by its intricate footwork, rapid pirouettes, and expressive storytelling through facial and hand gestures. Rooted in ancient temples and courts, Kathak has gradually evolved into sophisticated, rhythmic movements and emotive expressions.
My journey with kathak began at the age of eight. I was profoundly influenced by my mother, a professional Kathak dancer.

Performing fills me with unparalleled fulfilment and joy. It also provides a creative outlet that and balances out my life wonderfully . It has instilled in me discipline, perseverance and a deep love for the arts. These are qualities that I draw upon for time to come .
