Honoured to be a part of an evening of Odissi at the Odissi Festival 2026 hosted by

led by Guru Soumee De opened with Megh Pallavi — a lyrical and evocative pure dance composition inspired by the mood of monsoon clouds. This was followed by Dasavatar, based on the celebrated Ashtapadi from the Gita Govinda by poet Jayadeva. The piece portrays the ten incarnations of Lord Vishnu and remains one of the most iconic compositions in the Odissi repertoire — weaving together devotion, poetry, rhythm, and dramatic storytelling.

Grateful for the oppoBhaskar's Arts AcademyaIndu Vijaymeless choreographies and traditions.

Thank you for the invitation to perform at the Odissi Festival 2026.

On International Dance Day, I’m filled with gratitude for the art that connects body, mind, and spirit across cultures and time. Dance continues to be a space of expression, discovery, and deep joy.

I’m especially thankful for the opportunity to present Samarasya at the SIFAS Festival 2026…an immersive repertoire experience that celebrates harmony, duality, and oneness.

Grateful to be part of a community that keeps tradition alive while embracing new interpretations.

Here’s to the rhythm that unites us all.
